[edit]The Jonathon Sanchez link to his wikipedia page is incorrect. This page is about a London talk radio presenter. She certainly did not co-host a radio show in 1999 with Jonathon Sanchez the American baseball player! I propose removal of the link but the name stays as it's probably just someone with the same name.
"Her style the and characterised today is based on comedic observation of men" I've no idea what this is trying to say. Sure, if you remove the "the and characterised today" you get a nice simple sentence, but I can't help feeling those words need a home. We can't just abandon them--86.160.92.120 (talk) 07:03, 27 June 2013 (UTC)
You know, I'm pretty sure Chris Evans had a marriage previous to his one with Carol.
- Not necessarily, Evans had a daughter called Jade to Alison Ward (this is mentioned on the Chris Evans page), but it doesn't say whether Evans and Ward were married. Douglasnicol 14:20, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
- McGiffin's marriage to Evans was her only marriage and the first of his three marriages. Jim Michael (talk) 00:30, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
Birthdate
[edit]contradictory dates on the main page!! which is correct? can't believe no one has noticed this before (not unless it was deliberate by someone?) can someone update? Geeness (talk) 21:35, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
Birthplace
[edit]Why do people keep changing her birthplace to Islington, London when it is Maidstone in Kent? Douglasnicol (talk) 18:07, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
- There's no source. I can't find her in the birth index. All her siblings were born in London. Jim Michael (talk) 12:27, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
Ancestry.com shows 4 McGiffin/Barham children all registered in Islington: Kim A (1958), Carol D (1960), Mark J (1961)Tracey N (1963. They don't seem to be in the Phone Book for the period. Sebmelmoth (talk) 13:27, 30 May 2017 (UTC). However they were living at 36a High Street, Hornsey between 1957 and 1962 - Electoral Roll on Ancestry, so the children were probably not born in Maidstone.Sebmelmoth (talk) 13:35, 30 May 2017 (UTC)
Separated
[edit]The opening sentence says she separated from Evans in 1994, while the personal life section says it was 1993. Not that I really care, but someone might so I felt obliged to mention it. Beanhead McGinty (talk) 22:28, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
