Anyone know what happened to British film and TV actor Fred Evans? Appeared in a lot of bit parts (The Avengers, Minder, Bergerac, Jeeves and Wooster); he’s a scene stealer as a policeman in Mr. Horatio Knibbles. I imagine he’s long dead but can’t find a date anywhere.

Just when you thought Sunak had a fucking grating register, up springs oLiVEr dOWdEn. Dowden's really, really poor at PMQs, isn't he. Rayner crushed him and his party, ground the rubble to a paste and grouted one of her bathrooms with them. -
He was my number1. That along with it being last 7 days. Changes score completely.

MP for Birken-Dead 5/50 23rd April 2024 Veteran Labour politician, Frank Field has finally succumbed to cancer after a decade long battle. Field first entered the realm of politics in 1964 when he became a councillor on the Hounslow borough council but he lost his bid for reelection in 1968 and instead became director of The Child Poverty Action Group. His first attempt to join parliament in 1966 was unsuccessful as he failed to usurp the incumbent Conservative MP in the South Buckinghamshire constituency, however in 1979 he was elected MP for the Birkenhead constituency, where he remained until 2019. Throughout Thatcher’s government Field occasionally sat on the front benches of the opposition, holding minor roles and chairing committees. In 1997, Tony Blair appointed him Minister for Welfare Reform but didn’t last long in the role as he was constantly clashing with other ministers and he eventually resigned after only 14 months, with Blair describing his ideas as “unfathomable”. Upon returning to the backbenches, he became a vocal critic of both Blair and Brown’s governments, even at one point before the 2010 election attempting to have Brown replaced. Field was a strong supporter of Brexit and increasingly lost support from his party and constituents for his views. In 2018 he left the Labour party citing internal racism as his reason, however some commentators have suggested he only left to save the embarrassment of being sacked. In the 2019 election he stood as an independent candidate in his constituency and much to no-one’s surprise didn’t win, but was appointed to the House of Lords in 2020. In October 2021 he announced he had terminal cancer and had been in hospice care; he had initially been diagnosed with prostate cancer around 2013. He died yesterday aged 81. He was making his third appearance on the Crowdsourced Deathlist, this year at no.9
