Untitled[edit]

Before adding 'She starred in ABC/BBC film with Keith Michelle', I wanted to find the name of the film. However, there doesn't seem to be a mention of it beyond the bios. agapetos_angel 04:17, 19 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Birth date and place. Also details of her son on Australian TV.[edit]

Does anyone have Candy's correct birth date or year. The IMDB lists it as 1956 but this is years too late, I'm sure she is in her late sixties. Secondly, her son is on Australian TV, under the McLeod name, but I don't know his first name or what he does. --Dmol 20:55, 19 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Alastair McLeod is the Executive Chef Brett's Wharf —Preceding unsigned comment added by Itullis (talk • contribs) 22:43, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Reference not valid[edit]

The reference relied on http://www.abc.net.au/sydney/stories/s666578.htm ([1] Story: Candy Devine - Belfast, Northern Ireland, 702 ABC Sydney, Presenter: Angela Catterns, 4 September 2002) is not valid.

1987 Live Air Blooper Rumour[edit]

Rumour continue in Northern Ireland about a 1987 "blooper" which occured on air, in which a caller shouted "big f**king hairy hole" live on a candy call in —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.7.111.33 (talk) 17:23, 16 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Birth date.[edit]

I've reverted the edit listing her birth year as 1956. She's much older than that, and the only reference I could find for 1956 is IMDB. They are not considered a reliable reference, and they also incorrectly list her as birthplace as Belfast when she was actually born in North Queensland Australia.--Dmol (talk) 00:33, 18 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Candy Devine was born on September 4, 1956. Period; end of story. After all, it's not like she was born in 1946 or something before that. Capisce? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.110.184.147 (talk) 01:52, 21 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I have recently read a news article stating that she got married in 1970, so she was probably born in 1951 or 1952.2601:3:1000:593:5587:B230:C248:E7BE (talk) 12:58, 2 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I've added a lot of new info with refs, including from her old college. She started her education in 1948 and was in college in "the early 50s". I think she was born in the mid to late 40s, but it would be nice to have it accurately referenced. Obviously the 1956 listed on IMDB is wrong. --Dmol (talk) 23:46, 5 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

IMDB birth date has been removed, again. I've supplied a newspaper reference which shows Faye Ann Guivarra was in Cairns, aged nine, in May 1948. This means she was born in late 1938 or early 1939, I've added ca. 1939 to the article. I've clarified the 1948 year information and the school she attended according to another newspaper ref.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 04:50, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
