  • Article is new enough, is huge, and is written in a careful and encyclopedic way. No copyvio issues: quotations are attributed properly. The hooks are short enough and are all stated in the article with an inline source, usually backed by multiple sources. I think it's desirable to link Holby City in the hooks. I personally think ALT1 is the most interesting; the others are more normal things I would expect to happen in creating a TV episode. The source for ALT1 doesn't explicitly mention stunts, but it mentions being on the edge of a roof with a harness, so a stunt is the fair way to summarise that in a word. Looking at another source from the article — ref 7 — the shot is explicitly described as a stunt. Better to have singular "stunt" rather than "stunts". For ALT2: the hook mentions the actor talking to friends and medical professionals, but the given source says the actor consulted people he knew, and the programme worked with a mental health charity, so this source doesn't specify that the actor spoke with medical professionals. In the article, the statement is backed by a different source which is a broadcast interview, so assuming good faith on that. Also note typo in ALT2 "prepartion". QPQ done.
So the article definitely qualifies, and the three hooks qualify (once the typo's fixed and maybe with the addition of the Holby City wikilink, and assuming goof faith for the ALT2 ref.)- my issues were with the sources suggested in this nomination rather than the sources which are used in the article. Good to go with a preference for ALT1 (but prefer "stunt" in the singular). MartinPoulter (talk) 11:09, 3 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@MartinPoulter: Thank you for the review. I'm happy with ALT1, as now edited. Soaper1234 - talk 12:59, 3 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Some Dude From North Carolina: Responded to all your comments below. Soaper1234 - talk 22:02, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox and lead

[edit]
  • Don't use small font in the infobox per WP:SMALLFONT.
  • "who he" → "with who he"
  • Quotations need sources per WP:REF.
  • "The episodes serves" → "The episode serves"
  • Since its a type of camera, uses of Steadicam should be capitalized.
  • Is "benefitied" a typo or a British variant of the word?
  • "had walk" → "had walked"

Plot

[edit]
  • Without the parenthetical names, the plot is at 491 words. Try getting it to 400 per MOS:TVPLOT.
  • "A flashbacks" → "A flashback" or "Flashbacks"
  • There appears to be a word missing in between "into hospital".

Production

[edit]
  • Remove the comma after "had been dropped".
  • "would featured" → "would be featured"
  • "portrayl" appears to be a typo.
  • "Holby City have" → "Holby City has"
  • "rather using the traditional steadicam" → "rather than using the traditional Steadicam"

Promotion and broadcast

[edit]
  • "insits" → "insist"
  • Promotional material should list reactions to the content not just "[content] aired [date]" per WP:TRAILER.

Reception

[edit]
  • This section looks good.

References and notes

[edit]
  • In the notes, change "see [...]" to "As depicted in [...]" per consistency with other GA-articles (similar example).
  • Archive all archivable sources (either manually or with this tool).
