The role of TV documentaries like The Family, and reality shows such as Airport and Big Brother, in eroding the distinction between celebrities and ordinary people. The programme considers whether this is a welcome democratisation of fame or just provides opportunities for irritating self-obsessed amateurs to flood the small screen.

There's a warm sense of superiority watching this archive show, as we gaze back on the hopelessly patronising image of women projected by postwar television, with wives as homemakers judged (in plummy male voiceovers) on how tasty their pies looked or how clean their whites were. Ah, how we chuckle at the follies of the past. But the feeling doesn't last long, because the images from recent TV of women being kneaded and bullied in shows like What Not to Wear and Ten Years Younger don't reflect too well on us, either. It's not hard to imagine a clip show of the future getting hold of Anthea Turner: Perfect Housewife and wondering what on earth we noughties viewers were thinking. The programme enjoyably charts the progression of women on TV via a series of heroines, including Elsie Tanner, the Liver Birds, Angela Rippon and Prime Suspect's Jane Tennison (Helen Mirren). It grossly maligns The Sweeney and skips over the 1980s altogether, but it's well worth it for the cracking clips.

TV and teenagers have grown up together. This film examines TV's attempts to represent teenage reality, and also its willingness to engage with teenage life when others were running scared. Programmes such as Grange Hill and The Word in the early days, and more recently Skins, have consistently created a space for teenagers in the mainstream TV medium.
