  3. +London Para She starts to speak London slang in a Shakespearian way - so when he threatens to fail her she starts saying "Am'st I bothered (pronouncing all the syllables in bothered -meaning Am I bothered?) In other words she is not worried by his threat. Is this the bothered face thou sees before thee? Looketh at my face" etc etc

  8. She says in a Scottish accent "you take the high road and I'll take the low road". It's a line from a traditional Scottish song ( "The Banks of Loch Lomond") which continues "and I'll be in Scotland afore ye" (before you).

  9. As it's an english lesson, may I point out that it's 'through it all' not 'threw it all'. 'Threw' is about throwing things. It's the past participle of 'to throw'.  You may not be bothered though.
