The page is notable (imho) because it describes part of the output of a film-maker (Bill Taylor), please see http://www.craicaddictfilms.co.uk/ for further info, and miscellaneous entries in You Tube. The main chosen method of distribution for his work at the moment is the internet. The No Warning series uses short films, links to which are distributed through the internet, and an internet forum to advance elements of the plot. This method is integral to the series.

Have added synopses to the page. Episodes can be accessed at http://www.nowarning.co.uk/episode1.htm. This work is no different to any other serial cinematic output which uses the internet as a distribution medium.

The previous speedy removal tag was essentially to do with whether or not the material was noteworthy in a creative sense (correct me if I am wrong). I feel this is proven. Thank you for removing the tag. Now a tag has been added accusing the article of being a biog piece. It is NOT a biog piece. It is an article about a Science Fiction serial which is distributed through the internet. It mentions the creator of the work briefly and in passing. Please see the article on Daybreak (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Day_Break) as a random example of similar work. If there is a problem, use this talk page to highlight the problem, and I will attempt to correct it. I feel the work warrants inclusion, but it is time consuming to produce the entry. I cannot devote time to this if the article is going to be removed for spurious reasons. Dropping a tag onto this page and walking away is unhelpful. I await a useful reply.

I think the article is noteworthy; I understand the need to have a bar somewhere, though. The series has stirred up enough interest in Northern Ireland to merit interest here (http://www.culturenorthernireland.org/article.aspx?art_id=163) and a couple of printed articles. It doesn't have the audience of Kate Modern, but it's essentially from the same school and is the work of an up-and-coming local film-maker. It uses innovative techniques to involve the audience, and has a small but growing audience on You Tube (measured by views) and on the website.

Added character table; all that remains are the addition of images, and perhaps some "work in progress" textual additions.
