3) Write a list of any narrative theories that you DIDN'T use for your answer to question 1.2. How could you have used these in the Doctor Who clip in the exam?
one of the narrative theories would be binary opposition of the old vs young between the doctor who is an elderly person and the teachers being younger and trying to get past the doctor this is Levi Strouss's thoery
4) Write three ways in which a modern audience might respond differently to Doctor Who: An Unearthly Child compared to an audience at the time.
One way would be that they might not be able to respond to somethings that the old doctor who was made, another reason would be the editing of the video and how modern audiences are used to fast paced editing techniques, the third reason would be the different things that are said like things that wasn't considered too much of being racist compared to today, and how modern audiences can learn what the 1960's were like at the making of the show, it shows how TV has evolved throughout the years
