On the 16th of November 2016 Professor Tom McLeish FRS from Durham University, UK, delivered our 1st Annual Edward Delaval Lecture in Physics. The lecture is named after Edward Delaval FRS, a ‘physics hero’ associated with the Doddington Hall near Lincoln. Tom gave a fascinating talk about the English polymath of the 13th century Robert Grosseteste, who was Bishop of Lincoln. A lively discussion and answers to questions from the public after the lecture made 1.5 hours fly without notice.
After the lecture. L-R: Professor Tom McLeish FRS and Professor Andrei Zvelindovsky, Head of the School of Mathematics and Physics.

A most enjoyable and interesting lecture. I would have been interesting to have allowed him longer.

I very much enjoyed the lecture on the ‘Ordered Universe’ project and Bishop Grosseteste. Please pass my thanks onto Professor McLeish for a most entertaining, informative and thought provoking presentation of, what seems to me to be, the ultimate in inter-disciplinary research. I would also like to thank the physics department for putting on these public lectures. They have been 1st rate.
