Talk:Janice Long

message: "At the end of 1987, Janice was fired from Radio One for being pregnant and un wed to her now partner of 19 years." Is there any evidence for this claim?? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.42.26.251 (talk) 20:50, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

message: Since this is becoming a regular edit, I feel it worth noting that the norm would be to either say that the Radio 2 show airs from Sunday to Thursday nights from midnight to 3pm, or Monday to Friday mornings from midnight to 3pm. I'm not sure why the user keeps making this change. TheRetroGuy (talk) 18:09, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Two and a half years later and some people still don't learn.  As days in most TV guides run from 6am to 6am, it is right to say she is Sunday to Thursday nights. Now I know there's some weird way of doing it on the BBC website where they run from midnight to 6am the following day, but I think we need to apply some common sense here. I will revert any change to the timeslots which is similar to those above. By all means discuss it here, but don't just change it. TheRetroGuy (talk) 22:36, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

message: An anonymous user keeps adding a sentence which basically reads 'She lives with her boyfriend Jon Holmes'. Since the information is unreferenced I've removed it, but as it's becoming an issue, I'm just wondering whether it is correct. TheRetroGuy (talk) 19:00, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

message: I've never heard of this person, but she's apparently Keith Chegwin's sister and married someone called Long. Surely then she wasn't born with the name Long as the opening paragraph currently claims?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 145.40.136.10 (talk) 18:53, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

:Thanks. You are quite right. Some clickbait sites are reporting it now but they are just regurgitating the rumour for clicks and clearly don't know any more about it than we do. The BBC are not covering it and I don't see anything in a Google News search. If it is true then it will appear in reliable sources soon enough. Until then we wait. We do not want to risk upsetting her friends and family if there is any possibility that the story is untrue. --DanielRigal (talk) 01:52, 26 December 2021 (UTC)

message: The sentence "In 1989, she joined London station BBC Radio London, taking over from Nick Abbot on the breakfast show." is currently uncited in the article. this tweet is a photograph of a newspaper article that verifies she did indeed do this (when the station was named "Greater London Radio"), but I can't work out which newspaper it is. Can anyone help? Thryduulf (talk) 15:41, 26 December 2021 (UTC)

I have a CoI because I am working for the university, but I think this is a useful indication of Long's speaking voice, which is otherwise missing from the article, as well as being useful in its own right.
