Hi |
|||
I am one of Frank's grandchildren and would like to request the addition of an official website we have set up for him, http://frankthornton.org.uk |
|||
Also, as far as we are aware, he never appeared in Emmerdale Farm. Of course I have no proof to back me up but I can't find much more proof online and it doesn't mention it on his imdb.com page either. |

Kind regards |

:Thanks for this. I've added the website as an external link, and added a {{cn}} tag to the reference to ''Emmerdale''. There may well be an ''Emmerdale'' obsessive somewhere who can confirm his appearance - if not, the statement can be deleted.

- Thanks for this. I've added the website as an external link, and added a [citation needed] tag to the reference to Emmerdale. There may well be an Emmerdale obsessive somewhere who can confirm his appearance - if not, the statement can be deleted. Ghmyrtle (talk) 12:05, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
