This article would be completely unreferenced, but nevertheless it asserts the subject's notability just fine. It is therefore not speedyable. If you're considering whether to speedy-delete something on the basis of whether it contains an assertion of notability why not simply look for whether there's an _assertion of notability_? It should be easy to spot.
Yes, I don't get why people seemingly have trouble with this. Even an implicit assertion of notability is fine: "Barry is one of the main characters on Neighbours." - if Neighbours looks notable, then Barry is presumably notable.
(whether a separate article about each character is appropriate is a separate issue)
