Stinker edit

Latest comment: 4 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I remember this show. It was a real stinker (I remember one chaotic edition from the Edinburgh Festival) but surely that's no reason to delete the article. Nor to overtag it. It was on British network tv (ie broadcast across the country and as the record shows, in Ireland as well) and the only series ran for weeks. That's pretty notable.

I have access to the British Library's "British Newspaper Archive" so I just did a search for the series - and found a neutral description which looks (from the number of local papers it appears in) to have come originally from a press release. I've added that description to the head of the article.

But that's all I found: one neutral description and no positive reviews or comments whatsoever (and the BNA has a lot of newspapers digitised). So I don't think it is going to be possible to come up with an article with an equal number of positive and negative comments, at least not verifiably. Actually the only new description I found (of a different edition of the show) is equally negative, now added in as well.

I will remove all three tags, on the basis that after a good search I can find no evidence to support any of them (the show was dreadful so it is not surprising that this is what the record and therefore the article reflects):--

>>This article may lend undue weight to certain ideas, incidents, or controversies. (June 2019)

>>The neutrality of this article is disputed. (June 2019)

>>The examples and perspective in this article may not include all significant viewpoints. (June 2019)
