Shall review this one.


 * General
 * A few dead links.
 * One dab link which needs addressing.
 * No problems with images either, as none are used.
 * Newspaper sources need locations added. For publications where the location is given, I would advise you to remove them (ie: Cleveland Scene Weekly) for reasons obvious.
 * Domains are not the same as publishers.


 * Lead
 * "From 1993 to 1999, Breckin attended classes at the Roundhay School, and received GCE Advanced Level qualification in the field of drama.", although this is the qualification's correct title, I would suggest you use its colloquial name, amongst students, teachers and publication style guides in Britain – the A-Level. So the sentence would become '...recieved an A-Level in drama'.
 * "Breckin had a recurring role as Deena Hardman on the 2012 television series Hollyoaks.", Hollyoaks is a recurring soap drama in Britain. How the sentence is worded may give the impression that it was a one-off series, first shown in 2012. You need to reword this, to state Breckin appeared in Hollyoaks in 2012.


 * Career
 * Sky News is not italicised.
 * Is it "Breckin guest-starred opposite series regular" "Breckin guest starred on the television drama..." -- hyphenated or not?

Shall pass once comments have been addressed. On hold until then. Lemonade51 (talk) 21:58, 16 July 2013 (UTC)
