Notes

Iain Wilson is from Worthing. He voted for Gormley to carry out the Fourth Plinth project. He is dressing up as the Angel of the North, but on a low budget (because he was a last-minute stand in), wearing brown and cardboard wings with "Angel of the Fourth" written on them. He was thinking of wearing a Freedom for Palestine t-shirt; but in the end decided to do the project for himself. He tries to be a decent person. He is a nurse. His girlfriend, family and having a full-time job are important to him, he also passed his driving test recently. Being an activist and socialist are also important to him. He is afraid of being blown off the plinth or people throwing things at him.
