Intellectual Fireworks
A professor at a prestigious writing retreat? Is Ed's good fortune too good to be true? Stars Christopher Douglas. From December 2013.
Ed appears to have stepped on the gravy train at last as he takes up a professorship at Much Wenlock Court 鈥� a prestigious writing retreat.
He hopes this will lead him at the very least, to a contentious Saturday Essay on Radio 4' s Today Programme.
But, alas, this retreat has been set up by one Jaz Milvain so could Ed's change in fortune be too good to be true..?
The comical world of an author, pipe smoker, consummate fare-dodger and master of the abusive e-mail.
