Blouse[edit]

Should we mention THAT blouse at all? It seems to have raised quite a discussion at Digital Spy as well as being noted on El Reg. --Kiand 03:47, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Certainly, your link shows a yellow and green scarf and blouse.

There seems to be no reference to the blouse in the article now.

One single source. 13 years ago. Hardly "an outrage". Possibly belongs at a blog for Disgusted of Tunbridge Wells. Martinevans123 (talk) 12:59, 26 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Need some clarity on where she went?[edit]

Can anyone who knows about these things clarify the following sentence?: "Silverton went to Zimbabwe with Raleigh International, spending her gap year working for them in Egypt and Lebanon.[6]" Darllenydd proflenni (talk) 15:38, 25 July 2016 (UTC) Darllenydd proflenni[reply]

The Lady Who Flew Africa[edit]

She presented a programme called "The Lady Who Flew Africa" on BBC Four on October 30 2017. If anybody wishes to add more information about her media career, this could be put in the article, but I do understand if one wishes to say we should not add information on just about any programme that a person has broadcasted to an article. Vorbee (talk) 21:04, 30 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Date of birth[edit]

This source from The Daily Telegraph, published 8 May 2009 describes here as "38-year-old". If this is correct, she was born in 1970 or 1971. FreeBMD shows that her birth was registered in the September quarter of 1970: [1]. Martinevans123 (talk) 10:46, 30 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
