The linked transcript of the interview says the first unnoticed "fuck" also came from Jones, not Matlock. Can anyone verify?— Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.141.159.93 ( talk) 20:14, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

A lot of the people listed were never considered part of the Bromley Contingent. Jordan was much older, and although she was photographed with them in Westwood's Boutique and Clubs, she never really hung around with them outside of the Punk Scene. If you include Jordan you might as well include Helen "of Troy" Lloyd Wellington, and Vivienne Westwood. Simone Thomas dated a member of the Bromley Contingent, I want to say Simon Barker but I believe he's gay; she wasn't seen with them in the early days and vanished not long after the Bill Grundy interview. Also I've never heard of Tony James being associated with the Bromely Contingent; he may have been friends with them, well definately Billy Idol, but being associated doesn't make him a member. It's all really confusing of course; I mean somewhere there's a video of Caroline Coon interviewing Sid Vicious, Siouxsie Sioux, and Bertie Marshall that identifies Sid as a member. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.63.206.246 ( talk) 04:25, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
In my view part of the mess is the bit specifying which 'members' actually came from Bromley. I've had a go at tidying that up. It used to say that some members came from Orpington (which ones?), which has been part of Bromley since 1965. Similarly, it said Siouxsie Sioux was from Chislehurst, which was then and is now also part of Bromley. Steven Severin is listed as being from Bromley, and he did go to Ravens Wood School - which is as close to Chislehurst and Orpington as it is to Bromley town centre. Idol obviously had a connection with Bromley, having been to Ravensbourne Boys' School at some point, after having lived in various places, including the US, and his family were living in Sussex by 1976, so I'm never sure why he's always described as being "from" Bromley - though as a Bromley boy myself, I'm proud that he is. All this info is available to check on Wikipedia, or via Google maps, except the bit about me being a Bromley boy, which you'll have to take on trust. (BTW I was at Hayes School, Bromley in the late 1970s, and the school always claimed a connection to Generation X, but I've never been able to establish what it was.)

Better be guided by who we see in Ray Stevenson’s various classic pix from 1976. Google finds plenty. https://100punksrule.wordpress.com/2013/03/17/the-bromley-contingent-77/ 217.155.200.241 ( talk) 21:53, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
