 * Delete. I cannot find a single source online about this, from the BBC, on archive.org, or otherwise, which is odd as the main significance of it seems to be that it was the first BBC Digital Commission. I wonder if this article is pure fabrication, or if information about the show has just been lost to time (or if anyone can dig up a source on it). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Quuxbazbarfoo (talk • contribs) 17:18, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete Great piece of creative writing. Zero available evidence this series even existed; all indicators point towards the article creator and main contributing editor being on some sort of hoax. (for reference - see the first ever edit by the creator of this article ; the plot itself appears - erm - far fetched unless as a surreal comedy - NOTHERE may well apply).

 * Delete I think we've got a new one for the WP:HOAXLIST for sure, so 'congratulations' to for getting this just short of the eighteen-year mark AND somehow not getting immediately blocked.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 23:20, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete Congratulations to on spotting this. It's actually incredible how many articles have been around 10-20 years with zero sources, particularly in the radio topic area. There's a lot of cleaning up to do to. Congratulations also to the creator for managing to create a hoax unnoticed for going on two decades. AusLondonder (talk) 04:35, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
 * What amazes me so much is that, looking at the page history, it was visited and touched by so many experienced users, and yet none of them caught on. Serious props to the guy, who created a hoax so believable that even well-known users missed it. Personhumanperson (talk) 18:34, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
 * All editors really need to be much more alert and active regarding wholly unsourced articles. It's damaging to our credibility as an encyclopedia. AusLondonder (talk) 04:47, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete Nothing Online. Wow, a Hoax! 🍪 Cookie  Monster  04:36, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete: if the series had been broadcast on BBC Radio 4 or BBC 7 (now BBC Radio 4 Extra) it would have an entry in the BBC Genome Project, and it doesn't. :Flip Format (talk) 11:28, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete - No sources and poorly written. It doesn't even mention dates as to when it was ran, even if it is real. But this whole thing could be hoax. Perfectstrangerz (talk) 01:38, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Comment Wonder if creator's name is a reference to Richard Pigott, an Irish journalist known for creating a forgery... AusLondonder (talk) 04:10, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Comment Does this qualify for G3? 🍪 Cookie  Monster  11:42, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete. Wikidata item doesn't contain anything meaningful too. Killarnee (talk) 19:22, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
