Paul Boughton

Paul Boughton is a journalist and editor who spent his working life in weekly, evening and daily newspapers, magazines and websites.

From 1999 to 2015, he was editor of a portfolio in international business-to-business engineering and science magazines and websites. He is currently Editor-in-Chief of Engineer News Network, an online news and information source for engineers, which he launched in October 2017.

In 2007, Paul gained a Diploma in Egyptology from Birkbeck College (University of London). In this field, he has so far published three articles in the UK-based Ancient Egypt magazine. They are The Lost Sarcophagus, (2009); The Titanic Shabti (2008); Menkaure's anthropoid coffin: a case of mistaken identity (2006).

In a moment of unusual eccentricity, in 2015, he became a film and television extra in search of fame, glory and vast riches. This did not happen, but he did become an unmemorable blur in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (2016), A United Kingdom (2016). Other work included a Tesco advertisement (2016), The Crown (2017), The Hunger Artist (2017), The Children Act (2018) and Wild Rose (2018), where he remained completely unrecognised, even to himself. He then came to his senses and retired to a life of peaceful oblivion.

Paul currently lives in North London, just four miles from Lady Valerie Meux's former home, Theobalds Park. He has a cat called Truffle who refuses to be renamed Lady Mews.
