WP:NACTOR I wasn't able to find significant coverage in reliable sources to write a decent article (most of what my search turned up was simply copied from Wikipedia). Elli (talk | contribs) 03:45, 12 March 2021 (UTC)

- Weak Keep Added some refs as there weren't any. Not any real sigov other than Independent piece about radio 4 programme he conceived and starred in, and a Mirror interview which cannot be used as Sigcov, being a tabloid and an interview. However was a member of the RSC in 1979, and has held multiple roles in TV (including one of the best Only Fools episodes Chain Gang) which I think meets WP:NACTOR - just.Davidstewartharvey (talk) 09:31, 12 March 2021 (UTC)
- Keep He does show notability by playing a villain (not quite Jim Fenner, admittedly) in Bad Girls, as a result being nominated for a soap award as well as being a baddie (kinda) in a Doctor Who Dalek serial. Goes to prove he has recognition.2A00:23C6:D884:6401:6D68:AD35:3C75:C74F (talk) 10:58, 13 March 2021 (UTC)

- Keep I would have thought his television career makes him notable. He had a regular role in Doctors in which is character was at the centre of major plotlines and appeared as an important character in several episodes of Bad Girls, both of which were major TV series at the time he was in them. In addition he played the main guest character in an episode of Only Fools and Horses. His stage and radio work also appears to be notable. That said, there is less online coverage of his career than I might expect. Dunarc (talk) 20:40, 20 March 2021 (UTC)
