both the "Credo" link and the "Laurence Olivier" links are links for those objects instead to the books that Melvyn Bragg wrote. Is this correct?
Nope. I've changed them. Proteus (Talk) 17:19, 6 May 2004 (UTC)
Are you sure he has a BA? I don't mean to be strange, but if he went to Oxford I believe his BA would officially disappear when he upgraded it to an MA, no? Possibly a full listing of his credentials would be useful (i.e. (Oxon) after the oxford degrees, an (Honorary) or something to that effect after which (if any) of his degrees are honorary.
When did he become Baron Bragg and not Lord Bragg??
- What the fuck are you talking about? People address him as Lord Bragg because he's a baron. 86.138.17.141 23:19, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
Are you sure it was Wadham? His newsleter said about his remembrance of his days at Christ Church when he skipped services..
A Computing Cluster (group of computers set aside for general use by students) is named after Lord Bragg at the University of Leeds. It is called the "Bragg Cluster".
I always thought the Bragg CLuster was named after William_Henry_Bragg and William_Lawrence_Bragg.
I was mildly surprised to hear on the radio the other day that the first cited use of the word "prat" was by Melvyn Bragg. Can anyone with access to the OED confirm this and find out the year and the context? 86.138.17.141 11:29, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
