Shameless is such a bad representation of Manchester and the people who live there. If we enter the city centre of Manchester the architectural is amazing, however yes the suburbs are grotty however Shameless seem to wants to show Manchester in this negative view which effects the people who live in Manchester as the moment you ask have you been there people will say 'Er no have you seen it' just on watching Shameless. The way in which Shameless is directed give the area a negative representative of being working class and having a handicap of either an alcoholic , whore or gang member. Although this program was awarded with best drama series at the BAFTA awards and was then sold onto America for them to make a laughing stock out of an area which has enough bad media evolving them without having a program broadcasted showing how bad the area is or isn't. I think the fact of opening a series with an alcoholic shouting at the viewer instantly gives the region a bad name.
