Hey, I'm going to be reviewing this article. Expect comments by the end of the week. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 11:45, 5 April 2021 (UTC)

Infobox and lead

• Instead of using "DISPLAYTITLE", might I suggest using an italic dab? Done
• With that in mind, the infobox and image's non-free use rationale looks good.
• "break down" → "breakdown" Done
• "wont they" → "won't they" (both uses) Done

Casting

• This section looks good.

Development

• Here and in other sections, each sentence with a quote needs a source per WP:QUOTE. Done
• Won't tackle serial commas in this review per WP:ENGVAR.
• "move the United States" → "move to the United States" Done
• "take Peter into work" → "take Peter to work" Done
• "Andrew was killed-off" → "Andrew was killed off" Done
• Add a comma between "She explained 'Duffy'". Done
• "return as traditional return" doesn't sound right. Done
• Same issue with "locations spots". Done
• "heart-attack" → "heart attack" Done
• Add a comma after "Upon her return". Done
• Remove the comma after "midwife". Done
• "shared fifteen year" → "shared a fifteen-year" Done
• "thirty year love story" → "thirty-year love story" Done
• The phrase "stag do took place" doesn't sound right either. Done
• In #Depression_and_dementia, add a comma after "as a result". Done

Reception

• This section looks good.

References

• Archive sources.  Done
• Daily Express isn't reliable per Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources#Daily Express. Hidden the two refs, so we have an opportunity to replace them.- JuneGloom07 Talk 01:58, 7 April 2021 (UTC)
• Metro.co.uk is also not a reliable source per Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources#Metro.

@Some Dude From North Carolina:Metro have a good track record with UK soap operas. Duncan Lindsay often gets the exclusive information and interviews like Digital Spy. Will this article not be rated as GA because of using Metro?Rain the 1 19:50, 7 April 2021 (UTC)

@Raintheone: I see your reasoning; it seems to cover the article well, so I'll it slide. Passing the article. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 19:53, 7 April 2021 (UTC)

Thank you taking the time to review for us.Rain the 1 19:59, 7 April 2021 (UTC)

• Mark references from The Daily Telegraph with "|url-access=registration". Done
• Instead of writing out "(subscription required)", mark those references with "|url-access=subscription". Done
• Finally, add a #Citations header for the "reflist" and a #Bibliography header for the books (example). Done
