Look at a text which represents you (your age group, gender, religion, race) are these representations? Who do you think is creating the representation? Is it someone like you? Why do we need to consider these representations?

The Inbetweeners
The inbetweeners are a group of lads a couple of years older than me. They represent youth and having a good time and joking around. They do what they want and aren't too bothered about the consequences as long as they are having a good time. The people creating these representations are all of the four lads themselves. They portray themselves as your average group of boys getting up mischief but it is slightly exaggerated for humour. The group in a way are similar to me which is why I can relate to the series but they are meant to be slightly geeky and stupid and find themselves in situations I wouldn't ever want to be in/have never been in. We need to consider these representations as they have a direct impact on what audiences watch the show.
