The rape of a white woman as metaphor for colonialism in two miniseries by Hugo Blick","authors":"Eve Bennett","doi":"10.1177/17496020251372030","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1177/17496020251372030","url":null,"abstract":"This article focuses on two miniseries written, directed and produced by Hugo Blick, <jats:italic>The Honourable Woman</jats:italic> (2014) and <jats:italic>The English</jats:italic> (2022). Both series are partially set in colonised regions – present-day Palestine and the nineteenth-century United States, respectively – and have upper-class white heroines who are citizens of colonising countries: they are British-Israeli and British, respectively. In both cases, a key plot point is that the heroine has been raped and, as this article seeks to show, that rape is made to serve as a metaphor for colonialism. This manoeuvre, which can also be found in some colonial and postcolonial literature, represents a problematic displacement of the sexual violence often endured by colonised women at the hands of the colonisers. Although both series allude to this violence, neither addresses it directly, and colonised women play minor roles. Those that do appear are treacherous and/or sacrifice their lives saving the white heroines from danger, thereby paving the way for their children to be raised by white people. The focus of both programmes thus remains fixed on the white heroines and the trauma and other negative repercussions they have suffered as a result of their rapes. Consequently, neither series constitutes an effective critique of colonialism.","PeriodicalId":51917,"journal":{"name":"Critical Studies in Television","volume":"127 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144905773","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The series employs parody and satire to critique contemporary social movements, using mental health as a narrative tool. Nevertheless, it risks reinforcing stigma by linking mental disorders to violence through unrealistic and exclusionary representations, complicating its intended social commentary.","PeriodicalId":51917,"journal":{"name":"Critical Studies in Television","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144748175","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The research reveals a shift among younger viewers towards a re-asserted Anglo-American hegemony, driven by the accessibility of English-language content, declining interest in domestic content and growing English-language proficiency. This favours global streamers with English-language productions, primarily from the United States, even in Italy and Germany where dubbed shows have been the dominant viewing option.","PeriodicalId":51917,"journal":{"name":"Critical Studies in Television","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144611004","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The findings suggest that while teens appreciate local relevance, their sense of ‘home’ is multifaceted and extends beyond national borders, leading domestic media to focus on broad, popular formats and collaborations with content creators.","PeriodicalId":51917,"journal":{"name":"Critical Studies in Television","volume":"66 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144547077","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, I explore the definitional role of the programme in addressing environmental issues in the digital age and argue that this is a novel opportunity to examine the limits and possibilities of the genre to engage with anthropogenic crises. My analysis is informed by the perspectives of <jats:italic>EastEnders</jats:italic> scriptwriters/consultants and sustainability professionals who perceived prime time drama as providing a unique tool to engage distinctive diverse audiences who are marginalised by blue-chip nature series. For the first time, I address the context in which popular environmental storylines are produced in the UK and identify how storytelling is mediated by the contemporary hostile television environment with intense competition from streaming channels and social media platforms. I outline how the dynamics of environmental storytelling are shaped explicitly by external factors including organisational commitment to climate content and the perceived role of the BBC in catalysing a ‘national conversation’. Powerful tacit assumptions concerning ‘good stories’ being rooted in interpersonal friction potentially risk presenting a false equivalency – given that environmental scientists are reluctant to collaborate with this ‘low status’ media product. Continuing drama facilitates distinct opportunities to connect climate crisis to the lived experience through human-centred narratives but the contemporary television production context is in a state of flux and dated assumptions concerning its role in constructing public attitudes and beliefs need to be revisited.","PeriodicalId":51917,"journal":{"name":"Critical Studies in Television","volume":"25 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144153929","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In contrast with subscription video on demand (SVOD) services, FAST rely on library programming to draw in viewers. Functionally, this is an evolution of the linear television practice of syndication and remediates existing, successful television practices. Culturally, it serves to preserve several televisual heritages, including specific programs and ‘disposable’ genres like tabloid talk shows, game shows, and reality television. This article addresses how syndication functions in a streaming environment and what it tells us about which market segments and demographics media corporations are targeting in this emerging space.","PeriodicalId":51917,"journal":{"name":"Critical Studies in Television","volume":"47 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144133728","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
