Grayson perry documentary

This documentary looked into the lives of two people within the realm of the public eye and two people that had made drastic changes to their lives. I felt the the subliminal messages made the documentary interesting ; it showed amongst our society their is a dominant ideology as the mp went to prison and after six months of being out of prison he has a managerial role at a big oil company and a column in a popular newspaper whereas normal convicts who aren't white middle class men struggle to find any employment.
Another message portrayed by the documentary was that people become famous for nothing ; this message was construed through the observation of Ryland who has obtained wealth and fame for no reason at all.
Grayson Perry also followed the lives of two people who had made remarkable changes to their lives ; first a mother of three who was previously an alcoholic but converted to Islam and gave up the drink to become a better person and secondly a women who had a sex change to become a man and now gives lectures to teenagers about his transformation
