    The first edition I got was in 1992 and that was almost free of errors. They did however get one of the photos mixed up – I think it was involving Midlothian.

    In the 1983 guide, former speaker Michael Martin’s photo appeared twice.

    For some unknown reason, they also said Sir James Hill contested Southampton Test in 1968 three editions running.
    In 1987 they said Chelsea was the most marginal Labour seat.
