Other work

There is no mention of his role in Dinotopia, a 2002 TV mini-series produced by Hallmark Entertainment. Rocket Surgeon 09:44, 16 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A ballroom?

The article says he owns a Victorian ballroom in Clerkenwell. I figure this must be a British term that I'm unfamiliar with, referring to a particular type of apartment or house, because the only meaning of the word "ballroom" with which I am familiar refers to a room where balls, i.e. dances, formal parties, are held. One does not normally own a ballroom without also owning the hotel, private club, or other establishment it is located in.

Does this term refer to something akin to a studio apartment, but much larger? Or...? LordAmeth (talk) 11:51, 22 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wonder Woman spoiler

I think the references to "Ares" should be removed since it's a plot "twist" not revealed until later in the film. 46.208.85.178 (talk) 13:58, 2 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Harry Potter in summary

He is probably best known as an actor for his portrayal of Remus Lupin in the Harry Potter films.

This is subjective, informal, debatable, and mentioning one film in his lengthy resume is not appropriate for the opening summary. I'm removing it. Feel free to add it back in if you disagree. 72.189.252.84 (talk) 00:37, 17 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I changed the wording to "commercially-successful" because I think that is a more accurate description of a widely popular series like Harry Potter. The Red Queen (talk) 19:53, 30 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Not Involved in the SCA

The citations for David Thewlis' involvement in the Society for Creative Anachronism indicate he helped found the organization in 1965. David Thewlis, the actor, was 2 years old at the time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thisisjon (talk • contribs) 07:17, 30 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
