- Inspector Goole
- The Inspector takes complete charge
- The Inspector is an outsider and has nothing in common with the Birlings
- He's described as authoritative and imposing. He's not a big man - but his presence fills the room
- Inspector Goole is moral "We don't live alone. We are members of one body"
- Inspector Goole is authoritative "All in good time"
- Inspector Goole is mysterious "Was it a hoax?"
- Inspector Goole is an outsider "The rude way he spoke to Mr Birling and me - it was quite extraordinary!"
- The Inspector is the driving force of the play
- "Calls" is a deceptive word to describe the Inspector. he may appear casual but he's actually single minded and calculating. He 'calls' the shots
- The Inspectors language is motive and personl
- He describes Eva as "pretty" and "lively". These attractive words create sympathy for her
- The sympathy is strengthened by the harsh tone he uses to describe her death
- He says that she is now lying "with a burnt-out inside on a slab"
- The Inspector uses shock tactics
- He answers his own questions if he's not happy with the answer
- He rings the doorbell as Arthur says "a man has to mind his own business" as if to prove the opposite
