message: I can only assume that "I have in my hand a piece of paper", etc is one of those well-remembered-but-not-accurate misquotes? i.e. . I guess it might be worth mentioning this, as it's quote a commonly-remembered phrase alongside the actual text (in the same way as the for/in our time misquote is discussed). Can anybody shed any light on where this misquote came from? Bob talk 08:17, 27 October 2012 (UTC)

message: I removed the "Good man" quote from here, since it seems that telegram was actually sent before the deal was signed.  Thus, I added it to Munich Agreement instead. Superm401 - Talk 05:16, 5 October 2013 (UTC)

message: Isn't the statement, in the paragraph following the introductory, that "anyone of his [Chamberlain's] background would have been familiar with" Peace in our time from the Anglican Prayer Book etc rather vague?  More clarification would be welcome - is it background of class, religion, nationality etc? Religiously, Chamberlain came of a nonconformist (Unitarian) family background.Cloptonson.

replies: text: I believe that 'Peace in/for our time' was a headline in one of the notable newspapers on the day (The Sketch), and that Chamberlain was persuaded by a reporter/advisers to use the words, although the headline had already been planned. This memory of mine is from a long ago BBC documentary. I have quickly looked, but cannot find sources for this claim.Pincrete (talk) 15:56, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

message: I have reverted the 21Jan2023 revision to the quoted 'Peace for our time' speech, as it was not in the original cited transcription, nor was it wholly supported by any single reference that I can find so far.  Version 1 is the citation prior to 21Jan2023. See below, six online versions. Versions 1 to 3 (only) include "British Prime Minister" and "bringing". Version 4 to 6 (only) include "to Downing Street".
Version 1. "My good friends, for the second time in our history, a British Prime Minister has returned from Germany bringing peace with honour. I believe it is peace for our time... Go home and get a nice quiet sleep." eudocs.lib.byu.edu
Version 2. "My good friends, for the second time in our history, a British Prime Minister has returned from Germany bringing peace with honour. I believe it is peace for our time. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Go home and get a nice quiet sleep." Neville Chamberlain, 30 September 1938. (Pasture, P. (2015). 'Peace for Our Time': The European Quest for Peace.

Version 6. "My good friends this is the second time in our history that there has come back from Germany to Downing Street peace with honor. I believe it is peace in our time."

So, we have multiple variations of possible wording, and I hope that someone can help dig further into the issue. I suspect that the variations are due to a lack of a sound recording, lack of official transcript, and/or inadequate written notes by journalists.PeterWD (talk) 23:58, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I now have the opportunity to view a printed source, that is essentially the same as Version 1 above: PeterWD (talk) 12:34, 5 September 2023 (UTC)
