Article was nominated for speedy deletion but sysop declined. BLP has no references and notability is questionable. Only notable appearance is in a 1969 film that links to a dab that does not list the film among the possible meanings. Dusty|💬|You can help! 17:44, 10 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep, if improved. I'm not that knowledgeable about UK television, but apparently he played at least one lead role in a television series. However, not much has been written about him that's available online. I did disamb the Kes wikilink, and added a Google Books ref related to Kes, but that's all I've found that is even remotely substantial. --| Uncle Milty | talk | 18:51, 10 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete -- unless he played a major character in a soap over a long period, my impression isthat he is a minor actor, playing small roles and doing a lot of "resting". Peterkingiron (talk) 15:00, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The Kes role was a major character in a very significant film. Phil Bridger (talk) 15:54, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep He had major roles in Kes (film), which is an important film in British cinema history, sitcom Queenie's Castle and in Jack Rosenthal's well-remembered, acclaimed and award-winning TV play Another Sunday and Sweet F.A[1]. That meets WP:NACTOR. In addition he played smaller roles in important TV programs like Corrie and Play For Today which are well-covered in reliable sources. --Colapeninsula (talk) 08:52, 24 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
keep this. Barney the barney barney (talk) 17:00, 24 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Agree this meets the criteria of "significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows", including the historical significance of Kes noted Silverwood (talk) 21:26, 24 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
