Jeremy Kyle show, Teleshopping, Peppa Pig, Citizen Khan, Mrs Browns boys
4) 45 year old asian woman who is a doctor at the local hospital
Holby city, Casualty, Soviet Storm, Cake wars, Jamie's 15 min meals, Modern Family
Why I chose the shows for...
1) 21 year old uni students are usually quite intellectually gifted and so would probably watch quiz shows and slightly nerdy because he is doing maths so i thought he would watch star wars related shows. The cultural capital of this students family is likely high because university which is extremely expensive. The Psychographics of this man is likely a succeeder as he goes to university he is probably sure he will land a great job and has big goals.
2) The 16 year old black girl likely has a low cultural capital as she is bunking school with no GCSEs, so it is safe to assume her family isn't making sure she gets to school which is quite bad. I chose the shows for this girl as its what people watch to pass the time. Also the demographics of this girls family are probably level E as she is a student who isn't even employed and isn't going to school. The Psychographics of this young woman are likely a "struggler", she seeks escape because she probably understands that her situation is a little dire and would lie to succeed in life but doesn't know how so is struggling.
3) This 35 year old Muslim woman is likely quite comfortable as she's a stay at home mum her demographics are not obvious, but I think if she was able to stay at home to look after her child(dren) then she is likely doing okay and is able to afford food. I chose the shows because she would likely watch these sort of shows to pass the time, watch with her children and mums enjoy a bit of comedy with some shopping.
