    hiya Mr Salles i was slightly unsure with some of the previous years exam papers. When they state "Starting with this speech" in the 2017 aqa 2017 paper does that mean if I referenced to something prior would it be given any marks ?

      There is absolutely no need to start with the extract in any question ever.
