Class: In this video class is represented in a positive way as it shows Prince William and Princess Kate leaving a 'posh' London hospital with their new born baby and future king 'George'. The class is highlighted on the video as it says in big bold white writing "Royal Baby Makes 1st Appearance" this shows what class the family itself is as it is not being described as any ordinary baby, it is being described as a 'Royal Baby', better than all other baby's. This video also represents the royals in a positive manor as the film shows Kate&William smiling and the large crowds cheering for them, making it seem like a huge and special occasion, instead of showing just an average family leaving the hospital, this again shows the class of the family as they have to be watched and interviewed instead of them just leaving the hospital like a normal family.
Gender: In this Film 'Green Street Hooligans" men are represented in a negative way as they are portrayed to be Hooligans who just want to fight and cause trouble all of the time. This is not the case as not all men are into fighting a causing trouble at football matches, the majority are actually decent working people with families. It also makes men out to be obsessed with football, when in reality not all men are fans of football.
Age: In this video age is represented in both a negative and a positive way. It is shown in a negative way as in the video it is showing how the elder generation of people are discriminated against and are rejected from certain jobs because of their age. However it also shows that the elderly are able to work, just like younger people, it shows that they are still able to battle for what they deserve and that they should not be discriminated against.
Sexuality: In Eastenders a Muslim character called 'Sahid' came out as gay on the show, due to him being from a Muslim family, Sahid being homosexual was portrayed in a negative way. This could also link into Race as it is portraying people of the Muslim faith in a bad way due to the Muslim family in Eastenders not accepting their sons sexuality.
Race: This is a positive representation of a particular race (jewish) due to it eliminating any stereotypes of the jewish culture. In this TV show we can see that this family is not anything other than the standard british family. This family in 'Friday Night Dinner' is completely different to you're stereotypical Jewish family as they do not have the characteristics of the Jewish religion, as none of them are wearing traditional Jewish clothes.
