Usage
This template creates a link to a person's biographical profile at British Film Institute (BFI) Film & TV Database.
For example, John Gielgud's entry at BFI is found at this URL:
http://ftvdb.bfi.org.uk/sift/individual/110029
The template uses the last number from the URL (110029) as its first parameter.
The second parameter sets the name to display for the link. This is optional if the name is the same as the article title (i.e. normally only used if the page contains a disambiguator phrase).
{{bfidb name|11029|John Gielgud}}
