Dates of first marriage
The box says his first marriage (to Josephine Tewson) ended in 1961; the text says that in 1962 he was still married to her. Which is right? PrivateSponge (talk) 10:23, 20 September 2009 (UTC)

A word of caution
Concerning recent additions, while there are not the same standards as with a living person, it does not mean people have carte blanche to include every bit of gossip that crops up.

A lot of names are being bandied about in the wake of the Jimmy Savile scandal, as is always the way with such high-profile cases, and we should be extremely wary of reproducing rumours here (even on talk pages).

I can think of few things to accuse somebody of worse than has been suggested by one editor here, and I'd suggest it would take a lot more than an anonymous source in the Sun to include it. If something comes of it, things may change, but if it remains as an isolated and unsubstantiated rumour it would set a very bad precedent to include it.

Whatever your views, please discuss contentious edits on talk first. BearAllen (talk) 10:22, 14 November 2012 (UTC)

Entry into film
It isn’t true that he "broke into film roles with Billy Liar” since he was in two prior films, including a more than trivial part in This Sporting Life. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.46.211.151 (talk) 01:00, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
