Bigot... I mean yeah.. Sorry.. edit

Should it be places down about the number of comments from press he has received is actually higher than any of the other judges from the series 'Strictly come dancing?' (Unfortunatly I cannot get clear citation)

Name edit

I could've sworn this had come up before. What is his surname - Horwood or Revel Horwood? The article mixes the two - if he's one of those people who goes by his middle name I'd think I'd know about it from SCD. SCD performance tables in other articles are also a mix of the two.

And the sources contradict each other. Can we find a source close to Craig that will tell us for certain? — Smjg (talk) 21:38, 28 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Craigs actual name is Craig (first name) Revel (being his middle name) and Horwood being his surname. It is not a hyphenated name at all. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gingertwig (talkcontribs) 11:58, 10 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

Andrew Lloyd Webber is always known as Lloyd Webber, despite the name being unhyphenated. Compare also Helena Bonham Carter. I have made the references consistent and removed the "contradictions" tag for the moment.

This article isn't about Andrew Lloyd Webber or Helena Bonham Carter. It's about Craig Revel Horwood. From seeing his name alone, it's impossible to know whether Revel is his middle name and Horwood his surname, or Revel Horwood is his surname. We need a reliable source to tell us. The Digital Spy thread doesn't reach any conclusion on the matter. "In his autobiography he says that he had to add the Revel (a family name of some sort) as there was already a Craig Horwood on UK Equity's books." Can people be distinguished on Equity by middle name alone? The phrase "a family name of some sort" doesn't tell us anything – while it may be a name that runs in the family, for all we're told it could have been added as either a middle name (seems fairly common in my experience) or as a barrel to his surname. A Digital Spy discussion wouldn't constitute a reliable source even if it did come to a conclusion. To both of you: My point remains that we need a reliable source – preferably one in which Craig himself (or at least a member of his family) has set us straight on the matter. If you know of such a source, please add it to the article. — Smjg (talk) 15:22, 2 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
He's just said on Saturday Kitchen that Revel is his middle name and that it was his grandfather's first name and his father's middle name, I think the article should be changed to refer to him just as Horwood. Will Bradshaw (talk) 09:42, 4 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

Sexual orientation Categories edit

He said: "Then I fell in love with a bloke. I have been gay ever since." Should the "bisexual" Categories be amended to "gay" ones? Martinevans123 (talk) 11:56, 10 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
