high society

This autumn is about slicing through to that high society; coming away with credentials stamped with landmark victories and new-found respect from Test powerhouses.

The BBC has spoken to some of those who attended to hear how high society turned to bitter disappointment.

The event on Sunday was supposed to be a glamorous affair with ballroom dancing and music, similar to that enjoyed by the members of Regency high society in the hit series.

“It was amazing - people of all ages and classes came out, from rickshaw pullers to high society people, there were families taking selfies with army officers. We were shouting and celebrating for a new Bangladesh.”

That’s not something that ever interested me — the high society of New York City at that time.
