Spelling

[edit]

Shouldn't "Liquorice" be the correct spelling of the nickname? DavidFarmbrough (talk) 10:52, 22 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No he always spelt it "Licorice" MonksCroft (talk) 12:25, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Age confusion

[edit]

The article that is used as the source says that he was 82.

Some other sources are saying that he was born in 1940. MikaelaArsenault (talk) 19:27, 8 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

He was born in 1938 as correctly recorded here. I have that from his as-yet unpublished biography which he had read and checked. MonksCroft (talk) 12:24, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Illness Confusion

[edit]

In the last few months Brain suffered from Bell's Palsy. He had never suffered from cerebral palsy. I had made this correction but it was reverted. I knew him personally. The article paints Brian as a blind cripple which could not be further from the truth. ChasScotty (talk) 06:40, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
