I've added a ref. for Julia's being a Pipette originally- does anything else need referencing? Youandtheguys 16:44, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Location

Simon and Julia both list their location as London, so I'm leaving it as 'London-based' despite their connections to Brighton. Youandtheguys 18:56, 21 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Expanded from 7,941 bytes to 64,545. No preference on date, but if accepted it would be good to have it on during UK daytime. The copyvio detector shows a very high likelihood of violation; this owes to high use of direct quotes and proper nouns. Not exactly GA or FA-quality yet—a lot of MOS tidyup to do, and need to find better sources for a couple of parts—but it appears to meet all the DYK criteria. Was previously deleted in 2018 then saved from a second deletion last week.

5x expanded by Steve (talk). Self-nominated at 14:52, 7 November 2020 (UTC).[reply]

This article is a five-fold expansion and is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline and any of the hooks could be used, the article is neutral and despite the high Earwig score, I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done.
