smiley - laugh wondered what you were going to say about him after Ant and Dec.

I'll have a read over, but I'm unsure about having a very short sentence like that at the beginning before a header. It just doesn't look right. smiley - erm

I hope I didn't bog you down with too many changes to make.

PS. noticed that the sub-editor of Nick Park appears to have elvised smiley - sadface

OK I tweaked it a little more, adding a couple of comments about his method acting, which a friend suggested would help finish the article, I hope you don't mind smiley - smiley

smiley - tea
I'm glad you found the Superman entries interesting, and especially the Superman curse, which could equally apply to Mr Brandosmiley - winkeye

smiley - tea

Aha, thanks for the further info, the sub is Atlantic_Cable, who is still a sub-ed (you can see the recent entries listed on his PS) even though he doesn't post. We all have our different ways, it's my personal preference to contact authors to discuss things which crop up during subbing and by no means a rule.

Hello again Opti, sorry to be a pain but on final read-through I wasn't happy with the family section, and I've rewritten it so the two family deaths weren't in a footnote. It's all harrowing stuff smiley - sadface but important to mention in his storysmiley - 2cents

If you'll just OK it I'll return it to Eds, thanks Opti smiley - smiley

I think what happened between his children did not help matters. I know how parents stress over their children. So it makes sense for it to be out of a footnote.

I'm smiley - smiley for you to return it to the Eds.
