Keep: The subject had significant roles in a few TV productions, and though it's difficult to gauge the notability and popularity of those shows, there is probably enough to scrape through under
WP:NACTOR. At newspapers.com, there are many newspaper clippings which provide coverage that exceeds mere mentions. Here are a couple of sources; the second is more in-depth than the first:
here and
here. I think that, with some work, the article could meet, or get close to meeting,
WP:GNG. I'd welcome any feedback from other voters, including
Dl2000,
Chris.sherlock and
John Pack Lambert.

I'm really not sure what the first one is, to be honest,
Chris.sherlock. I wasn't to access it until I applied at
WP:RX, and I chose it because it seemed a reasonable-sized chunk of writing.

Delete, without prejudice against recreation in the future if somebody can actually find stronger sources. I'll grant that there are roles here that have the potential to pass
WP:NACTOR if they were sourced properly, but the mere having of roles is not in and of itself an exemption from having to have
reliable sources. However, if we assume that the two clips listed above are the best sources Dflaw4 could find, then the ability to find two short blurbs in the TV listings (which, depending on the publication, did routinely used to run random infoboxes like that which gave a brief blurb's worth of information about a cast member in a show that was airing that day) just isn't enough all by itself.
