OMG, I just found this video half an hour into my mock. This is actually a cool video to memorize Sybil Birling's quotations and key moments within it. Thank You so much Mr. Watson for making these amazing videos. I'll definitely check your other videos on An Inspector Calls today!

A good one is "No- Eric please- I didn't understand-"
You can use this qoute to argue about Mrs Birling and how she doesn't care about anything but her social status.
This explains how this supposed "Guilt" vanished as soon as she realised the Inspector was a "joke". She never cared about Eric, Eva or her grandchild. She only cares about her position.
Context:
1. Priestly wanted to emulate how horrible the upper class was especially people who were born into "Social [Superiority]" (She's her husbands social superior)
2. The reason her status and influence may be important to Mrs Burling may be due to the fact she's a women in a patriarchal society. (Use her hypocrisy and how she tells Sheila to confine to gender roles despite not confining to them herself)

[@robynthompson6580]

Hi mr watson this video was sort of useful sort of not quotes I would encourage people to use “sharply,Sheila don’t talk nonsense””a rather cold woman and her husband’s social superior””I did my duty” and finally “if the girls death is due to anybody it’s due to him” thank you

[@rowanhyde5705]

What are the themes of the first quote

[@EnglishWithWatson]

It highlights themes of social class, gender stereotypes, and the power dynamics of wealth.
