I doubt Miss Bowles was born in 1945! Does anybody know what year she was really born in? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.26.190.83 ( talk) 18:08, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
Yup they said it again this morning. Someone got to editing it before I did though.
Well either it's a running joke, or she looks very good for her age :-) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.26.182.27 ( talk) 18:32, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
This page was mentioned this morning, 2 November 2007, on Wake up to Wogan. Lynn Bowles suggested that she wasn’t born in 1945 as per this page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nellkyn ( talk • contribs) 09:38, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
It was pretty clear from this morning's show that she wasn't born in 1945, so I've removed the DoB. 194.72.35.70 10:23, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
I've replaced Limericks with short poems; they aren't Limericks on WUTW. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Apepper ( talk • contribs) 20:38, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
I know the BBC website claims she rides into the BBC on a donkey cart, but I have the feeling that might be a jape! 213.246.123.167 ( talk) 20:04, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
I have removed the date of birth from the article, the ref provided doesn't provide the information without paying for it, and the date has been changed multiple times while the reference has remained the same. I tried to do some basic research on it, but different sources provide at least 3 alleged dates of birth. Until someone can provide a relatively authoritative source to verify, it should stay out per WP:BLP Monty 845 00:13, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
This morning I heard Ms Bowles say, when talking to Chris Evans, that her Wikipedia article was very inaccurate, though she seemed amused by this rather than annoyed. Unfortunately she did not say what the mistakes were. Of course it's possible that she hasn't looked at the article for some time, and that it's been improved since she last did so.

Is findmypast.co.uk forbidden by WP:BLPPRIMARY? I see no mention of that site. The source given for Bowles date of birth (27 January 1963), which has now been removed twice by User:Egghead06 here and here, was this. In fact, why is findmypast listed as one of our "Partner Databases" at Wikipedia:The Wikipedia Library/Databases? Thanks. Martinevans123 ( talk) 08:50, 30 March 2018 (UTC)

I wonder if User:Ponyo as the instigator of the question and an administrator has any updates?-- Egghead06 ( talk) 09:23, 1 April 2018 (UTC)
Somewhat surprisingly, the only Lunn Bowles birth registration in Cardiff, between 1960 and 1965, recorded by FreeBMD is this one, mother's name Prosser, for last quarter 1963. This does not square with 27 January 1963 apparently supported by GRO and findmypast.com (see above). However FreeBMD does tie in with the Companies House entry here which gives Lynn Mari Bowles with a date of birth of November 1963. "DASHWOOD & TWIST LIMITED" have a business of: 01500 - Mixed farming and 60100 - Radio broadcasting. Martinevans123 ( talk) 07:47, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
