Lectures

I have a number of different lectures/presentations. I can deliver these in any length from 20 to 60 minutes. I am an accomplished presenter who is conversant with powerpoint presentations. I am equally at home presenting with no reliance on technology. 

 

Current titles are:

  • My Life in Prison  – Governor, an impossible job.

  • My Life in Prison – It’s no fun being a prisoner.

  • The sometimes secret history of an English Prison in Essex  - Its surprising connections.

  • The Real Porridge – A look back at that fabulous TV series and why it is still relevant today.

  • Prison Line of duty – A real life operation  to trap corrupt officers of the law.
