I am seriously struggling to see how "Jilted John" is in any way akin to "Up the Junction" by Squeeze! "Up the Junction" is much slower, more melodic, and makes a significant use of keyboards. "Jilted John" is much faster, the majority is played in 1 or 2 chords, only features guitar/bass/drums, and the lyrics are far simpler. "Jilted John" is also quite clearly NOT sung out of tune. Singing with a heavy accent is not the same as singing out of tune. 85.210.151.215 (talk) 12:44, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

Why is there no mention of Some boys by "Going Red". This was by him, wasn't it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.181.113.57 (talk) 19:03, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Look a bit more closely. It already is mentioned. --  Dr Greg   talk  20:12, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

Appearances
"making him the only actor to appear in the soap opera after having a hit single, while many others have used their appearances in the programme as a springboard to a pop career."

I'm not an expert, but some tall lad from one of the chart-topping boy bands has been in it, I'm sure. qp10qp 23:57, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

Personal section
I think there should be one.

For instance his sister, Clare, is married to TV Chef Ainsley Harriott. She is a former costume designer. Picture of the couple. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.142.68.26 (talk) 17:04, 3 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Agreed.

E.g. his four children, presumably, have names, sexes (one each, of course), mother(s) - you can't get much more 'Personal' than the mother(s) of your children.

Graham Fellows albums
I see that Weird Town has now been released, and Love at the Hacienda has been (re?)-released. Should these two be added into the article as official music releases? I'm not familiar with the protocol for discographies, etc, esp. with someone like this who has multiple identities. Could someone more familiar with the article update it appropriately? Thanks!

 * Thanks, User:Martinevans123 for doing that update. Walkerma (talk) 04:20, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
 * No worries. It might be better to put all of the discography together and split by identity, as with e.g. Shane Fenton/Alvin Stardust? Martinevans123 (talk) 08:53, 18 March 2018 (UTC)

Gordon is not a moron
Could this article mention how some one (other than Graham Fellows) did a follow-up to Jilted John called "Gordon is not a moron"? Vorbee (talk) 11:46, 17 March 2018 (UTC)
 * It could if you have a reliable source for that and wish to add it to the article. Qwfp (talk) 12:26, 17 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Fellows himself didn't do one. You think someone else did? Martinevans123 (talk) 08:55, 18 March 2018 (UTC)

Yes, it was a couple known as Gordon and Julie. I have heard that when the original Jilted John (a.k.a. Graham Fellows) found out about this couple doing this song, he sued them for pinching his idea! The song "Gordon is Not A Moron" failed to chart, though, so may not be notable enough to be mentioned in the article. Vorbee (talk) 17:49, 15 September 2018 (UTC)

40th anniversary tour
This article says that in October 2018, "Jilted John will embark on a 40th anniversary tour of the U.K.". Since October 2018 is in the past now, should the tense now be changed to past tense? Vorbee (talk) 18:18, 20 February 2019 (UTC)
