 * Symbol confirmed.svg Date, length OK. Article well cited, with a citation following the hook.  I like the original hook, provided that it does not breach any WP rules about colourful language.  The comment certainly sounds typical of what we know about Malcolm Arnold! --Peter I. Vardy (talk) 15:35, 11 October 2012 (UTC)
