Richard Dhillon
Richard is an Early Career Fellow at the University of Warwick’s Institute of Advanced Study, and teaches in the Department of Film and Television Studies. Richard recently completed his PhD in Film and Television Studies at Warwick, where he previously gained an MA (for Research); he also holds degrees in History from the Universities of Birmingham (MA) and Worcester (BA). Richard’s doctoral research, ‘Queer Domesticities in British Situation Comedies’, explored a queer seam at the heart of British prime-time television during the 1960s and 1970s, manifest in both the form and content of situation comedy. More broadly, Richard’s research interests lie at the intersection of British film and television histories, and queer studies, and he is currently developing post-doctoral research on British light entertainment television.
