Breaking Bad- Elliot and Gretchen are a multi millionaire couple that play the role of being Walters friends, however seem to be constantly looking down on Walter as they are much wealthier. They meet the stereotype of judgemental, well educated upper class people. They also offer Walter money for his cancer treatment which is a countertype as wealthy people are usually reluctant to give away money but these aren't.
Downton Abbey- The Crawley family are portrayed as a well educated, wealthy and influential people. This is also shown by their number of servants. They meet the stereotype of upper class people being well spoken as they enunciate their words clearly and use a wide range of vocabulary.
Middle Class:
Breaking Bad- The White family are a working class family who meet the stereotype of lower class people being hard working towards making money and this shows as the parents work very hard to make their money.
Waterloo Road- They're clearly middle class as they work hard for their money and are well committed to their job.
Lower Class:
Misfits- As the TV drama is about young offenders, and it is aimed at teenagers, it will interest this age group as they can relate to the use of language and behaviour.
