- 16:25, 27 September 2020 (hist) (diff) The Vault (→Trivia: I wouldn't *quite* say "a rate of knots", as Mel Sykes hosted precisely half of the 32 episodes. For genuine rates of knots, see Chain Letters, or the first few years of Call My Bluff)
- 19:09, 22 September 2020 (hist) (diff) The Vault (→Trivia: gotta mention the four occasions on which the jackpot was won by a home caller, too - and especially the last of these)
- 16:38, 22 September 2020 (hist) (diff) All Time Winners List (Unless I'm mistaken, Kwan Loo's Vault jackpot win was on the 15th of June 2002, rather than the 19th. The first series of The Vault aired on Saturday nights, and the 19th was a Wednesday)
- 16:32, 22 September 2020 (hist) (diff) The Vault (→Trivia: may as well point out their respective jackpot questions, too - these not being *quite* as well-known as questions about Eleanor of Aquitaine, Quercus robur or the Rank gongman)
- 16:26, 22 September 2020 (hist) (diff) The Vault (→Trivia: the jackpot was won by a studio player on just two occasions - so here are those two winners, the respective dates on which they won, and their respective total prizes)
- 19:47, 19 September 2020 (hist) (diff) Weaver's Week 2012-01-15 (→Raise the Roof: obviously, I wouldn't ever dream of rewriting Weaver's articles - but there is one tiny little change I'd like to make in this one, and that's to correct Mike Woolmans' first name)
- 04:26, 19 September 2020 (hist) (diff) Raise the Roof (→High Five: you could get one question wrong and still win the house, provided you got the other four questions right)
- 04:05, 19 September 2020 (hist) (diff) Raise the Roof (This change is really one for consistency's sake; the trend now is to state only the composer's name (plus their credit if it's an unusual one like "Musical Director", which wasn't the case here))
- 04:00, 19 September 2020 (hist) (diff) Raise the Roof (RTR aired some 17 years before The Bank Job, and they didn't have *that* much in common besides the hosts using question tablets. So here's a shorter, less cumbersome caption for Bob with his tablet)
- 21:04, 13 September 2020 (hist) (diff) Magnus Magnusson (Magnus was diagnosed with cancer on his 77th birthday, and died a little under three months later - hence, and with no disrespect intended, there's no real need to state what age he was when he died) (top)
- 20:57, 13 September 2020 (hist) (diff) Matt Dawson (I probably should say *former* rugby union scrum-half, too. ;) Also added his headshot)
- 20:13, 13 September 2020 (hist) (diff) Matt Dawson (Should probably point out the year in which Dawson became a QoS captain. He is indeed the longest-serving; I presume he's also made more appearances than Ally McCoist (who made 363 in only 11 years))
- 19:55, 13 September 2020 (hist) (diff) Matt Dawson (→Biography: Dawson played for Northampton and Wasps - and, of course, he was a member of England's 2003 World Cup winning team)
- 19:45, 13 September 2020 (hist) (diff) Matt Dawson (→Biography: rugby *union*, of course (it's a very popular sport in my family). Also pointed out his position - but feel free to change to simply "player" if it's too confusing for non-rugby fans)
- 17:05, 13 September 2020 (hist) (diff) News Archive (→Game show news: I suppose "A Question of Split" *is* shorter... ;) Added a link to the new article on Dawson)
- 03:36, 13 September 2020 (hist) (diff) News Archive (→Game show news: whoopsie doodle :))
- 03:29, 13 September 2020 (hist) (diff) News Archive (→Game show news: just come up on the BBC site that Sue, Matt and Phil are all leaving A Question of Sport. Guess the hosting job *wasn't* Sue's for as long as she wanted it, after all...)
- 03:12, 13 September 2020 (hist) (diff) N File:Square QoS.jpg (The current logo for A Question of Sport, introduced in 2017) (top)
- 16:57, 12 September 2020 (hist) (diff) The Vault (Might be worth pointing out that while the first two series aired on Saturday nights, the third aired in what is still a "death slot" for ITV - Tuesdays at 8pm, opposite some big medical drama on BBC1)
- 04:11, 12 September 2020 (hist) (diff) Who Wants to be a Millionaire? (→Trivia: six millionaires now ;))
