To be fucking sick of working class people screaming

[browncordchic]

We get it, Coronation Street. Working class people show their midriffs and scream, but ars all right really FUCK OFF.

I never look down on people

And now I come back to apologise. I get so angry about how I am stereotyped it gets me so angry. I’m sorry this is my contrite face.

Depends on the shoes I suppose Ja 😂

Well, the character doesn't elephant

Because working class people are thick, shouty, and have no taste whatsoever.

Apparently.

S'alright ja, that was one lovely apology.

Just watch Made in Chelsea with the sound turned down instead.

Working class like me knock about in fake uggs darrling

browncordchic YANBU.

However, I hate to say it but I think your thread is over. My guess is that your attempt to discuss stereotyping in popular media - and possibly linking that to the lack of working class/minority writers given a mainstream presence - is going to be lost amongst outraged voices who haven't even read your opening post properly.

Ooooh have you trodden the backs down too? 😂😂😂

I feel horrible I never kick off. May I offer you a lovely bunch of just don’t ask where I got em

One has fucked up one's internet tonight.
I do not have a beret or an afghan.
I do have some terribly fetching wellies and a wolfhound (can't remember what an afghan is at the mo! )
Programme makers create programmes people will watch. Not me. Soaps hurt my head too. If people vote with their remotes then there would be less shit on TV.

You can’t tred down the backs on uggs that’s the joy of them!

Seriously, don't worry! That's a mild MN flaming More offended by Worra flashing her arse.

I can flash my arse too?

Lmao. Reminds me of an ex. I used to joke in his rare romantic moments he’d nicked the flowers from an RTA scene or the local cemetery ( yes I know, I’m awful)

He sent me a bouquet once with a sympathy card ‘I’m sorry for your loss’.

V glad he’s an ex but v funny all the same 😃

I don't think the thread is over, and I hope that MNers will look at more than just the title (or will that be another marker of how things have changed here?)

How television scriptwriter use stereotypes in the most-watched programmes is something, I think, that matters. And threads about it shouldn't be doomed because a couple of posters made a mistake (and have out their hands up for it and apologised).

I knew this was going to be about Corrie. YANBU.

I was wrong!

And I'm so happy to have been wrong.

I remember Coronation Street when it was Albert and Ena in the snug. Bet Lynch was my style role model.

And I beg to differ Ja

"One has fucked up one's internet tonight.
"I do not have a beret or an afghan."

Not seen in Tooting these days - it's gentrified

"I do have some terribly fetching wellies and a wolfhound grin"

Much more like it!

I watched the end of Coronation Street once shortly after moving to this country. I thought it was a parody of a soap opera. Had no idea it was this national institution.

I have no idea what you are saying?

Lol my moms ex was the same we lived right next door to a graveyard and he pissed her off a lot!

It just really pisses me off! The girl playing Gemma isn't brilliant, but the running around SHOUTING is just - well.

They keep trying to re create Becky and it doesn't work.

I like your ex Funko that made me laugh.
