Martine McCutcheon[edit]

Hi. To avoid edit warrings I'd like to discuss with you a couple of matters.

"Whilst still in EastEnders, McCutcheon appeared in her first pantomime, playing the title role in Cinderella, at the Marlowe Theatre in Canterbury, Kent." - this should be brought back. I read her biography and this is the only mention of pantomime. You could perhaps add a sentence stating that since appearing in cinderella she appeared in many other pantomimes but you'd have to find a reference first.
the information that she was offered eastenders part when she worked at knickerbox could also be brought back with this (https://quidsinmagazine.com/martine-mccutcheon/) citation.
"In reality, McCutcheon had decided to leave the soap in order to embark on a pop career" - really don't understand why you've removed that part as the citation I have provided backs up this information. it says: "She claimed to have been killed off as punishment for requesting time away to launch a music career, and that she only found out about her character's death in a tabloid newspaper ("Tiff's a Stiff" ran the headline)."

Hope to hear back from you soon. ArturSik (talk) 14:45, 25 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thanks for this, much better way!

Really dont the first pantomime is relevant at all imho, or even interesting?

in that case it needs new citation, where it explicitly states she regularly appears in pantomimes. ArturSik (talk) 15:38, 25 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Knickerbox not a good source as im sure you already know, and again, its not really relevant at all imho?

fair enough... ArturSik (talk) 15:38, 25 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Again, no really good source for this at all is there? She only stated it after the event, and then only in gossip mags, therefore I dont should be included at all?

...however, her reasons behind her wanting to leave the show should most definitely be included simply for clarity. it says she disagreed with the decision to kill of the character as she intended to return but it doesn't say why she left in the first place + Telegraph is a really good source used in GA and FA.
