Mr Birling:
S.D - “heavy-looking, rather portentous man in his middle fifties with fairly easy
manners but rather provincial in his speech”
“Giving us the port, Edna?”
In speech about engagement: “happiest nights of my life” “me” “I”
“Hard-headed practical man of business”
“Unsinkable, absolutely unsinkable” + “silly little war scares”
“Community and all that nonsense”
“The famous younger generation who know it all”
public scandal

Mrs Birling:
S.D - “rather cold woman and her husband’s social superior”
“Girls of that class”
“I accept no blame for it at all”
“I did nothing i am ashamed of or that wont bear investigation”
“As if a girl of that sort would ever refuse money!”
“Go and look for the father of the child. Its his responsibility”
The stage descriptions of her actions change as the pretence is
revealed e.g. ‘grandly’ / ‘haughtily’/ ‘triumphantly’ become
‘rather cowed’/ ‘distressed’ ‘staggered’ / ‘alarmed’.
