Talk:A Young Doctor's Notebook (TV series)


The series overview is off? Doesn’t mention Peacock, and everything described happens in Peacocks S1E1-3. Nothing on the remaining 5 episodes. Idk, check out that vs the episode list and descriptions on Peacock and tell me if I’m crazy or fix it. Thanks

Merger proposal

edit

I propose that A Young Doctor's Notebook (season 1) and A Young Doctor's Notebook (season 2) be merged into this page. Both the separate articles are short enough and can be easily merged into this article, and there is no need for them to exist separately. --Babar Suhail (talk) 14:38, 14 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

Notes

edit
  • I think it was later re-broadcast on Sky Arts 2. Not encylopediac
  • The first series was "released under the Playhouse" banner.
  • The first series was the highest rating show (ever/to-date) on Sky Arts. Added
  • Reviews are here for series one and here for series two at Metacritic
  • Non-English Reviews are here at IMDB
  • Two award nominations are here at IMDB
  • The running time varies from 22, 23, 24, 25 minutes depending on the source.
  • It may also be a Comedy-drama drama series - check the references - like Inside No.9, it can be mentioned as a British black comedy in the lead sentence but as a British black comedy and comedy-drama in the infobox Done
  • Lots of press clipping are here at the British Comedy Guide
  • Use Template:Television home release for the Home media release section (series 1 release, series 2 release, series 1 & 2 release -- some/all of these three released were on DVD only and some/all of these three were on BluRay aswell) Not necessary; use prose; especially given that it will require the three instances of the same template
  • The series was filmed at Twickenham Film Studios - coincidentally like Inside No.9 - according to the British Comedy Guide
  • According to IMDB trivia, the series was originally pitched as a movie. This may well be true given that alot of Mikhail Bulgakov's works have been adapted to films - there is even a category on Wikipedia for it
  • According to IMDB trivia, this is Daniel Radcliffe's first lead role in a TV series. I think it is. And it is probably important to note Radcliffe is a "movie star" after "eight Harry Potter blockbusters" and this is his first lead role in a TV series. As well as the Hamm was mid-way(?) through filming Mad Men in the United States, that he was/is nominated-and-winning many (Emmy and Golden Globe) awards for.
  • I have requested through FlickrMail that Alan Connor re-license two of his photos A Young Doctor's Notebook scripts and IMG_1862 (of Mark Chappell). These may be useful in the Production or Reception section.
  • Cut the Episode summaries in the Plot section. And re-word it. So that the article has a meaningful Plot section and a short plain Episodes section with just release dates and ratings. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.102.82.5 (talk) 04:26, 3 June 2016 (UTC) Copied but needs clean upReply
  • The words "flashforward, flashback, framing device, prologue, epilogue" are probably useful for the "setting"/format subsection — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.102.82.5 (talk) 05:07, 3 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Broadcast mentions

edit

I've been contacted on my talk page to ask about viewing figures for this programme released in the magazine Broadcast. There were a number of hits; I'll list anything particularly interesting.

Lots of other mentions, but much of it is in passing. There's nothing else on ratings (other than a repetition of what is found on the pages I've listed above). Josh Milburn (talk) 18:54, 3 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

July 2017 copy edit notes

edit
  • I wavered over capitalizing young doctor and older doctor. They seem to be used as proper nouns, referring to a specific character rather than anything generic. It can be a little tricky; doctor on its own would be capitalized if used as a title referring to a specific person but lowercase if used as a job description, per MOS:JOBTITLE.
  • There may be a little too much plot summary in this article, having a significant series overview, individual episode plot descriptions, and character-specific plot information under cast. This is felt to be a bit redundant, per MOS:TVPLOT.
  • It seems like there may be an excessive number of external links (including videos). WP:LINKSTOAVOID

If you have any questions or comments, feel free to post them here. I don't mind reverts. – Reidgreg (talk) 17:37, 6 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
