Can you catch the Harry Potter reference? Disney gave Russell Davies, the writer and show runner a note, that Ruby and the Doctor should meet before they meet. The note was embraced and created the ebullient scene which graced the Christmas trailers.

When Disney sought the rights to Harry Potter, they received a note from JK, "no". The man who never dies got into bed with Disney, the Boy Who Lived, well he was fine in the cupboard under the stairs.

I read today that Oxford's literary hub, the Lamb & Flag, has finally reopened. When I visited for a Philip Pullman 'His Dark Materials Tour' (cancelled on me - Grrr!), I found the Inkling's pub had been spun with Shelob's silk for years 🤯

Now Oxford trounces us, because all our famous Rowling cafes have shut. Edinburgh's fading.

I didn't take an Oxford Alumni tour, but they sent me a celebratory email...

I’m sure you’ve all heard of the Lamb and Flag – it is one of the most famous and oldest pubs in Oxford (it's 408 years old!!) and is frequently featured in Inspector Morse episodes!

The pub is located on St. Giles street, just next to St. John’s College,

Historically any profits from the pub were used to fund DPhil (PhD) scholarships for students! During the pandemic the pub was forced to close again…. But a few months ago it was re-opened by community group called the Inklings as a tribute to the author’s group that used to meet at the pub in the 1930’s/1940’s which included the likes of JRR Tolkien and CS Lewis!

The pub has now undergone a complete renovation and is definitely worth a visit – both for the history and the beer.
