Oxford Student Pranks
With wit and a keen sense of the ridiculous ,we trace the history of student mischief through the nine centuries
of Oxford University’s existence and demonstrate
that however poorly students may behave today,
it is nothing to the 13th century.
Richard is an entertaining speaker and also, amongst
other things, a script-writer for ‘The News Quiz’ and
‘The Now Show’
