 * Comment Paul Rose is also notable for his monthly column in Edge, arguably the most well regarded gaming magazine in Britain. There is absolutely no lack of notable prior work by the creators and both are well known within UK gaming culture. This pilot is no less worthy than any of the others covered on Wikipedia, though it does need some filling out. One of the main cast members is not listed for a start.
 * I have added the other cast member. Russ 19:44, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Since I've just come onto this webpage to find out Biffovision surely it is worth keeping, as its serving its purpose of an encyclopedia article! I'd also say that any program made by the BBC is deserving of a wiki article, considering the show was aired very early in the morning I know of 5 people who stayed up to watch it because they were big fans of what the writers did on digitiser, this surely makes it rather notable. Also I don't understand why it wants people to cite sources for things that happened in the show, surely the source is the 30 mins of television, i'm not really sure how to source tv shows?

Google search for "biffovision" returns 26,500 results, all of these relate to discussion of either the tv show or paul roses blog.
