Wow... I was just lay there in bed and then it hit me. Prepare for this.

Edna has the letter 'd' in it, social 'c'lasses is a main theme in then play. D comes after C, the c is part of the main theme and hence makes the play what it is. D comes after, therefore Edna time travelled from the future in order to become a maid of the Birling household.

A quote that directly links to this is when Edna says: "famalams I'm off to da future fk dis social classes." I'm sure we can all remember that key quote.

Poor grammar bro. I expected better from someone who displays such perceptive analysis.

This is why the TSR community should listen to our expertise.
Obviously, Edna can be turned into Eva by removing the 'd', flipping the n upside down and squeezing it a little at the bottom. This is how we KNEW for a 100% FACT that the exam was going to be about Eva Smith. :smile:

ok first Eric is the alcoholic and second, the fact that cleAring has an A in it just like evA Smith has no link what so ever IT IS MORONIC TO SUGGEST THAT. I'm 15, I've only just finished the book, I haven't studied it that closely and I know that is a serious misconception

But, is it Edna's fault? She's the underclass too and is only doing what she's been told to do by her boss (Mr Birling)!

Edna secretly listened to all the events in the play. She heard all about eva smith's suicide and was so disgusted at the Birling family that she comitted suicide exactly the same way! That's what the end of the play was about, they'd found her dead body.

Edna spelled backwards is Ande.. Quite similar to "and"... Which may imply that there is more to her than we first think.
Her name also has origins linking to fire which links o the quote about Eva burning her insides. Meaning. They're the
same person. BOOM
