The result was Keep. I'm unconvinced that this is non-notable. A quick Google also found an article on africanfilm.com which included a clip from an LA Times Review ([1]), and another which also contains a clip from City Limits ([2]). I'm pretty sure a viable stub can be cobbled together from these sources. Black Kite 20:50, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Playing Away[edit]

Non Notable television movie. No awards won, not even listed at Rotten Tomatoes or Metacritic. Appears to have been released on video at some point, but never on DVD. LegoTech·(t)·(c) 03:18, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Very famous actors star in this one. Article could do with some cleanup and copyediting, but that is not a reason for me to delete, or anyone else either, for that matter. asenine ^{say what?} 03:59, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy keep and a WP:TROUT for the ridiculous "I've not heard of it" nom. This was Ross Kemp's first lead role, for christ's sake. — iridescent 15:24, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

How about some AGF here, I found the article, followed the single IMDB link (last I looked IMDB is not a reliable source) found that the IMDB page isn't all that built up so I went looking and found NOTHING about the movie. I add sources when I find them, I couldn't find any. Also, if its so notable to Ross Kemp, why is it not mentioned on his page at all? So how about a trout back atcha?

Don't be ridiculous - no-one's talking about taking IMDB as a reliable source. 30 seconds on Google would have told you this was a significant film. (Here's the third of those Ghits, a New York Times feature on the movie, since apparently "not mentioned on American websites" is now a deletion criterion.) — iridescent 18:52, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A movie review by Vince Canby...NYT Film Critic, is hardly a "feature"...I'll add it to the article since you can't seem to be bothered to do so...apparently Trouting someone is now a criteria for posting to AfD. LegoTech·(t)·(c) 21:55, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. As there is just one reliable source cited and it is a minor mention, I am persuaded that the article does not comply with the verifiability policy. Stifle (talk) 19:00, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
