EXERCISE 1

"In my opinion, John Young was guilty of no breach of duty to the appellant, and was not in law responsible for the hurt she sustained. I may add that the issue of duty or no duty is, indeed, a question for the court, but it depends on the view taken of the facts." Bourhill v Young [1943] AC 92 at 111 per Lord Wright

Required

Explain how the decision in Bourhill v Young can be analysed or rationalised under Lord Wilberforce's two-stage approach from Anns v London Borough of Merton.
