replies: text: There is no historic connection between those two divisions as far as I can tell. A number of other units also had different designations in WWI and WWII and accordingly have (or had, I haven't checked lately) separate articles. If you wish I will take a closer look at the issue in general.--Caranorn (talk) 11:41, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Perhaps we need 2 separate articles then, this is the case with some other divisions too. I don't know much about the 66th Division in WWI, so I am not the person to write the article. My inquiry here originates from a link I made from the 42nd Division, which now points to a WWII division which is obviously not right. Perhaps either you or I could create a stub as a placeholder, named 66th (2nd East Lancashire) Division ? Rcbutcher (talk) 12:48, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd have to look up the information on the internet (I think I wrote a couple of WWI division stubs that way once) as I have no reliable source for that conflict. But yes, a separate article would be the best approach, if there was a continuous history just adding a section to this article and modifying the intro would do but that does not seem to be the case. I just did a quick search, there seems to be a lot of info here 1914-1918, of course do not copy directly. I'd also just do a start (August/September 1914) order of battle. If you don't feel confident in doing this let me know, I'm quite busy right now but I could probably fit a stub into my timeplan.--Caranorn (talk) 14:47, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, I've created a stub entry for 66th (2nd East Lancashire) Division. I don't want to just copy any stuff from Chris Baker's site, so I hope somebody will adopt the page and do their own research to provide a decent article. Rcbutcher (talk) 09:57, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I obviously didn't mean to copy material directly, rather use the site as source. I will add a quick order of battle from that material but I won't have time to do anymore than that right now.--Caranorn (talk) 11:51, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Nickname 

message: The current Order of Battle shows that two wings of the Glider Pilot Regiment was attached to the division for the invasion of Normandy, is this correct? I would have imagined they were assigned to lift the division in but not temporally attached to the division so i.e Gale would have command etc of them.
Can anyone clear this up?--EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 14:12, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, it's my understanding that the Glider Regiment pilots were trained as infantry and often fought alongside the infantry they had piloted into battle. Whether that means they were under Gale's control I'm unsure of. Skinny87 (talk) 16:39, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: At Arnham they were deployed as Infantry and dug in holding the line , I have not read/seen anything about what they did in Normandy , Skinny 87 is correct that they were trained as infantry unlike there US couterparts who had had no training and had to be defended by the troops they delivered .

message: "The series' three seasons attained great popularity in the United Kingdom, with ratings averaging between 14 to 20 million viewers." It would be interesting to see a reference for these figures. They seem implausibly huge. According to Wikipedia itself the wedding of Charles and Diana had 28.40 million viewers, and an average of between 14 to 20 million viewers would make several episodes among the most-watched of all time in the UK. At least one episode would surely appear on the BFI's list of the most popular programmes of the 1980s, here. It simply was never that popular. -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 22:19, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, that's far too large. The link you've given is broken now, but  there's one here [link is no good either] and D&M doesn't appear once in the top 10 for 85 or 86 - the lowest figures being 17.3m, so it could never have hit 20m.

From what I recall, they were usually happy with the attention, and Tom and Diana generally referred to him as "Bonking Baz", giving the impression that he was more than successful in his intentions.

It would be fascinating to find out if any of the previous Acts were applied  to events occurring in the part of the Parliamentary session before they were written. The other alternative may be that the laws were said to come into force at the start of the session for administrative reasons, but that they were never applied to previous events on a ex post facto basis.
