"We hear a sharp ring of a front door bell. Birling stops to listen." - authority established before he enters. Dramatic, dangerous. Presence is felt.
Man of "massiveness, solidity and purposefulness" - The Inspector is an imposing figure; dominates the atmosphere. Solid; he is firm in his purpose, An opaque character.
"One person and one line of enquiry at a time. Otherwise there's a muddle" - Controlling, totally sure of his authority. "One" establishes that he works alone; he does not need anyone to tell him what to do. Omniscient.
"Burnt her insides out" - emotionally unattached, unfeeling. Professional, blunt and factual.
"Do you remember her, Mr Birling?" - omniscience. He knows the story; isn't looking for answers, but acceptance. He is accusatory; highlighting unjust, morally wrong actions.
"And why did you do that?" - simple, one syllable words make it seem blatant that the family is to blame. Makes it clear; unravelling secrets until everyone is bare.
The Final Speech from Inspector is very important as it provides Priestley's message clearly to the audience:
"One Eva Smith has gone - but there are millions and millions and millions of Eva Smiths and John Smiths still left with us"
"their hopes and fears, their suffering and chance of happiness," "the time will soon come when, if men will not learn that lesson, then they will be taught in fire and blood and anguish.”
