Abrahams? Atkins? Arnold? Stephen Fry reflects on why we remember old classmates whose surnames occur at the beginning of the alphabet. According to a professor of economics at Colorado University, the initial of your surname (if you're a man) may affect your life chances. The nearer A you are, the better. The professor’s surname is Zax. First broadcast on Fry's English Delight, 6 August 2019.
