UK Resources
I'm hoping someone who has worked on actors/actresses from the UK can point me toward a good resource for Britsh/Irish newspaper archives. There are great resources online for the US, but I haven't located one for the UK..
Thank you!
Thank you!

I haven't found a single site, Kate, but I have found that many of the newspapers have their own digital archives. One I have found incredibly useful in my own research (and access is free): http://www.london-gazette.co.uk/search (Found a lot on Henry Venn Brandram Smith there, actually...). This archive goes back to the 1600s.

I was told of a theatre resource in Covent Garden, and eventually found this resource online, I haven't tried it out yet, but it looks like a great archive:
