London Olympic 2012

In the opening sequence of the London Olympic, in the music ceremony they have used all raced characters. They have got people from all race and ethnicity performing in the music ceremony. This shows that they wanted to celebrate the opening ceremony with all races in it. This gives a very positive representation to the London as it has people from all different backgrounds, but people have a very open mind, they don't mind living with each other. This is what this opening ceremony is celebrating. One example where the show the multi-ethnic people was when the girl has the house party, in the house they have everyone in the house, they have people from all backgrounds. This gives a very positive representation to Britain on a whole as they communicate with people from different backgrounds everyday.

I think that the Alvarado's Humorous theory is used, as they have made the whole concept very funny and they have showed the happiness of people from all backgrounds.  The whole concept shows the being happy and enjoying themselves, which is done through some humour.  This means they have used Alvarado's theory to represent all of the backgrounds in the opening ceremony. this then gives Britain a very good representation that they are very caring and loving. That everyone cares for each other in Britain and how they don't think a difference in people from all backgrounds.

Then we saw the NHS celebrating the opening ceremony of the Olympics. The reason the NHS were there to celebrate the opening ceremony was because the NHS is a very big part of UK and how every year they help millions if people stay aware from illness. From my prospective i think that the Daily Mails article for the NHs was very wrong. They are just hating on people who save millions of peoples lives every year. The NHS is unique for UK, as no one in any other country saves peoples lives for free. Where ever you go in the world you will have to pay for your treatment. The Daily Mail have a very wrong sense of the NHS, they cannot just discriminate the NHS, The NHS is such a powerful aspect of Britain, which makes Britain very unique.
