Terry-Thomas

Can you help me out with this? I've looked through the screen persona and legacy sections of this article and can't where the term "character actor" is used and a source for that. I've Googled Terry-Thomas and "character actor" and similarly haven't found a good source for it. Where is it in the article? Rodericksilly (talk) 12:01, 15 January 2025 (UTC)

It's written throughout. I'm surprised you didn't find any sources for it: his inclusion in British Film Character Actors: Great Names and Memorable Moments comes up when I run the searches, as does Robert Ross's The Complete Terry-Thomas, Anna Cale's The Real Diana Dors, Terry Rowan's The Kings & Queens of Hollywood Comedy and many others - and that's just from Google Books, let alone the wider internet or any other book data streams. - SchroCat (talk) 12:21, 15 January 2025 (UTC)

Edit summaries

That probably could have been phrased differently. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 18:42, 15 January 2025 (UTC)

It certainly could, but it's not incorrect. - SchroCat (talk) 18:43, 15 January 2025 (UTC)
