[edit] Alcoholism

What is the matter with mentioning Nighy's alcoholism and subsequent cure? It is inspirational and also widely discussed by Nighy himself.

[edit] Married?

Just a minor point, but it's not clear if Bill Nighy is actually married to Diana Quick or not. Both Wikipedia and IMDB are inconsistent on this point, with the Bill Nighy article denying marriage and the Diana Quick article saying the opposite. -Chinju 03:39, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pronunciation

How do you pronounce Bill Nighy's last name? If someone could add this to the article, that'd be greeeeeat. - Brian Kendig 06:49, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

Nye(as in the first part of 'night') - ee. —Vanderdecken∴ ∫ξφ 15:02, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Davy Jones Pic

Davy Jones was entirely CG in the movie, so no matter how reminiscent his appearence is to Nighy, its not really worth having a picture. Thoughts? Cheers, Dubbya9 05:36, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

I've changed the picture's description to reflect the fact that he was the voice actor. But seeing as there are very few pictures, it's worth keeping in my opinion. -- Lima Golf ^{Talk | Contributions} 11:01, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

Wrong. Davy Jones was not "entirely CG". You can check it here. Even actor's facial movements were used. --88.154.40.78 19:06, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Acting career

I've deleted this sentence from the paragraph that mentions his BBC Radio roles:

In addition, he also had a minor role in Softly, Softly.

It's not significant, other than as his first role recorded on IMDB, and if people are interested in his early appearances they can click the link to his page on that website. –Fayenatic london 23:30, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Filmography

Isn't filmography supposed to be listed reverse chronologically? It is on most bibliography pages. -- Lima Golf ^{Talk | Contributions} 11:02, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The Science Guy?

Is he? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.171.211.111 (talk) 06:58, 24 February 2007 (UTC).
