Casualty - Series 25 Episode 1

This is the first episode of the 25 series long tv hospital drama 'Casualty' this episode is entitled 'No Place Like Home'. in this episode i could see allot of Vladimir Propps' theory of their being many different types of people in the programme and these can be seen in nearly all programmes/films, these include people like the hero, anti-hero and villain. All the way up to 32 different ones.


In Casualty i see more than one hero, i see all the doctures, nurses ect to be the heros on the surface but as you look deeper you see that they do have different characteristics.

Here is 'Nick Jordan' played by Michael French, it seems that he is the hero in it because he's the one in the suit and acts like he knows what he is doing whilst still keeping calm. but i feel he is more of an Anti-Hero because in previous episodes he has seen to be doing thing this is very un-hero like such as drugs.

Suzanne Packer who plays 'Tess Bateman' i feel is the donor of the show, not only has she been in the show since 2003 to the present day, she doesn't have a high position and her position is to help the doctors which helps us to form my conclusion. this is emphasised by the fact that she is compelled to help people that she doesn't have to.

Lucy Gaskell is playing 'Kirsty Clements' in the show seems to me to be the princess in this episode, the story of the episode is based highly around her and what happened between her and 'Adam Truman' and how he cant have her, which is what Propp describes as the princess.
