This is an article in need of some serious updates. It does not mention how Joan Bakewell broadcast the programme on Radio 3 in the early zeroes, although the BBC now appears to have finshed the series. ACEOREVIVED (talk) 23:03, 14 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Having made a comment that seems to have been unnoticed for two years, I have updated it myself now. ACEOREVIVED (talk) 15:09, 18 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

First sentence[edit]

The first sentence of this article tells us that The Brains Trust was broadcast in the 1940s and 1950s, but puts this programme in the categories "1941 debuts" and "1942 endings". This surely contradicts the first sentence of the article. Vorbee (talk) 17:38, 15 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hugh Ross Williamson was also a Chaiman of The Brains Trust 1955 and also appeared on the panel in the 1950's. JuliaAsh (talk) 23:39, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
