Initial comments
This looks like a GA-level article, I'm not sure that I'm going to accept the Info box with "Years active 1979–2004"; and I was going to make comments about the WP:Lead but you changed it whilst I was looking elsewhere (I have two Firefox Wikipedia Tabs open). I will now start reviewing the article in more depth section by section, but leaving the WP:Lead until last. Pyrotec (talk) 16:29, 30 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I didn't expect it to be reviewed so quickly but obviously we have a Lancastrian in our midst :) I've just tidied up the Filmography section, and the statue part.  I have a better photograph of his house and back yard to add, which I took just today.  I also have a [when?] to resolve, that shouldn't take long. Parrot of Doom 16:38, 30 October 2009 (UTC)

I have reviewed this nomination in some depth and have made a couple of "minor" copyedits - I've moved the MBE out of "filming" and the two honourary PhDs out of "Legacy" into a new subsection called "Honours" - I hope this has not distorted the flow. I think its an improvement, but this is not an mandatory requirement for GA-status. Pyrotec (talk) 12:35, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
