The Narrative:

 Profiles
John Steed - Quite posh language, Can be seen as the hero and he flirts with Emma a lot.
He represents English males as he uses sophisticated language and dresses to fit the British male stereotypes. He represents the patriarchal society as he is very 'normal' and formal.

Emma Peel - Quite posh language, She is ovally sexualised in the series. She represents how women were seen as objects more than people which is underlined by the fact she was dressed in all black latex. She represents the changing attitudes to sexuality and women and art and music.
