Non-notable newsreader and actor (who mostly played newsreaders) and my searches found nothing significant here, here, here and here (all passing mentions and the last two Highbeam and Thefreelibrary have the same results and Newspapers Archive search found nothing). As a possible move target, the only possibility is List of The Goodies guest stars. SwisterTwister talk 17:19, 7 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Woodall was "known to millions in the early 1960s" as this obituary states. This gives some detail on his posts as TV and radio presenter, and this lists appearances in The Goodies and in films. This reminiscence contains information on his later broadcasting career. He figures in a work of fiction as a "familiar face". The article should stay and become better referenced: Noyster (talk), 14:35, 21 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep; agree with Noyster, a familiar face to Britons in the 1960s and 1970s, even if we didn't always know his name. Alansplodge (talk) 13:07, 23 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. As others have said - a prominent face on British national TV in the 1960s/70s, definitely meets notability requirements. Ghmyrtle (talk) 07:42, 26 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
