After the roaring success of our October "chew through the topical comms cud" we're back again to cast a critical eye over what was November.

We are going to have a look at: enquiries, unexpected comebacks, codenames, northern supermarkets and AI. We'll attempt to distil a little insight which we professional communicators can take from how these events played out and what, with the magic of hindsight, we might have done differently.
