      HOBSON'S CHOICE IN THIS PLAY I AM GOING TO CHHOSE EPISODES 2 AND EPISODE 11.IN EPISODE 2 IT IS SHOWING THAT HOBSON IS BEING OVER RULED.I WILL NOW EXPLAIN.

  Hobsons choice is set in the 18th century in the country side of   Lancashire.Hobson'schoice was written when Harold Brighouse was home from the "break out in World War one"

Harold brigouse was a member of the school of dramatists.

 The title means to have no choice at all. It came around by a man called Hobson.Brighouse got the flu so he changed the ending to the play and the time it was set from 1914 to 1880.The most important thing is the characters that are involved.it is a Lancashire comedy.Wrote in Lancashire dialect as well as Lancashire actcent.

Harold Brighouse was born on the 26th july 1882 in Eccles.His father was called John Brighouse.He decided to write te play in 1914.

Willie mossop is one of the chaacters in the play an is a real victorian Gentlemen.

 Hobson wants to go to the moonrakers to have an alcoholic beverage however his daughters Alice , Maggie and Vickey tell him to be home for 1 o'clock for his dinner.The quote used describing this is when Maggie says

Join now!

"dinners at one,remember"

Hobson replies by saying "dinner will be when i come in for it,im the master here" when Hobson leaves Maggie tells the girls

" make dinner for half past one we will give im half an hour "

Maggie is being strong and bossy to Hobson.she is ordering him to do as he is told.

  Hobson doesnt like the way the girls dress:he wants them to wear what he finds suitable.Vickey quotes

"Do you want us to dress as mill girls?"

 Hobson replies "no nor like French madams neither, it's un-English i say"
