Talk:Sally Phillips

Comedienne
What's the objection to the word "comedienne"? Tim Ivorson 2006-06-27

Oxford contemporaries
How useful is it to be informed that she was the contemporary of Hari Kunzru and Louis Theroux? They were not at her college. Is there any evidence that she knew them? Does it make much difference if she did? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Macphysto (talk • contribs) 23:27, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Not, and they're gone. Irrelevant detail which adds nothing to an understanding of the topic. -- Rodhull andemu  23:32, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

Born again Christian
I've seen a few claims online (none of them WP:RS) that SP is a born again Christian. This would be suprising if true, not least because there aren't many literalist evangelical Christians in the UK, and still fewer with first class honours degrees from the University of Oxford. If somebody can confirm this with a good ref it should be added to the article. --Ef80 (talk) 19:07, 9 June 2015 (UTC)


 * That's rather assuming and condescending of you. Here's your link. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/profiles/always-the-best-friend-sally-phillips-on-christianity-comedians-and-the-class-system-8454458.html — Preceding unsigned comment added by Majorg82 (talk • contribs) 09:23, 1 October 2015 (UTC)
 * I suggest you read WP:FAITH before making ad hominem comments. It would have been more helpful if you had been more specific, given that you appear to be connected to SP in some way (your sole WP contributions are to this article and its talk page). I should make it clear that I have enjoyed SP's work over the years and have no interest in making personal criticisms. Her religious views are completely her affair, but should be mentioned if they are notable, which I believe they are. --Ef80 (talk) 00:20, 11 June 2017 (UTC)

The Museum of Curiosities
This article says "Since 2018, Sally Phillips has been curator of the museum on Radio 4's The Museum of Curiosities". It can now add that in 2019, she has been succeeded by Bridget Christie in the role. Vorbee (talk) 15:29, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
