Why don't you come on over Valerieeeeeeeeeeee?

You can

What - like the next wedding is gay? Or he's working his way through ethnic minorities before starting on women in wheelchairs.

AWESOME I think you've found a news source so low down in the pecking order I'd even rule it out for Deathrace purposes. Basically one up from overhearing a conversation at a bus stop

One of the more optimistic DDP picks this year, a man who had his picture taken with an Aston Martin, died in February. Absolutely nowhere near a QO, but his passing was marked by the 1st Fenstanton and Hilton Scout Pack.

Exclamation mark, as in "this person really didn't get a QO"... Also in earlier years (2007-2011) for some folk who'd be slam dunk obits today.

"light-hearted laugh-a-long classic", lol! It was 'When the Window Blows' that got me

Well when he was at Chelsea he could never remember the team he'd picked the week before!

So, a two part documentary starts on UK TV this Thursday promising "inside tapes" from the days of the Manson Family. More to the point - might give us some form studying where the surviving family members are concerned

Or what self-medication options she chooses Either way - drugs on the current cancer - you could say it's a crack habit that's doing for her ...Oh, my coat

No love for Al Matthews on the forum? Ah, well, Al Matthews has died: https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/news/al-matthews-dead-age-aliens-grande-hill-death-a8552286.html Played Benny Green's father on the show. Leaves afaik Jumoke Debayo from the Green family alive. He also had a #16 UK hit with Fool.

'.....the public poured their hearts out to a host of celebrities when the stars took over a call centre. Famous faces also including Countdown’s Rachel Riley...' Wouldn't be the first time that Rachel Riley has helped men release a few built up stresses and tensions.

What, in that against all odds she'll survive forever?

It wasn't just the eggs and ham that went green as Dr Seuss died aged 87, 27 years ago today. [There was a problem uploading the file. I'll try inserting the picture again later.]

Congrats on the duo with Charles K Kao msc.

While we are on Zeffirelli here’s a video from last month of Leonard Whiting and Olivia Hussey as they are now.

Colin Baker and Nicola Bryant were on Celebrity Pointless tonight. As we all are aware Colin is rather rotund these days. Nicola still looks amazing and could easily pass for someone in their mid 40s. Just hoping she avoids the apparent curse of Dr Who 70s and 80s companions which killed off Elizabeth Sladen and Mary Tamm in their 60s and has also effected Janet Fielding and several others.

Would expect Palin to live to a ripe old age.

He should definitely appear on the list next year if he’s still breathing

So, if you're from Australia any and every bit of local news/inside track on Anne Hamilton Fucking Byrne would be very welcome. I can only assume she continues to breath because God and the Devil are - for once - united in having no desire to meet her.

A hard border follows, terrorism rears it's ugly head again and unification happens in 2024.

Gamil Rahib at 91. https://egyptianstreets.com/2018/09/19/egyptian-french-actor-gamil-ratib-dies-at-91/ Played Majid in Lawrence of Arabia, that's gotta be up there for the "films with dead cast" thread watchlist now surely?

I've certainly found over my years of married life that I'm more likely to get a stroke on my birthday.

Gary Kurtz, producer of the 4th and 5th Star Wars movies, among others, has died of cancer aged 78.
