A while later, Pip receives a visitor late at night, Abel Magwitch, the convict who he met all those years ago. After Magwitch got sent to Australia, (basically prison in Australia) he decided that he was to make a living and a fortune there through farming (we assume). Magwitch reveals that it was him infact, who had been the benefactor this whole time, and who had been supplying Pip with all this money (not Miss Havisham). Pip is extremely shocked. Magwitch asks Pip if he could live with him, and Pip decides to look after him. (Chapter 39)

One day, the man who smelt of soap in Miss Havishams home (Jaggers), arrives to tell Pip that an unknown benefactor, has funded a lot of money for Pip to become a “gentleman”. He says that Pip, has “great expectations”. Pip wrongly thinks that Miss Havisham is the benefactor (Chapter 18). He buys a new suit, and heads for London the next morning. (Chapter 19)

Another worker at Joe’s blacksmith den is Dolge Orlick. He is a terrifying man, who bullies Pip and scares Biddy by eyeing her constantly. One day, he gets into an argument with Mrs Joe, which ends in Joe punching Orlick. Later, Mrs Joe is found with her head bashed in from behind, by an anonymous attacker. They think it was Orlick, but they can’t be certain. Biddy comes to live at the house to look after Mrs Joe. (Chapters 15-17)

Pip becomes a regular visitor to Satis House, and meets Miss Havisham’s “friends” (who only want her for her money) and in one specific day, he meets a man who smells of soap. (Chapter 9)

Pip feels ashamed of his low class, but a nice girl called Biddy comforts Pip, but Pips mind doesn’t change. To make himself closer to Estella’s standard, he decides to go to school learn to read and write.(Chapter 10)

5 years later, Miss Havisham calls Joe to Satis House and gives him 25 gunieas (equal to £1.05), to fund for Pip to become his apprentice. Pip isn’t fond of this, as he doesn’t want to be seen working as a blacksmith by Estella, because he thinks that she then wouldn’t like him. (Chapters 11-14)

A few days later, Mr Pumblechook takes Pip to Satis House, which belonged to a wealthy lady called Miss Havisham, who wants to see children play. She has not left the house since her husband walked out on her, on her wedding day. She now stopped all the clocks in the house, still wears the same dress and still has the same food since that day. (Chapter 7/8)

When Pip arrives at Satis House, he is told to play cards with Miss Havisham’s beautiful adopted daughter, Estella. Pip falls in love with her straight away, but Miss Havisham raised Estella to seek revenge on men, since what her husband done to her on her wedding day. Estella constantly bullies Pip, he feels “common” or “ordinary”. (Chapter 8)

We learn that Pip is uneducated and can’t read or write. His family died when he was young, and has to live with his older sister, Mrs Joe Gargery and her husband Joe, who is a blacksmith. Pip loves Joe, but we find that Mrs Joe (Mrs Gargery) is always bullying them. Mr Pumblechook and his friend Mr Wopsle like to downgrade Pip. (Chapter 1)

One evening, Pip goes to visit his parents graves when he meets an escaped convict which persuades Pip, (by threatening him with a young man that he knows who will taunt Pip physically) to get him some food and a file. (Chapter 1)

Out of the frightening thought of the young man hurting Pip, he wakes up late at night and goes to meet the convict at the same place where they met. Pip gives the convict his food, and goes back home. (Chapter 2/3)

The next day, as Pip is having dinner with his family and friends, (Mr Wopsle, Mr Pumblechook etc) the soldiers find the escaped convict that Pip met. The convict does not sell out Pip, and decides to take the blame for stealing the file and food. (4-6)

From my perspective, the article is very persuasive as it uses facts to back up its points. This is demonstrated when it says that their food is “high in fat, sugar and salt, and low in fibre and vitamins” stating facts the readers can trust and believe in what your saying and may actually change their views.

McDonalds promote their food as being nutritious whereas in reality they are full of junk which contains high levels of oil, sugar and fat which could lead to long term and even fatal diseases such as heart disease, cancer, diabetes and other deadly diseases.

In chapter 26 Jaggers goes to dinner at his home alongside Pip and a few other students. The students then started to show off their muscles to show their power. Jaggers then called in his servant and told her to show the students her wrists which were slit. He was trying to impose to the students what real power was, which he possessed.

In the execution scene we created, we used semiotics to symbolise how King Lear felt when his daughters told him not to kill the “spy”, and that they were going to marry the Duke of the North and the Duke of Cornwall. We decided to repeat what the daughters were saying to King Lear in the script which was,  “I’m going to marry the Duke of the North” and “My father is ill”. This constant repetition of the words caused the King Lear to clench his hair in frustration which showed the audience how he felt in the scene. He got angry to the point, where we cover the “spy” with a black cloth away from the audience while repeating the words and the King killed the “spy” with his bare hands. The dead suspect falls and we cover him with the black cloth to symbolise death while our repeating words slowly faded away as he became satisfied that he was dead.
