Our girl : stereotyping
Ethnicity
During the clip we viewed one of the extremists makes the remark '1000's of our women and children get killed and no one cares, but a white British woman is valuable', he also mentions that '1000 Muslim women and children are worth one British woman' this is stereotyping the fact that in the news there is a big fuss about a British, or any soldier in the war zone trying to sort the issue, but when we drop bombs on villages full of civilians no one bats an eyelid. -
Gender
The show has a mixture of presenting stereotypes and counter stereotypes. For example the 'squad' of soldiers is pretty much only men bar Michelle Keegan, also when the SAS team show up, its 4 males, this suggesting men are left to it when it comes down to the hard and crucial work.
Also in the Kenyan Terrorist group there is no sign of women except the prisoners, which is probably
true doing the oppression on Muslim women in some parts of Africa and Asia.
Adding to this the show counter stereo types the damsel in distress theme where the female needs saving by a big strong man, there is also a scene dedicated to Elvis's body trying to indicate how macho he is.

ReplyDelete- This series is clunky in many ways. It's true that sometimes it comes across like an army recruitment ad. Sometimes the script, acting and plot are too clichéd and the English countryside is an unconvincing stand-in for Afghanistan. But it's fantastic to see a drama revolving around a young cockney woman, Molly Dawes, who in London has a pretty bleak and insular life with few options in the future, and so tries a different tack and joins the army. The army opens up her life, and while she's not sophisticated at all, she does go on a journey that holds your interest. Lacey Turner is very convincing as the, at first, tough London teenager who becomes a scared, out of her depth, bullied, but brave and determined soldier. Too often, British dramas depict cockney girls as tarty losers always at the pub. This series was made with a good heart and I'm enjoying it.
