A mystery illness? Ok, I'll bite. The doctors still haven't found what they were looking for...

There I was thinking I couldn't beat "Abe Vigoda might be getting better" in span from mention to report of death.

I think the committee would be wise to include Yoko Ono, Barbara Walters and Sheila Mercier on the list and not miss the opportunity to have a hit with them!

I will stick with my previous thought on the Bono topic a couple of months ago. He will not die. He will just disappear up his own arse.

Would you be killing her softly?

At least you weren't in the same situation as Death Impends, he submits his Hartlepool team, and two minutes later, the news came out that she died...

I feels for ya DI, couldn't resist posting it here when I saw you had just entered a team.

Whoa.

Well well well, quite the timing right there isn't it?

Rose Marie dead. http://variety.com/2017/tv/people-news/rose-marie-dead-dies-dick-van-dyke-show-1202649747/

And I mean she is disabled and a lesbian so we might win some friends at the guardian if she is on the list.Diversity and all that:p

In DeathList terms Vervoot qualifies for DL as I understand it as. #She holds no longevity records #She is not famous solely for her likely imminent demise as she was an athlete #She will get an obit from every English news source and will make news bulletins.Without the euthanasia component she would have got less coverage but it would have still been covered by msm .

How about considering the two creepiest Bond villains of all time, Mr Kidd and Mr Wint, actors Bruce Glover and Putter Smith are now 85 and 76 respectively.

As someone currently compiling a dead pool masterlist I'm saying now that if Bracknell pegs out in the next three days the likes of me might have a case against her estate for the amount of (wo)man hours it'll take us to bring on the subs.

I reckon Stan and the rest of the 95s and over on DL 2017 will be carried over into next year's list.I reckon Doris Day is due to make another appearance on DL 2018 too.

Nae Surrender? A cliche to the last.

Seems like a good guy who wouldn't lie just to get out of punishment. He must be dying

^ Aye, Sir Anthony died 40 years ago! She's the British equivalent of a Lady Bird Johnson. The thread is fine. I do think if Eden or (Pan Breed favourite) Mary Wilson were going to appear on the Deathlist, however, they would have done so by now.

If it was the wife of a dead us president you wouldn't complain.Fact is she has outlived almost all her generation so not many people remember her.Still significant.

If I ever post in here, it's just folk I personally liked. I don't give a toss what the rest of the world thought about significance, hence Michael Bond being a bigger loss this year than Tom Petty or Jerry Lewis, imo of course.

75 is elderly
