And you're an expert, classically trained in the laws of physics? Fly's in the face of expansion? You need a little more base than some internet searches and some TV programs to get a clue of what you are talking about. No offense.
It has been MANY years since we have known that light can be bent, especially under the force of massive and even not so massive gravitational forces. As a matter of fact it was the very discovery of light bending under these circumstances that helped prove and solidify Einstein's theory of relativity which to that date was widely disregarded by mainstream science.
I imagine I could produce many theories you have never even heard of.
That being said, he too, is wrong. Our universe, through the discovery of CMBR (cosmic microwave background radiation), is basically a flattened oval. And yes it is expanding, as other galaxies seem to be racing away from us at ever increasing speeds. If you were able to follow a beam of light to the edge of the universe it would not just disappear and reappear somewhere else. It would begin to bend long before it reached the edge and in affect begin to loop back around the curve.
Hope that helps.
