Talk:Pete Postlethwaite

Postlethwaite's Role in Sharpe Series.

The episodes of Sharpe that Mr. Postlethwaite appeared in are listed under the heading "Film", when maybe they should go under "Television." The entries on Sean Bean's page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sean_Bean for his role in the same episodes are listed under his "Television" heading instead of "Film". I'm not sure which is correct, but I feel they should match. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.68.75.215 (talk) 02:46, 5 August 2016 (UTC)

The Usual Suspects

Pete had a starring role in the movie the Usual Suspects. One of his greatest performances. Would somebody please add it? I tried but could not see a way to do it working through the codes. I don't know how to do that. I'm not an experience to Wikipedian editor. Blaquercia (talk) 07:40, 19 January 2020 (UTC)

I see it is mentioned further down. I suggest it be added at the top section of the page, as I think it is one of his most well recognized roles. Blaquercia (talk) 07:44, 19 January 2020 (UTC)

Irish Origins?

 Despite the Irish Independents statement that Pete Postlethwaite had no Irish ancestry, I believe his mother was of Irish descent. The surname
Lawless is found over much of Ireland. Pete's maternal grandmother was surnamed Lally another Irish name common in Galway and Mayo. The 
fact that they were Catholic would indicate some Irish connection as well.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 38.146.57.244 (talk) 16:59, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
