As I discovered only yesterday, Colonel Mustard was originally called Colonel Yellow. They decided to change the name before the first edition of Cluedo was released. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HibeeJibee Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 Wrexham University professor dropped over road sign post - BBC News Wrexham University professor dropped over bilingual road sign post A professor has lost a university role after he described the use of the Welsh language on road signs as "potentially dangerous". Nigel Hunt, a visiting psychology professor at Wrexham University posted the comments on social media. He said he got a letter from the university's vice chancellor, dismissing him from the honorary position. The university confirmed Prof Hunt no longer worked there. Prof Hunt, who lives in Derbyshire, said he was "disappointed" by the college's "knee-jerk" reaction, branding it a "free speech issue". He was 13 months into a three-year role as a visiting professor. "They were saying they were going to do an internal inquiry into it, which seems to be on all the media around, and there doesn't seem to have been an internal inquiry," he said. "I was driving back from Wales when this all blew up and the following morning I received the letter saying my contract was terminated." Prof Hunt said his view that road signs should only be in English was based on science, not any feelings against the Welsh language. Prof Hunt, who is undergoing treatment for cancer and is based at Nottingham University, said it had been some time since he had taught at Wrexham because of his condition. Wrexham University said: "We have ended our visiting arrangements with Prof Hunt, and he no longer has a relationship with the university." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carpetmonster Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 If she's been saving for 20 years, she might well have gotten the idea from a Chris Morris sketch that aired in 2000. Could've been worse; hopefully she doesn't get a plumber round to fix a baby. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
