[edit]Didn't he also appear in a BBC show called "Something for the Weekend" or "Up to Something" around 1990, before he got involved with Ianucci? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.75.92.239 (talk) 12:32, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
"Up to Something" I think, and yes it would have been in 1990. It was on BBC 1 - selection of sketches, fairly mundane, although Schneider was rather amusing as the very unconvincing novelty act "Zero Talent" ("Zero Talent & His Amazing Walking Feet" - he basically walked around, pointed at his feet and cheered himself....Well, I thought it was funny anyway!)StanPomeray (talk) 15:41, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
Play
[edit]"He is currently writing a play based on the slaughter of the Moscow State Jewish Theater on the orders of Joseph Stalin."
He's writing a play on the orders of Stalin?padddy5 (talk) 10:56, 1 October 2009 (UTC) Someone definitely has to change that because it looks like Stalin has returned from the grave and is now ordering around actors, does his tyranny ever end?~~ —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.43.56.84 (talk) 19:42, 22 March 2010 (UTC)
Scheider played Joseph Goebbels in Churchill: The Hollywood Years in 2004. I added this in just now, as there was no mention of it in his filmography. I must admit that I found the irony of him playing a nazi to be very funny. Zolstijers
There's no mention of this individuals super injunction to quash mention of his sexual proclivities, although those may be private is the superinjunction applicable to wikipedia? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.156.51.52 (talk) 23:01, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
- This would have to wait for reliable sourcing, as it would be potentially libellous if it turned out to be wrong. As you point out, his private life is not that interesting per WP:BLP anyway.--♦IanMacM♦ (talk to me) 05:07, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
- Yes, even if it is actally true, I don't think it's worth mentioning here. Superinjunctions don't stop Wikipedia from adding details, but they do mean there are no reliable sources, which is what stops Wikipedia from adding details. –anemoneprojectors– 09:58, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
Marital status
[edit]The statement that he "is married to Emma Perry, an ex-model and current pottery artist" was tagged as citation needed, but changing it to "single" in this edit without a cite is also a problem. There appear to be no reliable sources on this issue, and Schneider's website does not say whether he is married. Because of this, his marital status is best left blank unless it can be sourced.--♦IanMacM♦ (talk to me) 05:27, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
Layout
[edit]I don't know that the bullet point layout for Mr. Schneider's career is standard on Wikipedia so I will look at changing that in due course. Knucmo2 (talk) 17:07, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
"Can be found using his political views on Twitter"
[edit]To give some context, Schneider has around 540,000 followers on Twitter and regularly tweets criticisms of the UK Government. Is this necessarily of note? Plenty of comedians and other notable people use Twitter to discuss their political views. Bonoahx (talk) 21:13, 4 January 2022 (UTC)
- Presumably not a huge amount of traffic on this talk page so will remove it for now. Bonoahx (talk) 21:55, 5 January 2022 (UTC)
