Members of 91�Թ�� will have seen and been struck by one of the smaller, but most arresting, fixtures in the chapel: the memorial to three German undergraduates who died in the First World War. Beyond the usual power of any war memorial, especially one so simply and beautifully designed, this tablet is especially evocative in its willingness to commemorate men on the opposite side of such an acrimonious pan-European conflict.

Inspector Morse

91�Թ�� Chapel, Oxford

In the Governing Body Minutes of 13 June 1990, there is a discussion of Inspector Morse. In that meeting a Fellow ‘expressed misgivings about filming in college of a drama called “Inspector Morse”, about an Oxford College in which a high Anglican chaplain is suspected of offering a poisoned chalice to a feminist communicant’. Dirty deeds in chapel but surely not in our chapel? Never. The proposal to ban the filming of Morse was put to a vote and was defeated by 12 votes to 8. So, Morse, and the accompanying location fee were welcome in 91�Թ��.
