The typical story line of Steve is that he uses people and cons them. Martin would appeal to women as; the soap portrays him as a sex symbol. I also think that he would be aimed at people that are interested in action and violence for example teenagers.
Tamsin Outhwait- Tamsin Outhwait is a strong female character and is probably going to take the place of Peggy Mitchell when she is gone. Tamsin has a different approach to women as all the other women on the square are housewives or are married and work. Tamsin appeals as an independent female who is always smartly dresses and not easily led. The typical story line of Melanie is that her husband is cheating on her and she forgives him. Tamsin would appeal to all age groups young women want to be her and men want her. She seems to appeal to the young and middle aged people.
Jessie Wallace- she is a flirt and has a bubbly personality. In recent episodes she has been very upset as her sister Zoe has just found at that kat is her mom. Her stereotypical features are that she is a flirt and she wants to be noticed. I don’t think that kat could relate to people in her storylines but she relates to them by dealing with the problems that she has.
The characters that I have chosen from Neighbours are Susan, Karl and Matt.
Karl
Head of the Kennedy family, Karl is well respected in Erinsborough as the local doctor. Married to Susan with three kids, Mal, Libby and Billy, family comes first. However, his concern for his loved ones often makes him look over protective and strict. Karl struggled with his life after Susan left to teach in the country and loneliness and confusion led him to his receptionist, Sarah. Almost from the time it began, Karl wanted to put his dalliance behind him and win back his wife. He is back in the house, but continues to face difficulties resurrecting his marriage. I think that Karl would appeal to an audience of people that are in there thirties. Karl’s storylines would appeal to married couples as him and Susan are very like a married couple. They have kids and are normal people.
Susan
Being a mother and wife are the most important things in Susan's life. She is very lonely and recently even tried to convince Karl to have another child. After gaining experience in a country school, Susan won the job of Erinsborough High's principal. Susan continues to struggle with putting her marriage back together after Karl's brief affair with Sarah. Susan would appeal to the working mothers and housewives. She is very much like the normal thirty five year old woman. She has a lot of responsibilities as well as problems of her own.
Matt
Matthew, 19, is the oldest boy in the Hancock family. He is older brother to Chris, Leo and Emily. He is an intelligent young man, though not without problems when it comes to applying himself to study. When he first arrived in Ramsay Street, he has been accepted into a university course - Arts - but has postponed for a year. His parents - Evan and Genevieve - despair about his future, but are also proud of his looks and wit. Girls like Matthew, although he lacks the maturity to keep up with most of them. He has a good relationship with Evan, a prickly one with Genevieve and regards his step-mum Maggie as a good mate. Matt would appeal to an audience of young girls they would be attracted to him. Also he may appeal to young guys as he pranks on people and has wit to him.
The storyline that I enjoyed most from Eastenders is when little Mo thinks that Trevor was walking around on the streets and tells Charlie. I find this storyline interesting as it is leading from the one were she killed him. It was eagerly anticipated for the return of Trevor and when they showed it was not him, you would still be in suspense.
The storyline that I enjoyed in neighbours was the problems in the high school. I enjoyed this as I could relate to it. There was bulling in the soap and there was also teachers trying to sort out the problems. This may appeal to children in secondary schools as this shows what happens in everyday schools.
