@interwarintell @SourceMerlin @philipvmurphy I sincerely hope not!!

[Aber SRG @AberSRG]

@SourceMerlin @philipvmurphy I do have one but as I am in the middle of packing and moving for a new job, it is somewhere in the many boxes...

[Aber SRG @AberSRG]

I think this is something so many #PhD students and #postphd students can relate to, I know I do! #AcademicMentalHealth #phdlife

Russian media reporting MI6 officer turned KGB agent George Blake has died aged 98. A decade ago when I tried to talk to him for my book on MI6 he replied: “it is no longer of particular importance to me whether my motivations are generally understood or not”

I did one of these, and 10 years later I have a BSC, MA and PhD! #anythingispossible

#spyhistory #AdventCalendar #Day6 In December 1942 the medico-legal expert William Bentley Purchase, HM Coroner for London's Northern District, was brought in on Operation Mincemeat. His role was the acquisition of a dead body & devising the procedure for its formal disposal.

Interesting to see that Richard Moore is continuing to tweet and make #MI6 more visible as #C

[Richard Moore @XChiefMI6]

I took over as @ChiefMI6 two months ago today. Some early reflections:

Pleased to be back & reminded of just what an inspiring bunch of people I have the privilege to lead.

There’s plenty to do to keep us safe at home & our interests protected overseas 1/2

Agent SNOW Arthur Owens was one of MI5’s first Double Cross agents (of 120!)His code name was a partial anagram of his surname. This Welsh born sex crazed electrical engineer surprisingly could not be trusted & periodically spent time in prison.

Coincides with my 10 years of studying and then teaching at @InterpolAber
