Future[edit]

The first sentence of the article mentions that Branning is an "upcoming" character - therefore, it's a future event, and the {{future}} tag is appropriate prior to airing. Has this character already appeared onscreen? B.Wind 18:46, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No, but the tag suggests that the article is a rumour, which it is not, and I don't believe that the information provided is likely to "dramatically change", as mentioned in said tag. I don't believe this to be the appropriate tag for theses articles. Trampikey 18:48, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • It says it may contain rumour, but more importantly, it emphasizes that it is a future event that is subject to change. There has been ample precedent of television casting changes - and entire episode deletions - prior to scheduled broadcast. For that reason, the {{future}} tag is most appropriate. If all go to plan, these will be rendered moot soon enough. B.Wind 18:54, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The episode in which this certain character first appears has been filmed and is ready to be shown on 27 June 2006. It is not subject to change, it is not a rumour, it is confirmed by the BBC site, therefore the tag is not needed. Trampikey 18:57, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Then I'd recommend updating the articles to reflect that status. This will make things much smoother for the articles... and you. Put in the scheduled "arrival date," just to clinch it. Two weeks will pass very quickly. B.Wind 19:15, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

So is he dead? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Turquoise Thunder (talk • contribs) 01:11, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wood's paternity leave[edit]

He said on This Morning that he was on maternity leave at the moment. -Trampikey(talk)(contribs) 23:15, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Pics[edit]

Hi, I was looking at Max Branning's wikipedia profile and thought it looked bare. I was wondering if anyone had any images that they could upload onto his profile to highlight some of his classic moments, such as his affair with Stacey or his hit-and-run. Unfortunately I don't personally have any images or I would have them uploaded, so I just wondered if anyone else does and if they do could they please upload them.

List as departing or not?[edit]

Jake Wood is leaving for a year. We know he's returning, but it's not what I'd necessarily consider a temporary break, where actors just disappear for a couple of months. He's leaving, but has signed a contract for his return. So should we list him as departing now? If not, should we avoid listing him as returning? I think in this case we should list him as departing and returning, rather than present throughout. He actually leaving the cast, and won't be employed during that year. It's not like annual or maternity leave. –anemoneprojectors– 15:18, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

He can't be returning until he has departed! So, not both. Stephenb (Talk) 15:48, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I didn't mean departing and returning at the same time, I meant "departing and then returning", i.e. departing now, but change to returning after he's departed. So, either he's departing now and [then] returning after he's departed, or he's present now and still present after he's departed. –anemoneprojectors– 16:10, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I think this is another in-universe/real-world question. In the real world, he would still be considered a cast member, as we know he is still contracted to the show. In-universe, the character has departed, but will be returning! Same for Kat and Alfie. Difficult! :) Stephenb (Talk) 16:52, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Well then maybe we'll just treat it as we do any other announced temporary departure and leave him as present, as we have done for Kat and Alfie (I hope) and have always done for other actors/characters that take a break. –anemoneprojectors– 16:54, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
His original contract has ended, his new contract begins next October. So basically he isn't even contracted to the show at the moment. — RachelRice (talk, contribs) — 18:13, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Let's be accurate: he is contracted to the show, just not for a period until next year. Saying "isn't even contracted at the moment" might imply there is no contract at all. Stephenb (Talk) 20:23, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Well yes, but Wikipedia deals with the present, not the future. — RachelRice (talk, contribs) — 06:14, 1 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
He has signed a contract though, so the signature is current. The contract says he returns to his employment in 2016, but he's contracted to that right now. I'm sure Shane Richie and Jessie Wallace must have done the same thing. –anemoneprojectors– 07:14, 1 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Should we list Sean O'Connor as an introducer?[edit]

The note that was added saying "one year breaks are not counted" is wrong, as the length of break doesn't matter. It depends on the type of break. If Wood had decided to quit for good under one producer and left, and then the next producer wanted him back and convinced him to return straight away, even if the break was only 3 months, we'd list both - as we have done for Ryan Malloy (whoever changed it there for the same reason, I changed it back as that was clearly wrong). However, in this case, it's not as clear, as Wood signed a contract to return in 2016, which was done by Treadwell-Collins, and then he returned as a one-off under Treadwell-Collins... and then left again, and has returned to filming later than expected (so may have had the contract changed??). So, should we list O'Connor or not? anemoneprojectors 12:08, 14 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

How do we know he returned to filming later than expected? Just because someone saw him filming on 30 October doesn't mean that was his first day back to work. For all we know, he might have been filming from the start of September. SamLaws81101 (talk) 20:48, 14 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I think he would have appeared on screen by now but that's not the point of the discussion. Should we list Sean O'Connor as an introducer or not? anemoneprojectors 10:25, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I think we should. He's been away for ages and Sean O'Connor's episodes have been airing for a while now and he's basically being reintroduced. SamLaws81101 (talk) 19:21, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

If it were maternity leave and someone left under one producer and returned under another, what would we do then? I suppose whatever we do here, we should also do for Cora. anemoneprojectors 19:42, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
