Mr Birling - Start
Titanic… Unsinkable, unsinkable - (dramatic irony)
Mr Birling - Start/Middle
Well, we’re several hundred young women there, y’know and they keep changing
Mr Birling - End/Middle
Look inspector, l’d give thousands, yes thousands (but can’t give Eva extra few shillings)
Mr Birling - End
(Feels no guilt) - There’ll be a public scandal
Mrs Birling - start
Now Arthur, I don’t think you ought to talk business on an occasion like this
Mrs Birling - Middle
I don’t suppose for a moment that we can understand why the girl committed suicide. Girl of that class
Mrs Birling - End
I felt it all the time, he never talking like one. He never even looked like one
Sheila Birling - Start
Oh… It’s wonderful! Look mummy- isn’t it a beauty- oh darling (kiss Gerald)
Sheila Birling - Middle
I know I’m to blame and I’m desperately sorry (First to accept responsibility)
Sheila Birling - End/Middle
No because I remember what he said, how he looked and what he made me feel. Fire and blood and anguish. And its frightens me the way you talk
Sheila Birling - End
(Affected by Inspector’s message)’I tell you – whoever that Inspector was, it was anything but a joke.’
