DOCTOR WHO NOTES.
culturally - in the cast the characters were all British white.
not culturally diverse. Susan Ian Barbara all white.
reflected on 1960s Britain. Women were seen as 'crazy' or 'weak' all men were smart and knew what they were doing .
girls gossiping.
Susan is subversive as she does not know what how many shillings their were in a pound however knew the future and knew a whole lot of other things that were not on her level of age as a teenager.
However normal as she is listening to pop music but weirdly dancing. not a normal teenager because other girls are into hair , makeup , gossip but she is into books and not a typical teenager .
socially awkward because she is unearthly.
historically - the space race competing to land on the moon sci - fi TV show = TARDIS (time travel)
socially - Susan subverts the stereotypes of a typical female teenager as she is intelligent and knowledgeable .
CLASS NOTES.
culturally - women seen as powerful / superior as ms Quill is in charge and is protecting a man .
more culturally diverse / BAME community
disabled mother / gay man - charlie and Matteuz - Aprils mother
women that are powerful in the scene - ms Quill, April , Aprils mother / dominant
diverse ensemble cast
reinforces female stereotypes
April has had a broken family / broken home more of a different teenager but similar situations as a teenager.
Tania is a conventional character as she had moved from year 10 to sixth form because of her intelligence .
