In case it might be relevant, where was your father born? And indeed, in what year was he born?

On the basis of all those facts I think it is totally clear that you are not a British Citizen, and there is no basis of applying to become a British Citizen.

ok thanks for the info heres another case

my dad during the 60s lived in the uk when he left he got his girlfriend pregnant something he claims didnot know about, the child my elder brother (Iain) was given into adoption, according to some law that was passed, every adopted child was entitled to know who were there biological parents, based on this Iain was able to contact my father and we all met and had a family reunion. Can he file for my dad, and afterwards my dad for me.

Your brother is British? He can't pass citizenship back anyway, so no, it's a non-starter...
