Barnaby Harrington is a character role-played by BenjaminSymons.
Barnaby Harrington is an Eton College dropout. His dad is a high-profile British politician, which means that despite failing his entry exams, Barnaby is granted a place at the prestigious school. After a year, it is clear that Barnaby has no interest in the world of academia or politics. So, despite protestation from his parents, he leaves Eton and returns to the family home in Chelsea, London, where he remains for the next five years pursuing his loves of playing sport, fox hunting, fishing and drinking fine wine.
Aged twenty-three, his Eton peers are returning home with undergraduate degrees from prestigious universities around the globe, along with life experience and easy tickets into some of the highest paid jobs in the capital city. Whereas, Barnaby graduates from half a decade of amateur-level polo and solidly working his way through his parent’s wine cellar. It’s at this moment that Barnaby’s parents, whose patience has been mightily stretched, sit him down for an intervention.
Of course, being from an upper-class British family, the intervention starts with tea and scones and a glass of Dom Perignon. It culminates in gently advising him that he can no longer continue drinking their cellar into oblivion, and that he needs to go out into the world to learn the value of money, life’s experiences and a hard days’ work. As they delicately put it, he can “no longer be a sponge on the family bank account and should instead become a sponge for adventure”.
Naturally, given the circumstances, Barnaby chooses the hub of all culture and diversity, Los Santos to open his mind. Barnaby is friendly and confidently spoken, with a “high society” London accent. He loves the mirror and always dresses to impress in chinos, boat shoes and a button down shirt. Despite his outwardly twattish appearance, he has a kind heart and in reality is innocent of the world because he has experienced so little of it. So with every unique experience Barnaby has, his view of life will shift.
