Talk:Robert Webb

SPACE with Robert Webb

I was in the audience last night for a new Channel 4 program called Space hosted by Robert Webb (actor). I was just wondering if it should be added to the artical as in development. Greneath (talk) 11:02, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

It was cancelled before release. See [1]. 2A00:23C5:FE0C:2100:9C5E:ACC8:3F53:B3AD (talk) 13:09, 31 August 2020 (UTC)

Year of birth

Does anyone have a definitive source for Webb's year of birth? It keep being changed to 1972 (although the cat is still 1973 births). The IMDb says 1973 but we could do with an alternative source. --Whouk (talk) 10:12, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

1972 is correct. Webb said himself during a March 11th radio interview that he was 33. Crisso 10:05, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

He could have been born after March 11 1973 and still be 33 in 2006. Sycorax13 (talk) 17:02, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Great, thanks. —Whouk (talk) 10:15, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

Comic Relief

I believe I saw him behind Griff Rhys Jones in the record breaking gunging of Comic Relief 1999.

His date of birth

Sorry to repeat a comment which has been raised above, but are people sure he was born in 1972? I have heard or read that he is one year older than David Mitchell, his comedy partner - David Mitchell was born in 1974, which would make him born in 1973. ACEOREVIVED (talk) 23:25, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

Well it depends when you heard or read this...between July and September of every year Webb would indeed be just one year older than Mitchell...--Allthestrongbowintheworld (talk) 02:04, 28 October 2012 (UTC)

Bums, Boobs & Botox

He narrates this documentary on Chanel 4 UK, this has not been accounted for... 90.205.5.230 (talk) 02:24, 20 April 2012 (UTC) Gaogier

Do you mean those involved were never paid, or that this payment was never acknowledged in the company's accounts? We need something to work on. Please contribute information. --TS 20:54, 22 June 2012 (UTC)

• Robert Webb (comedian) → Robert Webb

Surely he is the most famous Robert Webb? --Relisted JHunterJ (talk) 00:28, 14 June 2012 (UTC) Unreal7 (talk) 09:36, 4 June 2012 (UTC)

• Oppose. Webb, while flavour of the month (in Britain at least) at the moment, doesn't really meet the criteria to be the default meaning. -- Necrothesp (talk) 17:44, 7 June 2012 (UTC)
• Support. I tend to agree with the nom that he is the most well known Robert Webb, certainly from a UK perspective. The 18th century politician seems relatively obscure, while the others are distinguished by their middle names anyway. PC78 (talk) 06:39, 8 June 2012 (UTC)
• Support. Traffic to the actor/comedian's article far outstrips the others, including the disambiguation page itself. Whouk (talk) 12:35, 8 June 2012 (UTC)
• Relisting comment: no notification was given at Talk:Robert Webb. -- JHunterJ (talk) 00:28, 14 June 2012 (UTC)
• Will someone please just move this already? It's been three weeks. Unreal7 (talk) 18:56, 20 June 2012 (UTC)

Younger sister

I've added detail about Webb's younger half-sister, after listening to his autobiography on Radio 4's Book of the Week. As the broadcast will only be available for a limited period and is only available in certain parts of the world, the article would benefit from a better reference. If anyone has a printed copy of the book, maybe they could find the relevant page and add it as a reference ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 10:06, 1 September 2017 (UTC)
