Always love the shows April 2010

Kevin is not fluent in French, he can speak it to a decent level though. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.106.36.225 (talk) 20:44, 28 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

he seemed very fluent in the Brittany episode in 2009. Maybe it was Breton ? Feroshki (talk) 01:56, 15 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

I don't recall this programme, but Breton is a Celtic language, similar to Cornish. Great Britain is named so in relation to Little Britain, as Brittany used to be called. Middle More Rider (talk) 02:48, 22 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

left hander

in the Eco Arch, he annotated a tile using his left hand. Feroshki (talk) 01:55, 15 July 2009 (UTC)Reply


I don't understand how he can (as stated in the introduction) live in a British farmhouse yet (as per the photo portrait panel on the right) be a resident of Tuvalu. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.161.188.77 (talk) 08:48, 12 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Problems

edit

Not sure where to put it so here goes: the Developer section of this article is terrible, both in terms of the sense-be-making syntax and the tenses/times perspective. I don't know enough about the guy to do this properly but it needs more than just a rewrite (ie. more refs) probably. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Peacay (talkcontribs) 09:32, 20 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

I've had a go at some slight editing. Robauz (talk) 05:13, 18 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Spouse's name under Kevin's photo does not match current wife's name in first paragraph of article. Needs to be corrected/clarified by someone who knows. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 1.44.88.163 (talk) 10:35, 10 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

McCloud's webpage says wife name is Zani, presumably this is short for Suzanne - though guesswork has no place here, of course! Sionk (talk) 00:15, 20 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Of Scottish ancestry?

edit

With a surname such as McCloud, I am inclined to think he must be of Scottish ancestry. Could this article go in the category called "English people of Scottish descent"? |||||Vorbee (talk) 08:05, 25 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

I used to have a college teacher surnamed Mcleod, pronounced 'McCloud', they were Scottish with a Scottish accent Middle More Rider (talk) 02:53, 22 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
