Little Britain’S Fictional Teenage Single Mother, Vicky Pollard
Dynamics of Social Class Contempt in Contemporary British Television Comedy Sharon Lockyer School of Social Sciences Brunel University Uxbridge Middlesex UB8 3PH, UK Tel: +44(0)1895 267373 Email: [email protected] Dynamics of Social Class Contempt in Contemporary British Television Comedy Dynamics of Social Class Contempt in Contemporary British Television Comedy Abstract British television comedy has often ridiculed the complexities and characteristics of social class structures and identities. In recent years poor white socially marginalised groups, now popularly referred to as “chavs”, have become a prevalent comedy target. One of the most popular and controversial television “comedy chavs” is Little Britain’s fictional teenage single mother, Vicky Pollard. This paper examines the representation of Vicky Pollard in light of contemporary widespread abuse of the white working class. Highlighting the polysemic and ambivalent nature of Vicky Pollard’s representation, the paper argues that whilst Little Britain’s characterisation of Vicky Pollard largely contributes to contemporary widespread demonization of the working class, there are moments within Little Britain when a more sympathetic tone towards the poor working class may be read, and where chav identities are used to ridicule the pretensions, superficiality, and falsity of middle-class identities. The paper concludes that television comedy has been, and continues to be, a significant vehicle through which serious concerns, anxieties, and questions about social class and class identities are discursively constructed and contested. Keywords: chavs; social class; television comedy; Little Britain; Vicky Pollard; interpretive diversity; representation 2 Dynamics of Social Class Contempt in Contemporary British Television Comedy Introduction Sending up the dynamics and intricacies of the British class system has been a central ingredient of British television comedy since the 1950s.

The Ageing Woman in British Film Comedy of the Mid-Twentieth Century
Battleaxes, Spinsters and Chars: the Ageing Woman in British Film Comedy of the Mid-Twentieth Century Submitted by Claire Mortimer Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Art, Media and American Studies University of East Anglia February 2017 This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived there from must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. Word count: 94 090 i Abstract ‘Battleaxes, Spinsters and Chars: the Ageing Woman in British Film Comedy of the Mid- Twentieth Century’ explores the prominence of the mature woman in British film comedies of the mid-twentieth century, spanning the period from the Second War World to the mid- 1960s. This thesis is structured around case studies featuring a range of film comedies from across this era, selected for the performances of character actresses who were familiar faces to British cinema audiences. Organised chronologically, each chapter centres around films and actresses evoking specific typologies and themes relevant to female ageing: the ‘immobile’ woman in wartime, the spinster in the post-war era, retirement and old age in the 1950s, and the cockney matriarch in the early 1960s. The selection of case studies encompasses the overlooked and critically derided alongside the more celebrated and better known in order to represent the range of British film comedy of the time. The final chapter spans the time-frame of the whole thesis, exploring the later life stardom of Margaret Rutherford.

BBC Television Centre, London
10/25/2019 Television Centre, London - Wikipedia Coordinates: 51.5099°N 0.2263°W Television Centre, London Television Centre (TVC) is a building complex in White City, West London, that was the headquarters of BBC Television between Television Centre 1960 and 2013. The first BBC staff moved into the Scenery Block in 1953, and the centre was officially opened on 29 June 1960. It is one of the most readily recognisable facilities of its type, having appeared as the backdrop for many BBC programmes. Parts of the building are Grade II listed, including the central ring and Studio 1. Most of the BBC's national television and radio news output came from Television Centre, and in later years most recorded television was output from the nearby Broadcast Centre at 201 Wood Lane, care of Red Bee Media. Live television events from studios and routing of national and international sporting events took place within Television Centre before being passed to the Broadcast Centre for transmission. The building is 4 miles (6 kilometres) west of central London, in the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham. The nearest Underground stations are White City and Wood Lane. The BBC announced in 2010 that they would cease broadcasting from Television Centre in 2013. In July 2012 it was announced that the complex had been sold to property developers Stanhope plc, who said that the new Television Centre development would "pay homage to the original use of the building", and that the new Television Centre would be opened up to the public, offering entertainment and leisure facilities and approximately 1,000 new homes.
