[edit] David Catterall
One of twelve presenters on a Channel 4 (UK) show that got dismal ratings and was absolutely panned by the critics; none of the presenters had past form, and it doesn't look like this one has present form either. A couple of English editors have stated they would not know him from a hole in the ground. I am one of them. May one day be well know, but definitely is not yet. He's not even the top Google hit for the name, the European Sales Director of Strand Lighting gets that honour, followed by an Australian priest then a bloke who works for Direct Line Insurance.

- Delete I am another English editor who would not know him from a hole in the ground. Also, his show (Whatever) seems not to be notable enough to have an article (and, the WP:HOLE comment of mine applies to the show to, but I trust Guy's judgement that it was crap). Also, doesn't seem to meet notability criteria - not every TV presented has/needs/deserves an article. Martinp23 23:17, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per above - don't seem to be any sources to establish notability. At the very least it should be a disambig for the sales director, priest and insurance salesman as well (sarcasm). Trebor 00:29, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete IMdb gives 0 hits for him (1 for another person w/same name), 20ghits for that name, and most don't seem to be relative. SkierRMH,08:04, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
- Delete this nearly-English editor wouldn't know him from the proverbial hole either. WP:V and WP:N refer. Angus McLellan (Talk) 21:36, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
