Introduction to question:
Explain how stereotyping in British TV Drama and British Film contributes to a sense of collective identity.
The notion of collective identity suggests how we as a population of society are a part of a collective group. Living in a media saturated world, many people are influenced by what we see and hear and gain a sense of belonging to a particular group, by conforming to the norms of that specific style. Many media texts including British film and TV drama, contribute to the way in which we see ourselves, as it often mirrors many norms of our society we live in. People feel a connection with many characters in certain films and TV drama series, if they have ever been in similar positions or experienced the same problems.
Stereotyping plays a huge impact on the way we perceive others around us as well as ourselves, and British television representing these connotations to us as an audience influences the way we act and adapt to modern society and how we live.

Well done Rebecca. A good try, make sure that your choice of expression is actually communicating your ideas clearly.
