ATM

Although no source is given for his use of this machine, it should be noted that the ATM was actually a voucher based cash dispensing machine. The first modern day ATM was introduced to consumers in 1969 by Chemical Bank. → friedfish 12:45, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

One source is Have I Got News for You on 27 April 2007, though it didn't mention it was Barclays Bank, and indeed Paul Merton asked, "How did he know what it was? Did he just go around pushing bricks hoping that money would come out?!" Dave-ros 10:01, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox

Can someone please fix the infobox so that it displays his daughter's name, which is present on the edit version of the screen? I don't know how to fix it. Werdnawerdna (talk) 01:28, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The field is no longer active. It was removed from the template in March 2008; see Template talk:Infobox actor/archive7#Children and Relatives and Parents and Template talk:Infobox actor/archive7#Alma mater and sibling parameters for discussion thereof. -- Molotron 09:06, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The article infobox is not meant to have detail at this level; and it's in the nature of the way actors work that they may have time off between roles, sometimes for years. That doesn't stop them being active, because they may be doing other things, or the article doesn't report everything they have done. Hope that helps. --Rodhull andemu 18:40, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
