Updates are needed to this page[edit]

Updates are needed to the 2012 series of this page. There was an edition broadcast tonight (March 6 2012) where Arthur Strong thinks that he is in Spain but he is told that he in Greece. He then begins to sing songs from the film musical Grease.

Section on Feedback[edit]

This programme has invited lots of comments on the Radio Four programme Feedback, both praising it and criticising it. It therefore would be quite appropriate if there were a section on reception of the programme in the article. ACEOREVIVED (talk) 19:35, 27 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes it has been criticized for it's lazy theft of the Nellie Pledge character from Nearest and Dearest(on more than one occasion in media reviews), to a degree Mr Bean and yet somehow struggled to 6 series. I'll see if i can find some sources.--MRNasher (talk) 09:05, 23 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Needs to be 'unmerged'[edit]

Hey up! This article needs renaming urgently. The character "Count Arthur Strong" is now the dominant subject - his "Radio Show" may or may not go on, but, due to a recorded television series (yet to be aired) and numerous stage tours, the character himself is potentially now set to become more prominent than a mere project of his, the radio programme. The article should be named "Count Arthur Strong", and if the "Radio Show" is notable enough thereafter, should have it's own article linked from the main article, charting only it's particular place in the Count's history. I am putting this here to try to establish a consensus on agreement, so contributions and ralionales would be gratefully received. Visitors to this Wikipedia page may well find it as skewed as I currently perceive it. Thanks. Ref ^(chew)(do) 11:21, 19 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
