Keep has a large number of roles in film, TV, radio, theatre and video games. Sources can be definitely be improved, I have added one for a theatre role mentioned. Tim! (talk) 17:06, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete No major roles. Deathlibrarian (talk) 02:46, 3 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - wp:nactor also includes "significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances" (my emphasis). While the article needs to be better sourced, he's had significant roles in multiple stage productions. While a small role, the waiter in Death of a Salesman is borderline significant, which he did on the West End. He played one of the lead roles in the stage production of James Joyce's Finnegan's Wake at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. Add to that his role in Inherit the Wind at the Old Vic, and he passes WP:NACTOR. His writing of the rap song also doesn't hurt his notability. Unfortunately, there's nothing like ibdb.com for the UK, if there were, I have a feeling that it would be even easier to show his notability. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 13:07, 9 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
