The clip from last year

Representation of Age

This last came up as a topic in January 2013 so is not likely to come up this year but it is best to be prepared! Read over the powerpoint, the past answers (from 2009 - clip included) and think about how age was represented in the clips we have looked at (Dr Who, Rose and Queen Victoria, Misfits, Skins and possibly Dr Who and Martha)



Past Answers based on Monarch of the Glen

Extra Revision Material for Audience and Institutions

As the exam approaches I will up load any resources that I find to this post.  Keep checking back to see if there is new stuff.  Other schools across the country will have done difference case studies so don't worry if you see things we have not done.  The topic is huge and all teachers will do things in different ways!
