I found references to Gareth's current occupation at the company 'Interski' on their website last year at the following web site address: http://www.interski.co.uk/gareth.htm, however this site has since been removed so I can no longer provide a reference. If anyone can provide a reference from an alternative source, I would be very grateful. --Izzak August 11 2008, 22:21 GMT+1)

The Internet Archive still has it, but the fact that he's no longer listed on the staff page suggests that he might no longer work there. I'm a bit vary about using that as a sole source for a BLP, though; on one hand, it was on a public website and openly mentioned his acting background, so we can be pretty confident it's the same guy and that he was okay with it being public. On the other hand, we'd still be using a single deleted(!) webpage as a primary source, which feels just a little bit uncomfortable to me. Might want to ask for a third opinion. —Ilmari Karonen (talk) 20:02, 9 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
Oh, and by the way, you'd better write a separate non-free use rationale for that image if you want it to stay in this article. Since he's still alive, one could argue that the image is replaceable, but I suppose a counterargument would be that, since he's mainly notable as a child actor, we should have an image showing him as a child. You certainly should note that in the rationale. —Ilmari Karonen (talk) 20:23, 9 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
