Only per poster. Checked emails last night - 32 new email notifications from Deathlist. tbh my first thought "Oh fuck, what have I done now?"

Reading the Twitterjousting. Penned a ditty about it: They seek him here, they seek him there, Deathlisters seek him everywhere, Is he in Clinton, or is he in hell? That damned elusive Kercheval!

As provided by YW elsewhere. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/obituaries/2019/04/24/ken-kercheval-actor-found-fame-jr-ewings-rival-cliff-barnes/ A completely useless hit for me but perhaps more useful for several others who picked him - I note he is not on the list of the deaths that win it for anyone so the game continues.....

Good enough for me for the dead tag to return...

Posts moved to correct thread. RIP Edward Kelsey, a quite brilliant actor who I will miss terribly.

Gets the honour of being the 100th DDP hit of the year as well.

I think Edward Kelsey is a hit for Sean here: https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/8931109/the-archers-dangermouse-star-edward-kelsey-dies-aged-88/

I went with Hyun Soong-jong at the beginning but nervermind, Tun Tin is good too I think !

I click on his Wikipedia page, and my god does he have such a striking resemblance to Johnny Cash...

I think I will hold of telling my parents until it is confirmed by a DDP qualifying source.

FFS - Pretty sure he was on Carlisle's close season shopping list. We're in need of experience

Anne Buydens 100 today! Is that the first noteworthy centenarian couple where both were concurrently living past 100? IE Dolores Hope didn't turn 100 until after Bob's death.

THE GRAND DEATH 2/50 23rd April 2019 Former Grand Duke Jean of Luxembourg has died aged 98 to quickly give the Crowdsource list a follow up success. He and the rest of his royal family went into exile in the United States during World War 2 because the Nazis were occupying Luxembourg at the time. You would think this would lead into more exciting adventures, but it didn't turn out to be the case for him. After the Grand Duchess Charlotte abdicated in 1964, he became the Grand Duke for almost 36 years before stepping down in 2000, being succeeded by his son Henri. The one good note is that Luxembourg was in one of it's most prosperous periods largely thanks to him and his wife's influence. He was quickly forgotten by most people due to the dullness of almost his entire life, but the Crowdsource voters did remember to put him on the list. This is his second appearance on the list, dropping down to the 43rd spot.

I see I have (I think) my first unique hit in 11 years of DDPing.

So you're thinking, 'you are pretty much perfect' then they mention they are covered in diesel. OMG. It does not get better than that.

And the first blood is forum-beloved general Anh, who leaves us prematurely after a brief illness.

Cross posting here that Hubert Zafke died last year.

You all think I'm going to mention Dr Who or The Avengers, but no, he was the voice of this guy: And this guy: So, sad loss imo.

FUCK! I've been sitting on that one for the Windy Pool!

Its now eight years since the adventure ended (or began, depending on your opinion on an afterlife) for Elisabeth Sladen
