A talk given this morning to a group of boys working on an essay about the ‘fiend like queen’. We were preparing Macbeth for IGCSE Literature (Edexcel), though the ideas can apply to examinations quite easily.

Sadly I forgot that the microphone was in my lap top and kept going walk about which makes this a tricky one to use in a classroom environment, but it works perfectly well through headphones.
The talk is here in sound file:
