MBE
editGB already was an MBE before he won his AM, but why was he awarded the MBE? Mjroots (talk) 18:01, 8 December 2009 (UTC)
- Hope I've answered this now, it's not terribly specific, but it's the best I can find. I did say there was more to come! David Underdown (talk) 22:44, 8 December 2009 (UTC)
Exact date of death?
editThe Times obit is referenced for GB dying in November 1987, does it not give the exact date? Mjroots (talk) 07:18, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
- Curiously no, it doesn't. In fact find-a-grave actually gives his date of death as 29 October 1987, but I'm not entirely convinced that it meets the criteria for being a reliable source, there's no real editorial control so far as I can see. David Underdown (talk) 09:34, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
