We can open this up to the PhDs you've heard about (i.e. not your own research).

Quote From missspacey:

Isn't this question just a bit of light relief?

it was... wish i'd not bothered now :-(

Quote From XJR:

I was talking a lecturer at the university of leicester a few years ago who was supervising a social science Phd on the sport of Ultimate Frisbee and how it is growing in popularity across the UK. Not exactly weird but I bet there isn't too many people who have done PhDs on that topic.

Also, I'm just about to listen to the Thinking Allowed podcast (from BBC radio 4) and they are discussing the research into the 'ping pong' clubs in Thailand on that, and i'm very interested to hear how this has been studied as a topic of social research.

This is more like it.

PhDbug - I know what you are saying and I know every PhD subject is pretty unique and will be alien to someone. I think you know what was meant from the question :p no need to be pedantic.

Interesting or not, it's still a strange thing to do. (Compared to medical research or engineering for example)

Ok ok, well as an example there was a discussion on PhDs on BBC radio Scotland a couple of months ago where someone was doing a PhD in the Eurovision song contest
