both are stock actors the

casting director knows

they work well together and

has used them before.

Location; The opening is located in London

this is shown by the iconic images i.e Big Ben,

Metropolitan police station and the underground

are all shown. The location then moves to

Sanford, Gloustershire, this is a big contrast to

London as it has fields, famers, churches and

everybody knows everybody.

Stereotypes; In London it shows the

stereotypical City scenes of red buses,

Big Ben and the smart Police officers

investgating crime scenes.When the film

location changes to Sanford the stereotype

changes also, to the old fashioned pubs

and villagers who dress like farmers

and knoweverybodies business.

Humor; The style of humor in this film is

derived from the existing perceptions of the

police. The contrast in the stereotypes of

Police officers from different areas adds

humor. There are also elements of slapstick

in this film too.

Camerawork & Editing; There are lots of extreme close ups to catch facial expressions wich adds to the comedy. It uses fast pased editing to make mundain tasks seem exciting imitating the action genre also adding to the humor of the film. The pace then slows right down when the location changesto country side, showing the characters boredom and contrasting to the past paced City.
