I've removed this claim from the article, as it was unsourced:

There is a rumour that he had 'stolen' material from his contemporaries, like for example the majority of an entire play, which he apparently then passed off as his own.

Supposed spat with Jon Ronson

edit

The journalist Jon Ronson has also criticised Marber in print, saying he disliked him as a person after a disagreement over their nanny.

Anyone who reads the article in question will see immediately that the tone is highly facetious and tongue-in-cheek and there is no way of knowing how much genuine animosity, if any, exists betwen the two figues — as if it mattered much anyway, since this is not Hello magazine. This is not encyclopaedic material. Please do not keep inserting it. Flapdragon 02:18, 7 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Rokeby School

edit

Marber attended Rokeby School in Kingston-upon Thames but there appears to be no Wikpedia article about the school whose alumni include Richard Briers and Stuart and Mark Urban. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 114.74.209.141 (talk) 16:17, 8 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

Early Film

edit

Sometime in the early Nineties, Marber wrote and presented a short comic documentary about Dr Martens boots. This was shown on Channel Four television. Nuttyskin (talk) 02:52, 10 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
