Our 1st social group is represented through a middle class man in his 40’s. He is represented as an average man who is just minding his own business and getting on with his life. He is made to be the sort of guy you wouldn’t expect to just go out and cause trouble and making a nuisance of himself.
The 2nd social group is represented through a group of youths (chavs). They are dressed in the stereotypical tracksuit and hoodie with trainers. They are in the typical stance you would expect (hunched over with facer hidden by their hood).
These are played on with the typical stereotype that most people assume, the troublesome youths who are just out to cause trouble, picking on the innocent for no apparent reason (in this case a middle class man on his way home from the shop) the general tone the first half of the opening scene is meant to suggest that something is going to happen, but until you see the group of youths it becomes apparent that whatever is going to happen isn’t going to be good.
