  • ... that by devising the Fairfield Experiment in industrial relations, Iain Maxwell Stewart inspired The Bowler and the Bunnet, Sean Connery's sole film as a director? Source: From Scottish Review, Galbraith: "Connery, aged 37, chose Glasgow to fulfil a long-held ambition – to step back from his usual role in front of camera and direct his own movie, a documentary about the woeful state of industrial relations in Britain, centred on Clydeside, with the colourful title, The Bowler and the Bunnet. The subject, as developed by Connery, embraced the ill-fated Fairfield experiment, brainchild of the Scottish industrialist, Sir Iain Stewart, who believed passionately in the idea that all sides of industry were mutually dependent."

Overall: Thank you for this useful article about an industrialist and industrial relations. Earwig picks up some phrases, but they are job titles, so that's OK. Just one point:

  • The last sentence in the Background section is not cited.

Note: I have Wikified the article into sections, so as to maintain the content in its present order, when future editors add more information. That does not affect DYK. You are welcome to adjust the sections as necessary.

When the missing citation is added, this nom should be good to go. Storye book (talk) 17:20, 19 April 2022 (UTC)

I have added a citation (reusing one from the Thermotank article) for the final sentence in the Background section. Paul W (talk) 20:28, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
  • @Paul W and Storye book: I was going to promote this, but the article does not mention that The Bowler and the Bunnet was Connery's only directorial movie. Should that information be added to the article (recommended) or removed from the hook? Z1720 (talk) 01:07, 21 April 2022 (UTC)
