The screenwriters of the BAFTA winning James Bond movie, Skyfall, are to receive honorary degrees from the University of Kent tomorrow.

Neal Purvis and Robert Wade will receive their awards at Canterbury Cathedral at 10.30am.

The acclaimed writers have written five James Bond films, including Skyfall, the UK's highest grossing movie.

Purvis studied Film and Photographic Arts, while Wade studied Film Theory and English at the university.

Nice to see P & W getting the recognition they deserve, rather than being endlessly lambasted for DAD.
