 * Delete I see no reason to keep an unsourced BLP.--Jeffrd10 (talk) 15:07, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep Substantial roles including 105 episodes of Coronation Street as Keith Appleyard; co-wrote and starred in A Dish of Tea With Doctor Johnson which received many favourable reviews in British press; in EastEnders as Ken Raynor; major role in Moon and Son; acclaimed performance as Creon in Antigone; other roles in older shows e.g. starring in Bread or Blood (1981) which doesn't have a wikipedia page but is probably notable In other words, meets WP:NACTOR #1. Amazing what you can learn from a simple web search! --Colapeninsula (talk) 16:37, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep: There is something of a promotional tone here, and I have adjusted down the award nomination to a specific referenced item, but that is a matter for normal editing; basically enough here in the subject's career and the available references to indicate notability.

 * Keep per Colapeninsula and WP:HEY; however, we still have to get rid of the hyperbole, including the entertaining but presumably unprovable claim that he has appeared in "every theatre in England". --Arxiloxos (talk) 23:08, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
