With the number of covid threads rising rapidly and uncontrollably, the DL has been moved into Tier 3.

President of Burundi (1996-2003) Pierre Buyoya, died from corona at 71 years; https://www.iol.co.za/news/africa/burundis-pierre-buyoya-dies-from-covid-19-e47a69b8-8c26-40ce-b338-90a7bd7929d1

But why have a thread for all? If Lionel Blair gets the vaccine and looks rough you report it in his own thread. No need to have a general one.

FFBI pick Lisa Griffiths dead with QO Puts drol in a tie for 4th and Heading Nowhere (no idea who this is) into 5th

This thread makes me cringe.

Congratulations to @Toast who gets her fifth hit with Jeremy Bulloch it is a unique but more importantly it is a fourth hit in a single category placing Robbie Coltrane's substantial frame between her and victory. The game has not yet been running four months.

FTFY.

It's a terrible fucking idea.

In the James Bond category we have had the two big hits already. There are three picks remaining with four selections (as Geoffrey Palmer had). They are David de Keyser Yaphet Kotto Andre Maranne In FIFA Nobby was the big pick but Too Song Chul has 8 picks and Jimmy Greaves 7 Another Jimmy is the big pick in Nobel prize category Jimmy Carter with 9 Frank Borman leads the space fliers also with 9 but there are no hits in this category yet. For Eurovision ONJ unsurprisingly leads with 9 but Niels Olsen has 8.

No but the publicity surrounding them gives an excellent form watching opportunity

Hospitalised again due to a "significant big toe infection"...

Typical, the one place I didn't look. Merci! Updated.

Updated entry for the death of Algerian-French novelty singer Alberto Staiffi (real name Albert Darmon). Died off radar in February. When I compiled this list originally I knew he was alive as late as 2018 and in his 90s as per his own site. It said he was living in Montpellier. That death notice is definitely him – says the individual was born in Algeria, and died in Sète, which is in Montpellier. There are also RIP comments on YouTube but surprisingly, no French obit.

Can I recommend Brian Blessed, he is 84 and has heart conditions and had a pacemaker fitted in 2015, so wouldn't say he was in that good health

I’ve no idea, I’ve always been shit at working out who the fakes are on here - even so, it was still a cracker

The broadcast ended for Jack Anderson on this day 15 years ago, aged 83.

When he was 47, then Tbh I'm not amongst those thinking him a bad pick. The man's alcohol intake has ravaged his body and mental faculties. We're clearly in George Best territory in terms of the accumulation of damage and he's blatantly an alcoholic with little evidence he can bring the sickness under complete control. John Martyn - similar in that he pretty much created his own persona and spent most of his public life in denial about the real nature of his background - didn't see his 61st birthday. Shane's 63 on Christmas Day. John Martyn - aged about 25 John Martyn - last tour

*adds Sir Cunto to shortlist*

Gunter Sawitzki, in the West German squads for 1958 and 1962, reported dead aged 88:

Ten years since DL-Con IV, the first I attended. Also in attendance, Maryport, Rotten Ali, NAP and Six. Much London Pride consumed.

Paul McCarthy is dead. Yep, you heard that right. Blogger Paul McCarthy has indeed died
