Oh OK my bad I am going to blame Elon Musk

I'm getting hoax vibes. @CarterCenterUS has single-digit tweets and likes, whilst @CarterCenter is the original, more established account.

A brief check suggests that the DeathList has never been cited in an academic text. The DDP has once, as a reference on the burial location of the wife of kids' TV host Johnny Morris: https://purehost.bath.ac.uk/ws/portalfiles/portal/314151/Walter_Deathscapes_2010.pdf

Not forgetting Dame Patricia Routledge and DL regular Prunella Scales who both had minor roles in the soap also.

But it’s not the official account of the Carter Center is it ?

Samantha Womack has early stage breast cancer which was picked up by a mammogram. Derek Martin recently did a youtube and a part from having whiter hair looked and sounded really well and hadn't seemed to really aged since he left Eastenders. Danieela Westbrook is the best bet I would think out of the Eastenders names. Elizabeth Kelly and Arnold Yarrow had relatively minor roles.Even though Kelly was in the show 6 years she didn't have any memorable storylines. I think the Committee should be looking closer at names from Corrie and The Archers next year Corrie has Thelma Barlow who is now 93, Kenneth Cope who is 91 and has had COPD for donkeys years now and Malcolm Hebden who is 82 but has serious heart problems.Corrie also has more minor characters that are known for other things such as Doreen Mantle (96) and John Woodvine (93) who were involved in the serial killer John Stapes storyline.William Russell who played Rita Sullivans husband Ted is nearly 98 and reportedly has a failing memory. Then in the Archers you have Patricia Greene (91) , June Spencer (103) , Lesley Saeward (88) and Ysanne Churchman (97)

Welcome aboard diego you will need to be going some to catch @MariNisia but getting into the habit before the 2023 game starts is good practice

Leslie Phillips was my number 5 pick. You may have missed it cause I accidentally spelled his last name with only one l. Could I have it added as a hit?

Carita Järvinen (Wiki), Finnish model who portrayed Queen Salina in the Hammer film The Viking Queen. She died this 2022 according to this article. https://www.voguescandinavia.com/articles/lovisa-burfitt-one-of-scandinavias-most-successful-fashion-illustrator-and-andrea-de-la-barre-nanteuil Also worth noting is that her farmland in Sweden was inherited in September 2022 https://www.ljusdalsposten.se/2022-09-07/nya-agaren-arver-huset-pa-sodra-edevagen-50-i-jarvso

People of the 110 club found out that Kane Tanaka had a sister born in 1902 which means she’s probably not born in 1902 herself despite her family claims. I would go even further saying that this information is quite delicate because if her sister was born in the second half of the year (at least after may), Kane Tanaka can’t be born in the 2nd of January. of course this is just speculation and maybe her older sister was born in january or february 1902 which would fit but still this is quite odd…

Weird coincidence this one. All three surviving winners of the Boston Marathon from the 1950s died in the last few months. South Korean Ham Kee-yong (wiki) died yesterday, aged 92. He was the 1950 winner. Japan's Shigeki Tanaka (wiki) died in October, aged 91. He was the 1951 winner. Finland's Eino Oksanen (wiki) died in August, aged 91. He was the 1959 winner and 1961/1962 winner. The earliest living now is Belgian Aurèle Vandendriessche (wiki) who is 90 and was the 1963/1964 winner.

IMHO, not much.

Since 2017, the number 50 slot has been a reliable host for death list successes (Ian Brady, Mark Smith, Johnny Clegg, Peter Sutcliffe, Tom Moore). With just 50 days left in the year, what do you feel the chances are of this streak continuing for '22?

Roger Sexton A contestant on the season Survivor Amazon in 2002 died in October at the age 76. Is a pick in the DDP, so needs the People Magazine writeup and then the Daily Mail copypasta of the People obit to qualify

American born Swedish pole vaulter and Olympic gold medallist Armand duplantis celebrates his 23rd birthday today. British actor Taron Egerton celebrates turning 33 today.

Antti Luukkonen, Finnish WWII vet and at the time of his death one of the oldest living men in Finland, dead at 105. One of those vets often interviewed by media. There are two to four older, including two unidentified men born in 1914 and 1915 who might or might not be alive Mentioning Eero Blåfield, 101-year-old WWII vet, HIFK superfan, oldest member of the Blåfield noble family who I remember was in the news once over a decade ago due to his senior badminton career. Looks quite frail now

I sure love the red wave that everyone is so sure would happen

They are now providing the fake tweet as a source...

In the next few years, Sirs Ian McKellen, Patrick Stewart, and Ben Kingsley (all of whom had minor Corrie roles between 1966 and 2005, Kingsley's being one of his first ever), as well as Bill Roache could see the list as well, as all of them easily pass the fame test.

Ah, ninja'd!

Death Notice for Lady Moyra Bannister, widow of Sir Roger Bannister of the sub-4 minute mile note: http://announcements.telegraph.co.uk/deaths/260610/bannister

To be precise, both of them didnt die at the same day. according to wikipedia Leslie Philips died on 7th and Bill Treacher on the 5th of November.

Anna Karen is sadly a hit for me here: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10543127/On-Buses-EastEnders-star-Anna-Karen-dies-house-fire.html

Madonna is murdering her songs on the Eurovision right now, though I suppose that is not the kind of death we are suppose to be talking about on the death list
