Mulholland Boyle Leeds Paediatric Surgery Admirals Earl of Orrery
On the BBC this morning, Greg Mulholland MP said (I paraphrase), "Roger Boyle needs to account for his actions".
He meant the other one.
I think. For the record, he is "Professor Sir Roger Boyle", while I am "Visiting Professor Boyle", an eternal disappointment to my sisters. If this baffles you, compare the issue with the hierarchy of Admirals.
(I'm fairly sure Mulholland wasn't referring to the other other one, or indeed his son, also blessed with my name.)
