Today

When did Robert Robinson *stop* presenting the Today programme? If known, please add this date on the presenters list at that page! --PeterR 20:31, 16 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Triffid

I'm pretty sure that the Robert Robinson who appeared in Day of the Triffids (and Campion) was a different man entirely. Anyone know for sure?

So am I. It needs a very clear source to be accepted. It didn't feature in his autobiography.88888 14:09, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Schooldays

At one time, Robert Robinson attended Harrow County School, in London. I know this because my late father was another alumnus. Hair Commodore 19:39, 9 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Competitive

No one could listen to Stop the Rot and not realise how competitive it was. It was palpable. And RR characterises it exactly as "competitive" in Skip All That (chapter called "Stop the Rot"). The competitiveness was referred to by participants during the programmes themselves. Jagdfeld (talk) 15:15, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
