Notes
[edit]I have removed "Wilcox's brother later told him that while they were both at school in Shene in the early 1960s, Billy Wells ran a barber's shop a couple of minutes down the road." as completely unverifiable and failing WP:V. TerriersFan 17:21, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
Although I think the factoid is exactly the kind of thing that anyone reading this page would be interested to see, and although I think it's a shame they can't find it on the page any more, I completely appreciate the verifiability argument. The only proof I have to back it up is my dad's own unpublished word, so if I tried to make a case for this I'd have to side with a billion other unverified edits whose authors I'd be just as skeptical of as TerriersFan clearly is of mine (and rightly so).

Birthday
[edit]I can't find out Wilcox's exact birthday, but this 2018 source said he was 73 years old at the time of writing. https://www.somersetlive.co.uk/news/celebs-tv/who-wants-millionaire-original-million-1520118 Extrapolation puts the birth year as 1944-1945. This needs more clarification, preferably a specific source.Bibeyjj (talk) 12:42, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
