REPRESENTATIONS
OF AGE
STEREOTYPES
Young People
• Anti-Social
• Sexually Active
• Alcohol/Drug use
• Lazy
• Criminal
These stereotypes
are backed up by
such media
influences as ‘Skins’,
with the character
Chris for example.
STEREOTYPES
Old People
• Grumpy
• Frail
• Poor Health/Senses
• Boring
• Narrow-Minded
• Racist/Homophobic
• Rude
An example of old
people being
represented in the
media is characters
such as ‘Victor
Meldrew’ who plays a
grumpy old man, in
One Foot in The
Grave.
CATHERINE TATE: NAN
The ‘Nan’ character in the Catherine
Tate show represents the
stereotypical old person – but an
extreme example. She is loud, rude
and generally quite insensitive. This
is a contrast to the grumpy,
withdrawn and quiet ‘old person’
stereotype.
CATHERINE TATE SHOW
This clip shows stereotypes such as ill health, rudeness and
narrow-mindedness.
