Uh oh

Shigeru Nakamura dead at 111. If we go on like this Fauja Singh will soon be "the world's oldest man" and by then he will be too powerful to be stopped.

Widely being reported Superstar Krishna has died.

Petula Clark is 90. She strikes me as someone who will debut on DeathList 2026- maybe 2027.

I'd just love the irony of him being out and about and being killed by a cyclist.

Iconic singer Roberta Flack is suffering from ALS. ALSo has been in failing health since suffering a stroke in 2016. DL 2023?

My bad - yeah, bring on the increased stress, he might just start seeping high-pressure blood during the announcement. Or go an Alan Brazil shade of red!

20 lists in already. Early voting or a record breaking year, time will tell.

I stand by what I've been saying, neither Trump nor Biden will be the 2024 nominees. Trump will lose in the primaries or be convicted before the election.

I'm surprised disappointed people appear to prefer Windsor Davies & Don Estelle over Quo (and also Lonely This Christmas over the far superior Tiger Feet).

Daniel Barenboim, the famed Argentine-born Israeli composer, conductor and pianist, who was a child prodigy and gave his debut piano concert at the age of seven, is 80 today. Roger Donaldson, the competent Australian-born New Zealand film director, producer and screenwriter well known for directing successful films in the United States, such as "No Way Out", "Cocktail", "Species", "Dante's Peak" and "The Recruit", is 77 today. His first film for an American-based production company was "The Bounty" (1984). Chris Donaldson, New Zealand sprinter who represented his country at the 1996 and 2000 Summer Olympics, is his son.

Absolutely.ALS is brutal enough for anyone but someone nearly 86 and with pre existing health conditions it is even worse.Also at her age and with other health problems there is far less chance Doctors would want to put her on invasive ventilation.

Bit like us deadpoolers.

There is also a chance that she kept a long list of possible candidates in case of older holders of the Order of Merit suddenly kicking the bucket.

Not one to be outdone by Eric Idle, she casually reveals a pancreatic cancer battle she had in 2015: https://neoskosmos.com/en/2022/11/06/news/greece/nana-mouskouri-reveals-battle-with-cancer-during-award-related-interview/ And she had peritonitis.

Makes first public appearance since MS diagnosis. Form-spotting possibilities with the new season of Dead to Me coming to Netflix in two days' time.

Professional diver New Zealander Liam Stone, who has competed in numerous diving competitions including the commonwealth games, but not the Tokyo Olympics due to recovering from a serious injury but is one of the country's hopes for Paris Olympics in 2024 ,celebrates his 26th birthday today.

After teetering on the brink for so long we have a Winner Congratulations to @RoverAndOut who gets three unique hits to get over the line with the demise of Star Trek pick John Aniston. This is a second victory for Rover so is clearly the Top Dog I await your selections for game V and will set a time scale for entries when I open the thread

David Mitchell on the subject that has so raised Whales hackles in today's Observer (well it would be if it weren't just the Sunday Grauniad). As usual far funnier and more eloquent than I ever manage, mind you, that's his job and he had an educashun unlike me.

I still don't see how appearing hysterical and blocking the M25 will elicit any other response but contempt amongst the public.The activists seem to think that by disrupting people constantly they will eventually see their point of view whereas it seems to be pissing everyone off and making it easier for the government to crack down on protests. I say good on people for dragging them out of the road.The police won deal with the issue so about time the public did.Blocking a road using your own person is nuts dangerous irresponsible and selfish.Plus many of those protesting seem your usual hipster type who aren't even contributing to society unlike the nurse in the Whale interview he did a 12 hour shift then got stuck by the looney tunes for another 4 hours. She needs her sleep after saving lives unlike these jobsworths who are merely damaging their own cause through their own ego.If you turn the public against you they will NOT support you but will support the government to strop the fundamental rights of protests and ignore them.If I stopped everyone in my house going about their business when they tried to leave the house due to wanting to reduce their carbon emissions they would rightly xalk me a loon and get me arrested.Same should apply to this lot.They have no right to stop people earning money to survive or cancer patients getting treatment.Tjey almost have a messiah complex.

Sad News, one of Africas music legends has gone. RIP! My 8th hit.
