Booked for a screening of The Lodger introduced by Michael Williams at Turner Sims during Southampton FilmWeek 🌟 The screening will feature live musical accompaniment from @YorkshireSilent musicians. Book here: turnersims.co.uk/events/hitchco…

Really enjoyed introducing ‘The Lodger’ at Turner Sims last night for Southampton FilmWeek. Great to see a large audience enjoying silent film brought to life by brilliant live music. (And any excuse to see Ivor Novello on the big screen..)

Last rally to say we have HAD ENOUGH ✊🪧 #ucustrike #ucuRISING

I’m sad not to be able to be at the ‘Noël Coward: Past, Present and Future’ conference in person to give my paper on Coward and Ivor Novello and hear all the other fascinating papers. Hope everyone enjoys what looks set to be a wonderful event! birmingham.ac.uk/schools/edacs/…
