My final year dissertation, the culmination of my journey through university. The idea to discuss class arose in year 2 whilst writing about how social class was depicted in Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz, and during a pizza evening with a couple of friends we discussed how it could be applied to Blackadder. Over the summer (between Year 2 and 3) it was always near the front of my mind and after discussing it with Dr Emma Austin and Dr Van Norris, I formed an initial angle of attack and went for it. Dr Austin was my dissertation supervisor and enabled me to build my academic skills in a way I hadn’t previously. I’m thrilled with the outcome and may return to it at some point to break free of the word limit, which I was bouncing off for some time.
