Untitled[edit]

"Ironically, he holds a degree in Aeronautical Engineering and is a qualified private pilot." Why is that ironic? Maybe I skimmed the article too fast... EAi (talk) 22:44, 6 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, I thought that too. I've taken the "Ironically" out. -UK-Logician-2006 (talk) 19:17, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, and have removed it a second time. Someone put it back along with some other meaningless nonsense (apparently they find ethnic names amusing and consider it notable that Tilling can pronounce them). I have removed this also. God Emperor (talk) 20:42, 3 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

University Challenge[edit]

I've replaced

'Whilst at Granada Television, he became a temporary announcer of University Challenge for the 1997 series, and then returned permanently in 2001 and has remained the voice of the programme to date. His voice is often heard on many shows that recall the lowest ever total of points scored by any University team in the history of the programme back in 1997 (35 points), and an even lower one by the House Of Commons when their team in 2003 scored only 25 points.'

Apart from getting in a dig at politicians, as his voice is heard at the start of every show, I don't see that this is particularly noteworthy. Rojomoke (talk) 09:12, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
