Pierrot->Clown[edit]

The Pierrot is billed as simply "The Clown" by the BBC, so for the sake of simplicity and in the hope of consistency across the project I've renamed his section The Clown. --Tony Sidaway 02:50, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

778 references (!)[edit]

This article currently has 778 references, at least 700 of them being primary sources from the episodes, sourced to the exact second. The attention to detail is admirable, but it's enough to just cite the episode in question - we don't need to dump 133k of source minutiae on the reader. --McGeddon (talk) 09:50, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've cut 10k of timestamps, but Reflinks doesn't seem to want to merge them. I'll clean it up with a custom script when I've got a bit more time. --McGeddon (talk) 09:55, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

These have been mostly merged, but a lot of them are now redundant (""Metal" Micky Dillon (Neal Barry)[14] is a burglar[14] with a metal plate in his head.[14] He has five children.[14]") and could use manual cleanup. --McGeddon (talk) 16:12, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Jim Keats[edit]

About an hour after broadcast article now states that Keats kills Viv by squeezing his throat. While he didn't exactly go out of his way to stop Viv dying there is little to suggest he choked him. If you'll watch the episode you will notice the palms of both his hands are against Viv's head, and both thumbs are also visibly nowhere near his throat. As the citation currently only directs you to the episode itself I am removing this on the basis of not enough evidence, at least for the moment. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.149.11.131 (talk) 22:51, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think the implication is very strong that Jim is indeed the devil, in both his mannerism, the general feel of the final episode,a bd the lift he was urging Ray, Chris and Shaz to go on, coming up from below.--Welshsocialist (talk) 21:31, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

He is supposed to be the devil according to this. Police,Mad,Jack (talk · contribs)☺ 21:32, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Matthew Amroliwala[edit]

Not sure how we go about adding this, but in last night's episode the reporter heard reading the news item about the body being found in Lancashire towards the end is Matthew Amroliwala. If my memory serves me correctly (without watching it again) I think Amroliwala can be heard after Keats hands Alex the developed photographs. Does this count him as a character since we have Boy George and Zippy and George added? Bootlegbobby (talk) 13:22, 15 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Long and Francis: recurring or main[edit]

I have created a table on the list of characters page, characterising The characters portrayed by Long and Francis as recurring. I was fascinated as to whether other users had differing ideas?Saxonvsjones (talk) 23:12, 5 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
