Narrative- The Short Clip from Waterloo introduces several narrative strands. The main narrative for that certain episode is shown to be the arrival of a new student which is clearly hinted earlier on when two teachers are heard disccusing about a new enrollment on the register. Also, in the beginning the lines 'the smoke cleared up' connotes how the school had been evacuted due to a fire drill/alarm. Romantic relations are shown too which the new student is seen kissing another male which in turns causes another girl to react.
Character- The characters are typical of TV Drama around school life. In the first shot two teachers were seen alongside mass groups of students/teenagers and the arrival of a new character who may trigger a certain event.
Iconography- The costumes shown are school uniforms for the teenager but some wear various other clothing too which shows the lack of order in the school. A Mercedes car is also used for a student which allows some insight on their status or wealth.
Setting- The clip was all set Infront of a school hence the buildings which allows the sub genre to be easily shown
