Talk:Richard Griffiths

message: I think his filmography is incomplete, with only his most noteable roles shown. I think I'll get to work on it. Lradrama 16:01, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

message: The information in this section seems just trivia, not 'controversy' ("disagreement, typically when long, public, and heated"). It seems many editors like uncovering a sense of controversy or creating one where none exists. This unfortunate character is becoming endemic in Wikipedia. I've chosen not to re-title that section without first some discussion here - lest that action cause true controversy. 81.156.252.49 (talk) 09:36, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

message: Sorry, but the job description of "bagger", in the sense of a supermarket bagger, did not exist in Thornaby in 1947.  The one source, Griffiths' bio at FilmReference, has to be suspect here.  Maybe a mistype of "baker"?  Maybe a prank?  There was a flour mill in Thornaby: maybe she bagged flour there.  There were all kinds of odd little industries you don't see anymore back then.Djdaedalus (talk) 17:31, 19 September 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: thought so, too. But the mother was deaf, could that be beggar? Were there beggers in the streets in those times? On another front, I once read he was raised/babysitted by a French woman who lived in the back of the house. Therefore his first language was French. That's how I remember it. I liked the Pie in the Sky series. 144.136.192.55 (talk) 01:07, 30 March 2013 (UTC)

message: Richard Griffiths did not play Falstaff for the Royal Shakespeare Company (though he probably would have done if he had stayed with them longer).  He played Falstaff in "The Merry Wives of Windsor" for the BBC Shakespeare, and in both parts of "Henry IV" for the Arkangel Complete Shakespeare audio recording.  I do not at present have the time or resources to confirm this, partly because the RSC's online archive of productions disappeared some time ago (unless anyone can direct me to a new location for it).

message: This picture of Richard Griffiths does not show most of his face properly. I couldn't even recognise him. It only makes sense to have a clear image of someone's face for their article. It also would be a bit more respectful. We could find another one since there would be many.FrequencyComb (talk) 21:06, 5 April 2019 (UTC)

message: Anonymous user:14.139.160.231 has committed vandalism and deleted a complete subsection about his early years. I seem to be unable to repair the damage because a certain link seems to be "blacklisted" and I can't ascertain which.... The article must be repaired somehow but I'm clueless about how to do it... Please can someone help me? -- fdewaele, 30 October 2019 19:00 CET.
:Done. Thanks for the heads up. I had to delete a reference with a URL to the site filmreference DOT com. Esowteric+Talk 18:24, 30 October 2019 (UTC)
