Collective Identity

Similarities in British Values:
Both contemporary and past texts are constructed in the way they take into account relevant issues at the different time periods. They are comparable in the way they establish British society through their way of life.

Differences in British Values: 
The obvious differences between the two media texts include the different occupations. In Corrie for example job occupations include Bartenders, policeman etc as apposed to the drug dealers and prostitution we are exposed to in London to Brighton. Also the characters from both texts express different attitudes to life and have different priorities. 


How Ideas and values connect with debates and struggles over meanings in UK society at time period:
During the time period that the Corrie episode was produced (1970's), women in the UK were fighting for more rights and freedom. Their progress represented by the number of different jobs that the females are occupied in for this time period. Instead of staying at home and carrying out domestic chores, the women in this episode are breaking through the traditional stereotypes.
