Happy to review this. At first glance this seems to meet the GA requirements. I will do full review as soon as possible. Edwininlondon (talk) 12:38, 7 January 2022 (UTC) Some general comments:

• sci-fi fans." should be sci-fi fans". as per MOS:INOROUT
• Pearce spent five years working at the Vervet Monkey Foundation --> perhaps add in which country this is
• The text says she was born in Woking, Surrey, but the infobox has Byfleet
  • Amended to Byfleet in text (with source added). BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 18:10, 10 January 2022 (UTC)

• in the Filmography there is another case of Blakes 7

I'll look at the sources tomorrow. Edwininlondon (talk) 23:15, 7 January 2022 (UTC)

Sources:

• Quotations always need a source, even in the lead, so "a sexual awakening for a generation of sci-fi fans."[9]
• Sources all appear reliable
• Muir, John Kenneth, A History and Critical Analysis of Blake's 7, the 1978–1981 British Television Space Adventure --> is this a book? article?
  • A Book - added some details. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 18:10, 10 January 2022 (UTC)
• Carter, Meg. "Return of '70s Seven". The Times. p. 36. --> date?
• 33 needs a publisher, isbn and a page number for the quote, and 34 is the same?

Amended. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 23:37, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

• 32 is the Times obit again, same as 9
• source 11 needs page numbers
• 21 the text actually says "exploit" and not "flaunt [their] femininity"
• 25 does back up the Dr Who claims but not "As well as appearing in the BBC children's programmes Dark Season (alongside Kate Winslet) and Moondial, "
• In the filmography it says "1964 A Question of Happiness Frances 2 episodes: "Fred" and "Watch me I'm a bird" but source 5 says Fred Frances 1964.
• Spotcheck: 1 2 24 36 39 all fine

The other criteria all appear to be met. Edwininlondon (talk) 11:10, 8 January 2022 (UTC)

Many thanks, Edwininlondon. Hopefully I've covered off everything from your review. Let me know if anything else is required. Regards, BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 23:37, 14 January 2022 (UTC)
