Q & Q[edit]

Aristides Quarles van Ispen (Erik van 't Wout) and Wilbur Quant (Martin Perels)

  • ... that the actor who played the body in the Dutch television series Q & Q (1974; lead characters pictured) was found murdered in his apartment, in the same position as on the show?

  • Comment: I'm thinking of an alternate hook, about those two teenage actors as sex symbols--well, as teenage heartthrobs, in which case the photo is very appropriate. Funny--they're like twelve, thirteen, and get fanmail and locks of hair. Maybe you have to be Dutch to find that really funny, but it's hilarious.

  • New enough, long enough, and no copyright issues. Article is not written promotionally, and the hook is interesting. Image has a good license for the main page. Good to go. Thine Antique Pen (talk) 13:40, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
  • The more I look at the hook the more I am unhappy with the syntax. Do we have any kick-ass writers/editors around? Drmies (talk) 18:55, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
  • I don't qualify as "kick-ass", but...
ALT2 ... that an actor who played a dead body in the Dutch television series Q & Q was later found in the same position after being murdered in his apartment?
ALT3 ... that the actor who played a dead body which sparked the plot of the Dutch television series Q & Q was later found dead in the same position?
ALT4 ... that an actor known for being a dead body on Q & Q was later found in the same position?
  • I'm gonna go with ALT2--thanks Crisco! Drmies (talk) 02:51, 14 November 2012 (UTC)
