Sean Connery's barbarian in Zardoz is clearly not a nerd, but he is an interloper - fairly explicitly in this case a figure of class mobility.

Cummings and I have in common the happenstance of having had a special needs teacher for a parent, but he also has a Lord Justice of Appeal for an uncle. He may be from one of those families where different class backgrounds meet. And then there is the ascent via private school and Oxford into public life. It seems fair to say that he is not entirely of the class into which he has inserted himself.
disruption is usually the weapon of the relatively impotent.
