@ltg1810@66Steph82@ifellonithonest@Scott_Wortley I think the woman bottom left was in Gavin and Stacey and yes to the dog bloke. That's it for me. Which is why I haven't watched it for several years.
The Carter Ruck letter to @timeshighered has now been published.
An interesting footnote - the letter states that Arday was supervising 15 PhD students and had acted as external examiner for 35.
15 would be a huge number of PhD students even in the case of a brilliant and energetic supervisor. I would expect a well-run department to discourage this kind of excessive supervisory load because it is very difficult to provide adequate supervision to this many PhD students. If Arday really had 15 PhD students, I wonder what experience these 15 students received and how they are being supported now.
Acting as external examiner for 'over 35' students would be extraordinary given that Arday only received his PhD in 2015. If this is true, then there are over 35 people whose PhDs are tainted.
PhDs are examined by two academics, the internal examiner, and the external who comes from another university. Broadly speaking, the internal ensures that the student gets a fair ride, while the external is there to enforce standards. The name of the external examiner will typically appear on the PhD graduate's CV, because it tells you who has attested that this is PhD-level work.
We now know that Arday's own PhD was plagiarised. But even if it hadn't been, his work was of such low quality that no university should have elevated him to the position of supervising or examining PhD students.
There are many victims here. I hope we will hear from some of them.

Its not racist it not being a far right hooligan! its solid hard FACTS! 🇬🇧
The parents of 30,000 children have been forced to pull their kids from private school due to Labour imposing VAT on fees, but you will be unsurprised to learn one of them is not lefty Energy Secretary Miatta Fahnbulleh who sends ALL three kids to independents.
The Mail on Sunday, which revealed a classic piece of “ do as I say but not as I do” Socialism estimates her bill will be £50K.
I reckon it will be nearer £65K depending on the ages of the children.
Her pay as a minister probably wouldn’t be enough, so the bill is likely to be shared by her much cleverer husband, a City trader and hedge fund founder.
At home he’s not listening to all that Socialist shite from his 46-year-old wife and I presume has insisted they ALL go to private school.
In 2024 Ms Fahnbulleh ( who herself went to a private school) hailed the imposition of VAT on private schools.
She lives in South East London with her husband and clearly having seen the dreadful state schools in the area decided an independent was the answer.
Luckily, after two years of tax increases, she and her husband could still afford it.
30,000 couldn’t.
Energy Secretary, Miatta Fahnbulleh, who hailed the Labour’s decision to remove the exemption of VAT from private school fees, sends ALL of her children to private school.
Imagine how parents who can no longer send their children to private school feel seeing such hypocrisy.
