Tomorrow I'll be discussing the pragmatics of failed repair in mockumentary sitcoms at SAES 2025 in Toulouse. Looking forward to showing how we need a shift from an operational to a multimodal pragmatic construal of 'failed' repair.

Introducing my new project… Your Wrong (yourwrong.co.uk). It’s all about the language rules and judgements that appear in different forms of popular culture. Films, series, podcasts, music, books, even graffiti! I’d love your help to find examples!
