In the article:
Politically, Eddington's faith as a Quaker led him to be a supporter of unilateral nuclear disarmament and an opponent of the Trident missile programme. It is likely he and Jim Hacker would have disagreed on this subject, as while Hacker says he "sometimes wonders" about whether nuclear weapons are necessary, "I'm not that unilateralist"!
It's been some time since I last saw this episode, but I seem to recall that he only said "I'm not that unilateralist" after Humphrey said "Then you must resign from the government!". Maybe he felt just threatened and softened his position for that reason. Any thoughts? René van Buuren 01:30, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
I recall that the first episode of Yes, Prime Minister - Jim Hacker was against both Trident and Nuclear weapons (and Nuclear shelters) because they were pointless and really just used as a deterrant. (Perhaps it was an episode of Yes, Minister?) pebbens ( talk) 01:20, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
Image:Paul-Eddington-book.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. BetacommandBot ( talk) 19:57, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

I notice that with Eddington's page there's very little mention of his theatre work. I know he was in Michael Frayn's "Noises Off" but I'm not sure which citations to use or, indeed if something suitable could be found WSmith26997 ( talk) 20:54, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
