I think there's a reasonable chance Parsons could still be presenting Just A Minute when he turns 100. Or 200 for that matter - the man seems completely indestructible.

I frequently e-mail Guardian obits asking why certain people haven't got obits yet. Didn't work for Piet De Jong.

Currently no takers for Parsons...

Norden, he officially retired in 2006 due to health issues and doesn't seem to have made any public appearances of note in over five years. Parsons on the other hand is still going strong, continues to host Just A Minute as he has done from its inception in 1967 and make regular public appearances

Clarrissa Eden (1920) the ex bird of Anthony Eden must be a huge call.

By really involving yourself in a festival

There already is one. An exasperated one would be useful though.

Did I miss some news?

Gracias.....I actually have another 24 hours (approx) before I leave for home. I'll have to take an alternative route as my main route of Interstate 10 is closed. SC

Heeeeeeeres jonnnngy

Clack down the table this week into 11. Fort being mighty still

Very. The majority of them are straight guys who've been drawn into the industry by offers of pay for gay or couldn't make it into the straight porn industry. Drug addiction is often a driving factor as well (as mentioned in the comments on that page, how does a 26 year old die of a heart attack?)

Look. More birds.

Double Pneumonia.

For the non English:Katie Price is a household name and her Mum will get a QO from all the major papers and probably a newsbeat article when she goes.DDP drop 40 material.

Is it common for gay porn actors to leave behind a wife and children?

J.R.R. Tolkien wrote his last story on this day 44 years ago, aged 81.

Currently reading David Cassidy's second autobiography (the third one is likely in progress and mainly consists of crayon drawings - but I digress). The gripping read of how a disaffected hippie kid stumbles into the acting job that makes him the world's biggest teen idol and then spends the rest of his life trying to unscramble his head has thrown up some Googling options for dead pool picks. First off Cassidy's step-mother and TV mother in The Partridge Family - Shirley Jones - is still alive (b. 1934) Secondly 72 year old Jim Gordon; go to rock drummer for the likes of Derek and the Dominos is still alive. Convicted and sectioned after the voices in his head drove him to kill his mother Gordon still appears confused about which planet he's on. Though he may currently be in better physcial health than his old mate Eric Clapton. Either way, he has a pedigree that guarantees a q/o as and when.

With just under 4 months before 2018 (already?), still far too much time before nominations open for the 2018 Crowdsourced Deathlist! However, an announcement of a minor rule change. Testing this out in 2018, to see if it influences turn out, but you will not need to submit 50 names for a vote to count. 50 is cool, the more of those the merrier, but many of us don't have the time or inclination to name so many people for a non-reward game. So, this November, when nominations for the 3rd annual list open, people will be allowed to send in a list of between 12 minimum and 50 maximum people. This will be tested out for the 2018 version, and if it doesn't work (ie we don't have much of a change in volume of voters), I reserve the right to revert to previous for 2019, if we're still here of course.

HIM? FFS - sex-change surgery in the final weeks of life; that's hardcore!

What does numerology say? She was born Alison Rosalind Bracknell, 12 July 1964 at the sign of Cancer (sic!). Her birth name number gives 23 and date gives twice 30. Her enemy is Saturn. Saturn rules number 8 and December but Neptune rules number 7 which is an enemy of number 4. I think I'm finally beginning to master Pandit Seth's occult system. So it's gonna be November 25, 2017 which is Saturday. Especially since 25 + 11 + 2 + 0 + 1 + 7 = 46 whose ruler is the Sun and Saturn is its enemy.

Can we have a confused emoji added to the reactions please?
