His date of birth[edit]

Please note that Ian Collins has claimed on talk show that he did not enter his real date of birth on his website, therefore it is not correct. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.232.238.67 (talk) 01:15, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have noticed, clicking on the history / stored pages of this site, that the birthday changes all the time, month, day and year. Maybe this is sort of a running joke here. (I came here following a trail of vandalism (by "Pope" something) who changed it from 1966 to 1956, but I could never find any date stable enough to revert it back to so I just left it!)

He's a very unreliable source, even about himself, the massive cock. --OhNoPeedyPeebles (talk) 20:46, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Collins and Politics.[edit]

Collins has stated many times his interest in Politics and the numerous visits he regularly makes to the House of Commons Press Room. Why the above contributor should think him ignorant of Politics he may like to explain. Collins is also a regular News Reviewer for both Sky and the B.B.C. He has often expressed his admiration for the professionalism and comprehensive news coverage of the B.B.C. Collins is an admirer of Lady Thatcher, he has also stated many times his disgust at the 'Drunken, Gambling, Drug sodden country England is leading the world in becoming'.Johnwrd (talk) 04:02, 4 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What an ignorant little man he is. His absurd self-importance just makes the whole thing more hilarious. --84.68.177.173 (talk) 19:51, 29 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yup - he's a puffed up fool. --90.241.208.227 (talk) 17:01, 1 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Collins is a self-regarding little twat who knows nothing about anything that really matters. His claim to be a serious political journalist is undermined at every turn by a catalogue of ignorance and prejudice. --84.66.120.150 (talk) 21:53, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Danny Wallace[edit]

Is this the same Ian Collins mentioned in several Danny Wallace books? The name seems to agree, and in the books he is described as a radio presenter 86.168.137.15 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 11:21, 28 July 2009 (UTC).[reply]
