Are we talking actual class (ie, middle class folk earn around £25k), or strange British perception of class (middle class folk earn £50k and send Jemima and Tarquin to private school)?

Well, like I said, middle class folk tend to be in the middle income bracket - the sociologists and demographers will argue where one class ends and the other begins.
I reckon the average middle class person in the UK will tell you they're working class. It's only the upper middle class that'll think about admitting to it, and then only if they're not Guardian readers

I always thought it was about level of education, and profession, rather than income. David Beckham is hardly middle class. Doctors, Teachers, Lawyers, etc = Middle Class. Of course some professions are pretty specialist and don't require high level qualifications, yet still command large salaries, but I suppose anything that requires a fair amount of specialist training/study/skill could be considered a Middle Class profession, whereas something that doesn't could be considered Working Class. Progression to high level within an industry could elevate the person to Middle Class status as well; you could in theory progress from shelf-stacker to managerial level, but you would need to possess particular skills and abilities to do so in a very competitive environment.

Additional middle class identifiers include...
Anchovies
Capers
More than one type of olive oil
Olives
