Born in 1980
[edit]I've always seen 1981 given as his birth year, but I saw him interviewed on the Paul O'Grady show on Monday, during which he mentioned that he was 26. Does anyone know of any other sources that can verify 1980? Crisso 17:06, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
- I went to school with him. In 1992 we both had parts in a school play at Bolton School which means that assuming the day and month of his birthday (February) is correct, he would have had to have been born in 1980 I believe, otherwise he would not have been at the school when the play was cast in the summer term of 1992, as rehersals ran for quite a few months. Being born in 1981 would have meant that he would have been joining the school as a first year in September 1992, meaking it impossible for him to be in that play. I still have the jumper that has the date of the performance as 1992 in its logo that confirms the play as having taken place that year. --jek 20:40, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
Does referencing the England & Wales Birth index not constitute original research? (Bagofants (talk) 20:48, 23 January 2008 (UTC))
- No, because anyone else can verify it if they wish. It's a public record. --Rodhullandemu (Talk) 20:52, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

Full name
[edit]There is substantial evidence that the previously listed full name, 'Ralf Alastair J. B. Little', is in fact correct: there is a birth record for a Ralf Alastair J. B. Little, born 1980 in Oldham, Lancashire, visible on, for example, findmypast.co.uk free of charge; here, in an interview, Ralf himself gives his name as 'Ralf Alastair John Little' (http://www.theguardian.com/media/2000/jun/20/tvandradio.television2); here he is listed as director of various production company-type setups: http://companycheck.co.uk/director/908740187/MR-RALF-ALASTAIR-JOHN-LITTLE. The interview alone ought to suffice as a source for the name 'Ralf Alastair John Little', leaving aside the birth record, which some do not favour. Given that his mother's surname is 'Bailey', and his sister and brother have the same initial B before their surname, it would be fairly safe to assume that this is what it stands for (but, given this is original research, presumably cannot be employed here). At the very least, given that he states directly that his name is 'Ralf Alastair John Little', this should be taken to be his name for this page's purposes, notwithstanding the final B and the likely meaning thereof.

Personal Life
[edit]I noticed that the line about Ralf's engagement with playwright Lindsey Ferrentino has been messed with a lot lately. It's changed from "has been" to "was" to the whole line being deleted. But, I don't think that info about their relationship in the Hello magazine article is reliable anymore. Biccywiccy (talk) 00:30, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
- do you know it is visible that you are the one doing all the changes? you didn't 'notice' it... when you are the one doing the changing? suspicious determination to change something unsourced
- flagging biccywiccy account to moderators. Cuppatea1991 (talk) 21:07, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
- {{Vandal<nowiki>|biccywiccy}} repeatedly vandalised the biography of living persons (BLP) actor Ralf Little without source, more than six times. And then started talk conversation drawing attention to the page being changed without acknowledgment that user biccywiccy changed the page. Information repeatedly inserted without source.
