Talk:HolbyBlue

message: Is it worth mentioning that this show is similar to MerseyBeat? (Unsigned -84.66.254.131 8/5/2007)
:I don't know what MerseyBeat is as Ive never seen it, but this is your opinion and is not important for the article. Thanks anyway.Alec1990 20:18, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

message: I'm not quite sure why the article title has been CamelCased. All references by the BBC  and Radio Times  clearly show the title is "Holby Blue"; two entirely separate words. Unless anyone can show me a reason why this error shouldn't be corrected I'll move it and the related 'list of' in the next day or so. --AlisonW (talk) 23:41, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It's not an error at all, it's how the show was originally styled.  Although press packs related to the show's launch are no longer available on the BBC website, the show's official homepage still contains references to it styled as such  and many media outlets continue to refer to it by that name  .

message: Hi
Does anyone know whether Zoe Lucker will reprise her role as Kate Keenan in series 3? As Kate left John in the last episode of series 2, it is unlikely that she will make another appearence. George.millman (talk) 22:44, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

message: Hi
A few months ago you had this statement on this article:
It was confirmed on the 5th April 2008 that a 3rd and 4th series of the show will be produced. It is yet unknown whether the show will continue after that.
If this was the case then WHY THE HELL HAS IT BEEN SCRAPPED! George.millman (talk) 17:50, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

message: I've just seen that this has been nominated for GA and the main contributor is away, so this is poor timing on my part. But I think the lead needs some more work, as there's nothing about the setting, plot, or cast and characters. Readers know how the show was conceived and that it received a mixed reception from critics, but they have no idea what or who it's about. - JuneGloom07  Talk 18:57, 16 August 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi, . When I wrote the lead before nominating this article, I tried to keep the lead as short as possible. If I was to add setting, plot, and cast and characters into the article, would it make the article's lead too long, or not? ElectrodeandtheAnode (talk) 12:24, 2 September 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:  I just remembered HolbyBlue is a good article nominee and found this question from JuneGloom07. I thought I'd add my opinion on it. I think JuneGloom07 has made a good point - the lead should include something on plot, setting and cast and characters. Four paragraphs is the recommened size for a lengthy article so you could add this information to the first paragraph to avoid making the lead too big, while still adding extra information. Hope this helps, Soaper1234 - talk 20:09, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
