Sheila Birling in TEN Quotations - 'An Inspector Calls' GCSE English Literature Revision

This is the fourth video in my '"An Inspector Calls" GCSE English Literature Revision' series!
In this video, I focus on the character of Sheila Birling, and discuss the ten quotations that I best feel sum her up, and are most useful to analyse in relation to her character. I complete A LOT of verbal analysis in this video, so much sure that you're listening and that you have a pen and paper to hand!
I also discuss what J. B. Priestley's possible intentions may have been when he was writing this character - why did he make Sheila the way she is?

I can't believe that you put this much effort into your videos but still only get less than 10k views. These videos should be shown throughout the whole of the Uk and other countries that also teach this play. Thankyou.

[@jacobharris5088]

i could not agree more with you

[@hraz7]

Could you argue that Priestley puts these little mistakes in Sheila's actions, such as not taking full responsibility at one point and flaring up at another, to show her humanity, rather than showing socialism to be something perfect that only some can truly use as their ideology.

[@DystopiaJunkie]

That's an awesome idea! I can definitely see how that could fit into a really really strong argument! 😊

[@alicjabednarczuk9577]

You're more helpful than my current English teacher lol

[@DystopiaJunkie]

😂 Thank you! Your poor teacher though - they've had to work so hard in such a difficult year, whereas I've got the luxury of time and can just mess around and make videos as a side project!

[@oliviallanes-fairest4026]

Honestly, I get so stuck with English. It's my weakest subject but, when I watch your videos, it really helps me to understand and I can't believe you're not famous yet! You deserve so much more recognition with the amount of helpful advice + information you give us. Thank you!

[@DystopiaJunkie]

Ah bless you, this is such a lovely comment to read!! I'm happy to help out the people I can, whether that's 100 people or 100,000 people - knowing I'm able to support learners with their studies and help them to feel a bit more confident is the most important thing for me 😊

[@yagmuragus8894]

i learnt more from this in half an hour than what i do 2 hours in class

[@DystopiaJunkie]

Glad it was helpful! 😊

[@kay-mu4ci]

GCSEs coming up next month, definitely one of the most helpful on KZbin. This is coming from someone who didn’t start revising until the exams are right around the corner😂

Could you maybe do some stuff on Macbeth or poetry or even English language as your videos help me a lot with my exam practice work in quarantine :)

[@DystopiaJunkie]

I'll be working on Macbeth at some point, but probably not until after Christmas (a long way off, I know, but hopefully still in time for you to use them to help with your revision).

[@lilyelle584]

DystopiaJunkie that would be great and would be really helpful 🤗

[@Bigsyboo]

Hello. Would you say this is top grade (grade 7,8,9) material? Thanks

[@DystopiaJunkie]

I would, yes - students have said over the last few years that my content has helped them to achieve the top, top grades!

[@Mindsetexpress]

what happened at 2:51

[@DystopiaJunkie]

Just explained on another comment - it just happens sometimes (brain moves faster than my mouth sometimes I guess). I usually edit out the occasional stutter, but I must have missed this one - my bad 🙃

[@nufc6511]

Long video mate are mock exams that important?

[@DystopiaJunkie]

😂 I'd say so! Especially if the pandemic messes things up and your grades are based on CAGs and TAGs again!

[@agamingchicken9331]

why did you stutter 2:50

[@DystopiaJunkie]

It just happens sometimes (it's why I speak slower than I normally do in videos - to try to avoid it)! I usually edit them out, but must have missed this one as I was editing - good spot! 🙃

[@RealRad10]

Why does it even matter it’s just a stutter
