02/05/2009 The article does not document her role as 'Supreme commander' Servalan in the BBC series Blakes7 in which she had a substantial, anti-hero (villianess), role.

According to her website she is in rehearsals for a play and therefore "active"--92.8.198.235 (talk) 09:53, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Big Finish War Doctor Audio Anthology

[edit]

Jacqueline Pearce recently appeared in another Big Finish audio production, "The War Doctor" audio anthology. Currently two volumes have been released (December 2015 and February 2016) and she appeared in both of them, in the role of Cardinal Ollistra. 217.71.47.58 (talk) 08:48, 5 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Daphne and Celeste.

[edit]

OK.

For various reasons, I’ve needed up watching the video — the first of two versions — of Daphne and Celeste’s Ooh, Stick You.

At around the two minutes and six minutes and six seconds mark, at the bus stop?

There’s a woman in a red dress, with a dog and a parasol: one that looks suspiciously like Jacqueline Pearce.

Is it possibly We could verify is it IS her? And add a mention in the relevant sections on her, and the song?

Thanks

Happy to review this. At first glance this seems to meet the GA requirements. I will do full review as soon as possible. Edwininlondon (talk) 12:38, 7 January 2022 (UTC) Some general comments:[reply]

  • sci-fi fans." should be sci-fi fans". as per MOS:INOROUT
  • Pearce spent five years working at the Vervet Monkey Foundation --> perhaps add in which country this is
  • The text says she was born in Woking, Surrey, but the infobox has Byfleet
  • She same year, she flew --> In
  • the BBC dramatisation --> link BBC (and delink it further on)
  • softness and predatoriness." --> softness and predatoriness".
  • cited by Steven Duckworth as --> a bit of an intro is needed, as to why we should trust his judgment (e.g. critic? journalist? art professor?)
  • the show's primary villain." --> villain".
  • original Blakes 7 cast members --> original Blake's 7 cast members
  • to recover from Servalan." --> ".

  • flaunt [their] femininity."
  • for a generation of sci-fi fans."

  • disillusionment."
  • Pearce's second marriage also ended in divorce --> to whom and when? Plus not mentioned in infobox
  • in the Filmography there is another case of Blakes 7

I'll look at the sources tomorrow. Edwininlondon (talk) 23:15, 7 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sources:

  • Quotations always need a source, even in the lead, so "a sexual awakening for a generation of sci-fi fans."[9]
  • Sources all appear reliable
  • Muir, John Kenneth, A History and Critical Analysis of Blake's 7, the 1978–1981 British Television Space Adventure --> is this a book? article?
  • Carter, Meg. "Return of '70s Seven". The Times. p. 36. --> date?
  • 33 needs a publisher, isbn and a page number for the quote, and 34 is the same?
Amended. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 23:37, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • 32 is the Times obit again, same as 9
  • source 11 needs page numbers
  • 21 the text actually says "exploit" and not "flaunt [their] femininity"
  • 25 does back up the Dr Who claims but not "As well as appearing in the BBC children's programmes Dark Season (alongside Kate Winslet) and Moondial, "
  • In the filmography it says "1964 A Question of Happiness Frances 2 episodes: "Fred" and "Watch me I'm a bird" but source 5 says Fred Frances 1964.
  • Spotcheck: 1 2 24 36 39 all fine

The other criteria all appear to be met. Edwininlondon (talk) 11:10, 8 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@BennyOnTheLoose:Not sure if you noticed I reviewed your nomination, so just pinging you. Do you have time to work on this? Edwininlondon (talk) 16:11, 10 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Many thanks, Edwininlondon. Hopefully I've covered off everything from your review. Let me know if anything else is required. Regards, BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 23:37, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
