Prof. Patricia Pulham

Very sad to hear about the death of Prof. Simon James - an excellent scholar and a kind human being. My thoughts are with his family, friends and colleagues.

Editorial: ‘The government should not stand aloof as a crisis unfolds in our universities. A new settlement is needed’. Good to see a measured, informed, and supportive media response to the crisis in HE.

Having now seen #Nosferatu, I’m sorry to say that I was disappointed. I’ve loved Eggers’ work to date, and the cinematography here was equally impressive, but it’s a one-note movie - everything is overwrought, including Orlok’s distracting accent!
