In this scene where Sam and Bianca are arguing and fighting it shows Londoners in a bad light as their are always arguments and fights going on in the square. So people that live further away from London might think that this is generally why happens everywhere in London. This is both stereotypical and non stereotypical because it is usually males who have fights because women are stereotyped as more calm, maternal, sophisticated so they wouldn't fight as it it shown as more f ma male thing. Phil, a big strong man, splits them up which is stereotypical of what would usually happen. Bianca and Sam are also middle aged which is not stereotypical of the age that people would usually fight as because they should of grown up and be able to hold their anger back by now, so this is going against the normal stereotypes.

In this TV programme, The Big Bang Theory, Raj is seen as the token asian so that it isn't just an all white cast. He creates humour in this programme by using off colour humour to make fun of his accent and way of life. He is not a stereotypical asian as he does not keep to his religion and culture as he drinks a lot of alcohol and tries to seduce women he also eats all types of meats whenever he wants. He contrasts well with the other characters because if he wasn't there they would all be similar and there wouldn't be as many jokes made.
