The Characters

 The main bully within the film is Jay Brown. He is a stereotypical lower class teen. He was raised with a lower class family and has a different perspective of life. Jay is fairly racist as his dad doesn't agree with Immigrants. When Peter joins the school he automatically doesn't like him due to his culture. He has many ASBO's and enjoys breaking the rules of the school by disrespecting everyone. Within Angus Thongs Perfect Snogging there are two school bullies. We based him on the two bullies as they are from a lower class and are stereotypical 'chavs'. They wear side ponytails and have big hooped earrings, all of which is associated with lower class people.

 The next character is Peter Davis. We originally planned for him to be an American exchange student, but we then decided to make him a Polish exchange student, this is because racial issues against the Polish is a back problem in Britain, therefore we felt this would give the story a more ethical view on cultural diversity. When Peter lived in Poland, he was a fun and lively character, however, he becomes antisocial when he moves to England since he finds it difficult settling into his new school, especially as he has Jay on his back. We decided to link Peter to Zac Efron in 17Again. This is because he is new to the school aswell and he doesn't fit in straight away. He gets bullied by a group of 'football jocks'. This group is the school bullies. We chose to go along the lines of them, however in our we changed Jays group life styles.

The third main character is Sarah Levine. Along with Peter, she is also new to the school and is struggling to make friends as she is shy and unsociable. As her and Peter are both new they slowly begin to develop a strong friendship.
