Representation of young people in the Inbetweeners

Fiske Idea 1- 
The representation within television drama is different to film and news due to 'formal conventions'.
During a series a representation lives beyond the end of the episode unlike a film which has an overall 'finale'.
The camera tends to focus on individuals and the performance of the actors which contributes to the plot development.
The Inbetweeners relation 'The Gig and the Girlfriend'- within this episode they attend a gig in which all of them decide to take drugs, this is originally so simon can impress a girl. However when it comes to the actual drug taking they all become very nervous and unsure defeating the stereotype, the episode finishes with Will being taken to hospital and jay running off leaving room for 'what will happen next'? This then allows the characters to live beyond that episode and allowing a emotional connection with the viewer.
Fiske Idea 2-
The relationship with characters is unique compared to other media forms.
Constant repetition of the character means they live in a similar time scale to us (they have a past,present and future). We develop different relationships with that characters from a series then those within a film.
The Inbetweeners relation-Within this episode we learn that Will cried on a ghost train when he was 5, along with 'shitting' himself during an exam. Again this reflects Fiskes idea of presenting the characters with a 'past'.
Fiske Idea 3- 
constructed representations by the writers and producers. The representations are portrayed through appearance, interests, characteristics. Within this episode and throughout the series Will is portrayed as being the responsible one of the group, through the use of his formal clothing (correct uniform)  and standard English. His actions and body language and also quite adult.
Fiske Idea 4-Polysemic reading 
TV drama can be interpreted in many different ways. How us the audience would behave if we were in their shoes. The viewer is less of a subject of dominant ideology and more in control of the process of identification through his/her meanings. Audience judge characters on how they appear.
