Introduction Redraft


This essay will examine the way in which British teenagers are represented in these TV programmes The Inbetweeners (2008), Skins (2007), My Mad Fat Diary (2013) and This Is England 86, 88, 90 (2010-15). Representation is the description or portrayal of someone or something in a particular way. Representations as they can change a persons opinion on a certain subject due to the way the media portrays something, this shows that representations are very powerful in shaping the thoughts of people. Furthermore representations in the media allow people to gain a better understanding of the specific topic that they are looking at.

  1. Joel, I am copying this sentence from your introduction because as it stands it's not really making sense.

    Representations as they can change a persons opinion on a certain subject due to the way the media portrays something, this shows that representations are very powerful in shaping the thoughts of people.

    Please can you have a look at it and make sure that your meaning is clear. Also, please can you explain more fully what you mean with the very last point about representations allowing for better understanding of a topic, perhaps by providing an example or some evidence.
