An editor has updated it to "main role",

Done.Eruditess (talk) 16:56, 25 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Welsh[edit]

Happy to see a source to prove me wrong, but he isn't a "Welsh actor". He was born in Cardiff to English parents, and grew up in England.Gymnophoria (talk) 21:57, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

wives[edit]

I think he had another wife in between the ones mentioned here? 2A01:CB0C:CD:D800:F130:9AFC:1A59:16F9 (talk) 15:50, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Gender identification of children[edit]

As of 2019, his children were reported to be daughters. Are there published reliable sources to indicate that this needs updated? —C.Fred (talk) 14:45, 28 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

He makes a passing reference to "my son" in this BBC-published clip.[1] I hate to say it, but are we sure this refers to one of the three known children? I'm not sure which is the more dangerous speculation from this comment. —C.Fred (talk) 14:50, 28 January 2023 (UTC) revised 14:59, 28 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

On review of a Google search, I am finding enough non-reliable sources that I am inclined to say that in the best interests of privacy, I'm going to agree with the IP and de-gender the references to children. —C.Fred (talk) 14:59, 28 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Better to be safe then sorry,
