An Inspector Calls - best revision book

[LakeFlyPie]

An Inspector Calls is one of DS's GCSE texts. He's got the CGP text guide from school but it's not great. There seem to be lots of other revision guide options. Any particular recommendations would be gratefully received

There's a good BBC sounds GCSE revision podcast on it. I didn't know the book and listened to the podcast on a long car trip with DS last week. Kicking myself for not seeing the play first now. Didn't realise how good it is.

DS also has the CGP flashcards, I ask and he answers.

Oh man, are they still doing An Inspector calls?!

I did it for GCSE in 1996, ds did it in 2018.

I absolutely detested it and he did too despite me biting my tongue and saying only positive things!

To answer your question, I preferred the Collins ones with ds.

York Notes or Phillip Alan guides are normally pretty good (the former will definitely have one and you can preview bits on their website).

Is another one.

And Mr Bruff is a good video based tool free on YouTube.

Any of them are what I normally recommend my students for any of our GCSE texts and the Oxford study versions for Shakespeare plays.

Ha ha you beat me to it! I remember it being on the syllabus in the 90s! I didn't do it but my older sibling did.

Time for a syllabus update surely?

To answer your question OP find a millennial who remembers it and get them to do a pop quiz

Thanks for all the replies. I wasn't familiar with this play and am actually enjoying it (more than DS I think!)
Have ordered the revision cards and have also come across @nellynutmeg's post re Flipsco cards and have ordered those for all of the GCSE texts - DS will be delighted 😁
