Happy to review this.

General

• No dead or dab links.
• No problems with images either, as none are used.
• No issues with the lead, summarises the article well.
• Newspaper sources need locations added. For publications where the location is given, I would advise you to remove them (ie: Cleveland Scene Weekly) for reasons obvious.
• Ref 3 was published on 27 May 2001, in The Independent on Sunday, not The Independent. Be sure to include page numbers when citing newspaper articles without a link; in this case its page number is S6 (it comes from a feature supplement, which page is number six).
• The domain www.independent.co.uk isn't The Independent's publisher, replace with Independent Print Limited.

Career

• Not sure why a semi-colon is used to break up the sentence, "A review of Boulter's performance in The Independent described him as "horribly menacing" in the role;[3] and he received critical reviews in The Herald,[4] and Evening Standard." Either replace it with a comma, or remove 'and' and insert 'also' between 'he' and 'recieved'.
• Careful with overlinking. Ben Whishaw has already been mentioned in the first section, so change the second sentence of the second subsection to "In a 2006 interview, Whishaw identified Boulter as one of his favorite co-stars...". The Daily Telegraph is another one.
• "Boulter guested on a two-part episode...", a tad old fashioned? Consider 'made a guest appearance' or even 'guest starred'.
• Found an interview with Robert on the BBC Press Office site, during his stint on Casualty. It would help beef up the comprehensiveness of this article, given you are quoting direct from the horse's mouth. There should be an interesting quote you can pick up from there.

A nicely written and well organised article. On hold for a week. Lemonade51 (talk) 23:33, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

Thanks very much for the review, will get on to addressing all these helpful suggestions, and respond back here. — Cirt (talk) 02:19, 13 July 2013 (UTC)

Update: Addressed all above helpful suggestions except for the source recommendation. Will get on looking into that recommended source next. — Cirt (talk) 03:20, 13 July 2013 (UTC)

Okay, I've incorporated that additional source, thanks for suggesting it, — Cirt (talk) 18:43, 13 July 2013 (UTC)
