This page is virtually identical to Jack Duckworth's, being as the two characters are a double act.

Maybe they would be better merged into a single "Jack and Vera" page.

I don't know if a merged page is the way to go, as they are both individual characters, but both articles definitely need cleaning up and making more personal. I'd do it but I don't really know anything about the programme, I only cleaned up the article about Jack (without realising that the article about Vera was virtually identical and contained the same mistakes and general non-encyclopedic language). --Aenimiac 20:21, 5 July 2006 (UTC)


They should get a seperate page dedicated to the couple, ala Scott and Charlene Robinson and Karl and Susan Kennedy like with the Neighbours pages, but still keep the single ones.

I concur, they should stay seperate, especially now vera is leaving, although you could make a seperate Jack and Vera page which describe the couple's time together as they are a super copule. And can who ever keeps deleting the picture of Vera, please stop. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.5.220.176 (talk) 21:57, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

Oppose: Two completely different characters. LBM 22:36, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Demise section

Can someone edit this down a bit (well, a lot) please? It doesn't have to cover every single thing that happened in the relevant scenes! 81.158.0.164 (talk) 00:36, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

It will be relevant in the future when people will be interested in what exactly happened, just leave it, this page dosn't have too much information compared to other articles like Pauline Fowler etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.7.33.247 (talk) 13:10, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

We need to know how she died. Details of how her slippers were grabbed for her go on fansites, not encyclopedias. There is such a thing as too much information, even on an electronic encyclopedia. 81.158.0.164 (talk) 22:25, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
Yes and the fact that she died from heart failure, in her sleep has been explained. I would rather describe an event fully then to leave it in a couple of sentances, let's face it nothing drastic is going to be added to this article in the future (as the character is dead) events have been described, maybe not your liking but nonetheless, the full record of what happened has been recorded. Any extra details is a useful bonus for readers to know what occurred, fully . Plus, it's only a characters page, it doesn't have to be a big fuss.
