Mary, the manager, is tasked with the job to improve the restaurants reputation for being the poorest fired chicken restaurant in London. Each of these characters have to overcome many obstacles on the way; Joe confessing his love for Amara, and Derek achieving the role as manager and over throwing Mary. Fried is a British comedy featuring an outstanding sense of humour that appeals to all audiences.]]> 2018-04-29 21:16:24 UTC https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256341993 n2taylor https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256341999 Producers-

The content that the BBC mostly broadcast is for a certain dominant audience member; some one who is male, lives in North west England, works in media or publishing, and politically leans to the left.]]> 2018-04-29 21:25:12 UTC https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256342787 n2taylor https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256343449 Aired on the 25th August 2015, and featuring 1 season and 6 episodes.

In this spectacularly funny episode Derek tries to relive his life as a youth, when he used to perform in a band. In his journey to reliving his youth he recruits a young homeless bus boy as his guitarist. Derek is a middle aged, white, male. In the eyes of an ISA member, Derek is the most dominant character. However in this Tv drama, Derek is represented as a creep "Dereks creep jar", very promiscuous, envious of youth and he sits in a management position beneath Mary (a woman). The way in which Derek is represented in Fried completely challenges the ideologies enforced by moral entrepreneurs because in many ways he is the least powerful character. Derek is also demonised throughout this program, which also refers to Althussers theory on how the Moral entrepreneurs create representation in order to demonise folk devil.]]> 2018-04-29 21:43:15 UTC https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256345076 n2taylor https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256518607 Mary is the Senior manager of the fried chicken restaurant. Throughout this episode Mary feels lonely because of the recent break up with her ex husband. Mary tries her luck with an customer. After being told that the customer had died from the chicken nugget Mary sold him, she protests against the company, driving herself mad. Mary is represented as gullible, stupid, promiscuous and lonely. Mary seems to be more in conflict with her fellow adult employees rather than the youth employees. This is a complete juxtaposition from the previous case studies we have explored. It seems as though in this TV Drama the conflict between the adults and youth are challenged as we don't actually see them interact with each other. However, that said, the fact that they don't interact with each other also means that these two groups are separated. Its as if, no matter what, youth and adults will never get along even if there isn't any conflict.]]> 2018-04-30 14:03:06 UTC https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256518607 n2taylor https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256527419 Ed is the restaurant Mascot. In this episode Ed finds an old, mouldy chicken nugget underneath the cooker. Upon examination Ed realises that the burnings on the nugget appear to mimic the image of Jesus. Ed believes that this chicken nugget is his ticket to riches if he was to sell it. Ed is represented as stupid, very promiscuous, lazy, immature and in conflict with old people. Ed is the most stereotypical character to represent youth. This is of course if we were to see it from the point of view from the ISA.]]> 2018-04-30 14:18:24 UTC https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256527419 n2taylor https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256533396 Amara is an youth employee at the 'seriously fried chicken' restaurant. in this episode, she finds herself falling for an homeless bus boy that plays music outside the shop window. Amara invites this young boy to play in Derek's new band. Amara is represented as promiscuous, rebellious against her father, lazy but quite powerful; this is because both Joe and the bus boy fancy her and she has the power to string them both along (Joe would do anything for her).]]> 2018-04-30 14:28:38 UTC https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256533396 n2taylor https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256536925 Language-
At the very beginning the scene opens with Ed bragging about the "fittest girl" he pulled. He uses derogative language to describe his interest in girls. Ed also talks about how he wants to go to university so that he can become a Gynaecologist.

Behaviour-
Throughout this episode Amara behaves flirtatious towards the musical bus boy.

Costume-
Amara wears a black tight dress and a lot of make up when she dates the bus boy. This costume is used to spark a sexual interest in her from the boy which also tells me that she is promiscuous.]]> 2018-04-30 14:35:12 UTC https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256536925 n2taylor https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256549925 Costume-
Both of the two youth employees wear uniform, however they are the only two that do not wear caps (the full uniform). To me this shows that they do not take their job seriously and they do not care about the reputation of the company. They are lazy on the job if they can't even be bothered to wear the full uniform.

Behaviour- 
Judging on their behaviour i get the impression that they carry themselves with low energy apart from Ed. It shows that they are bored and do not want to do the long hours]]> 2018-04-30 14:57:49 UTC https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256549925 n2taylor https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256553736 Language-
When Amara begins to fancy the bus boy she mentions "my dad is going to hate him". she is behaving rebellious towards her father just because he knows it will upset him.

Behaviour-
When it is explained to Ed that most patients for Gynaecologists are old women, Ed behaves in a disgusted manor as if he wants to throw up. This shows that he dislikes old people.]]> 2018-04-30 15:05:42 UTC https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256553736 n2taylor https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256558316 Two out of the three youth employees wear a formal uniform, whilst Ed is dressed in a Chicken Mascot costume. On top of that, Ed is overall represented as promiscuous, and unintelligent. These are all qualities i would describe an animal with, hence forth the chicken outfit.]]> 2018-04-30 15:14:23 UTC https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256558316 n2taylor https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256561483 Adults in this series include colleges and managers. They all interact with each other and strangely enough that are all in conflict with each other "ill put you at a f*cking angle". 

The adults are represented as more powerful and higher than the youth because all managers are adults and they are in charge of the other employees.

The adults are too represented as promiscuous; "I used to always be onto of Garith, we used to do role play. Id be the kidnapper onto and he'd be the kidnap victim, just lying there silently underneath, as i the didn't want to be there". 

Overall i think that this TV Drama challenges the representation of the dominant collective group; The adult Derek is represented as being envious of youth. When he speaks to the young employees he mentions that he used to be in a band when he was a youth "that cool enough for you". Its as if he is trying to impress the youngers, to show that he is "on trend" (getting their approval). The only person in this series that is of the dominant ideology is Derek, yet he is the least respected and powerful person; He is in a management position below a women and he is envious of youth. This Tv show seems to challenge social conventions in the most realistic way possible, personally.]]> 2018-04-30 15:20:57 UTC https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256561483 n2taylor https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256569646 We follow the character Joe on his journey to swaying Amara into liking him. We as the audience want Joe to achieve his goal. This for sure engages the audience and makes us continue to watch on to see if he actually manages to finally sway Amara.We as the audience know that Joe fancys Amara through the media language; camera work; showing multiple two shots to show connection between the two characters. The dialogue also helps us to realise that Joe likes Amara, he say this directly to Ed when he is asking for advice.]]> 2018-04-30 15:35:47 UTC https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256569646 n2taylor https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256575293 The audiences identify with the character who best reflects their own values and interests. We as the audience identify most with the character Joe. Not all of us share his opinions, however Joe is the most neutral and realistic character on the showing this helps us to identify him as the main character aswell]]> 2018-04-30 15:45:15 UTC https://padlet.com/n2taylor/vl9fslmxjyfl/wish/256575293
