Talk:Terence Stamp

Biography
What the hell is that comment about a sexual relation with a nurse doing here??? even with a citation it would be completely irrelevant. This is an encyclopedia for christ sake !!!

I've made various small changes to Terence's biography, including the correction of films names and minor punctuation errors, adding dates for most of his films, and added his current projects. -- BBlackmoor (talk) 02:19, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

Hey, I had no idea that he was offered Alfie. Neat. Good edit! -- BBlackmoor (talk) 20:06, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

"Starred as 'General Zod' in the Bright Eyes video? Who's General Zod?

Terrence Stamp Voice =Godness!!!! General Zod is from Superman. Stamp did the voice of him in the original movies.

Hello I added some  information in regards to  the correct name of Terrence Stamps now ex  wife  Tracey, however it has been erased. by ariel gold —Preceding unsigned comment added by Notcraaw (talk • contribs) 23:59, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Nothing in this article about his wheat/dairy intolerance, and how it led to him setting up a food company "The Stamp Collection" I think it was called. See http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2001/dec/20/healthandwellbeing.health for a random example of what's missing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.176.222.97 (talk) 15:47, 27 April 2013 (UTC)

Kids
Stamp doesn't have any kids, does he? Son of Kong —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Son of Kong (talk • contribs) 04:16, 7 December 2006 (UTC).

The Wiki entry for Joanna Pettet states that her only son was fathered by Stamp. I cannot get to the cited reference. Cross Reference (talk) 20:35, 15 March 2018 (UTC)
 * While he may be the biological father-I don't know if she ever has said who the dad is, but that book is completely unreliable, and Joanna herself has asked on her official site for people to avoid it, as she never spoke to him and it is full of falsehoods. Tate's sister Debra has said much the same thing - seems to be a tattle-tale gossip and rumors tome set up to sell books rather than report facts.50.111.2.6 (talk) 00:32, 5 May 2019 (UTC)

Year of Birth
IMDb claims he was born in July 22, 1938

Who is right? | Ateo (talk) 17:05, 22 May 2008 (UTC)


 * 1938 is correct. This is according to the England and Wales birth index. Crisso (talk) 12:26, 15 February 2011 (UTC)

Appearances in Smallville
Stamp did appear in Smallville as Jor-El but I'm not so sure about the part saying that he also reprised his role as Zod. That barely recognizable split second appearance was done using CG and was most likely accomplished without the need for the actor's participation.Mr. ATOZ (talk) 14:56, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Academy award appearing in the lead
I removed an erroneous 'won an academy award' in the lead, but the edit summary cut off my sourcing: http://awardsdatabase.oscars.org/ampas_awards/DisplayMain.jsp?curTime=1279062887611. He was only nominated for it, Ed Begley won it that year. Syrthiss (talk) 14:19, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

Add to Filmography - "Blue" c.1968
One of my favorite movies as a child, Terence Stamp in "Blue" c.1968. He played lead as Azul; also starred Joanna Pettet, Karl Malden. Released on DVD in 2005, available on Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/Blue-Terence-Stamp/dp/B0007Y08KG — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bibot60423 (talk • contribs) 04:49, 23 August 2013 (UTC)

chloroform pad?
Mentioned regarding the What Difference Does it Make photo. Is that a sponge for cleaning dishes? Never heard the term before. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.23.60.245 (talk) 11:52, 23 January 2014 (UTC)

Waterloo Sunset 'Terry and Julie'
By the Kinks is generally held to refer to Terence Stamp and Julie Christie, but I can't find a good reference.

Denied by the song's writer, Ray Davies. See Waterloo Sunset. LenF54 (talk) 18:47, 22 February 2019 (UTC)

Controversy - reverted change
I included a section "Controversy" in this edit, describing how Stamp, aged 60, stated that he had a crush on Natalie Portman, who was under 18 at the time, which was the sole reason he accepted his role in Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. I included sufficient citation for my edit. My edit was reverted, without reason, by and I would like to know why. Sideriver84 (talk) 05:13, 28 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Sideriver84, since your question is for one editor I suggest you ask that editor on his or her talk page here. I do agree that the user should have explained the edit. LenF54 (talk) 13:09, 28 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Hi LenF54, I did consider their talk page. However, I understand that in the event that a disagreement comes to a standstill and a third party is required to mediate, the issue must have been thoroughly discussed on the article's talk page. Sideriver84 (talk) 02:37, 29 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Hi Sideriver84, my apologies - I thought I did leave a summary but obviously not - I absolutely should have made sure to explain the edit properly. The section you added "Controversy" was a major revision to the page, not a minor one, and because the page is a Biography of a living person (and also because of wikipedia standards) there is a high threshold for sources and information for anything that could be controversial. Please see Wikipedia's Biographies of living persons page. The Indiewire source you used does not meet these requirements for considering how definitive your edit was, the accusations are directly contradicted by the primary source (The BBC interview in question), and there's no record of either of the involved parties (Portman and Stamp) being asked about or addressing this controversy. It is a big step for a biographical page to claim: a controversy exists; that the parties involved aren't aware of (on the public record); based on some tabloid reporting - without some very strong, verified, and supported sources. If you have stronger verified sources and wish to add lines to the personal section referencing this interview in context I see no issue, but the wording has to be accurate and in line with what can be proven.
 * understood, thanks. Sideriver84 (talk) 02:58, 30 August 2021 (UTC)

Wrong wikilink target?
This sentence: "His 29-year-old bride was Elizabeth O'Rourke, whom Stamp first met in the mid-1990s at a chemists in Bondi, New South Wales" has "chemists" wikilinked. From reading this, I think the location was what we, in the US, call a pharmacy -- "at a chemists" is UK/Australia/former British Empire lingo. The linked article is for a different kind of "chemist" so I think the wikilink is wrong. Does anyone agree or disagree? 71.228.112.175 (talk) 09:33, 2 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Even allowing for you being American, Stamp being English and meeting O'Rourke in Australia, and your offensive assertion that common British English is "British Empire lingo" (we refer to the large high street chain as "Boots the Chemists"), I agree the wikilink is wrong and suggest it be changed to pharmacist. If no-one dissents, I will change this on 11/07, ie after one week. LenF54 (talk) 16:45, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
 * No, I will link to Pharmacy (shop). LenF54 (talk) 15:57, 6 July 2022 (UTC)
