Georgia Holt dead at 96. Cher just tweeted it. Edit: A unique DDP pick.

Murray and "Diddy" David Hamilton planning a ratings-winning double-header on Boom Radio over the festive period. Here's the attendant publicity shot: D'ya think someone should inform Murray he's still alive?

Miller also designed the Rocketeer suit for the titular film and sculpted the basic prosthetics for Davy Jones' tentacle beard in the Pirates of the Caribbean film, among many many other credits. One of great those unsung heroes of film props and effects. RIP.

@Wormfarmer... Georgia Holt is a solo hit for me: https://www.theguardian.com/music/2022/dec/12/georgia-holt-actor-singer-and-chers-mother-dies-aged-96 and Louise Tobin was a solo hit for @Yvonne, too: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/11/27/arts/music/louise-tobin-dead.html

Richard Miller, an Industrial Light and Magic sculptor who was behind Prince Leia's gold bikini, has died. He was 80. https://geolive.tv/sculptor-behind-princess-leias-gold-bikini-was-80-deadline/

I think the 2023 deathlist has the potential to be the best one. I think the deathlist in 2023 should focus more on people who serious ill rather than just really old. Too many deathlist hits are just a random 90+ year old who just drops one day. That's boring.

If England ever win it again, will the ref get the credit?

He benched the aging narcissist in the previous game and Portugal had their best performance in years.

Great post.

With the shock sudden death of the beloved David Barby from Bargain Hunt, I thought it was time to devote a thread to that most British modern phenomenon, the celebrity auctioneer/antiques expert. (Yes, all of those seemingly endless UK antiques shows eventually end up on Aussie television, too.) With half the specialists on Roadshow being antiques themselves, who do you think the Reaper will bid for next?

Congratulations Bibliogryphon!

Lady Colin Campbell who is friends with his wife hinted strongly months ago on her YouTube channel that he did have health issues. It was in response to wild speculation he is financing Harry and Meghan in order to support their attacks on the royal family. Part of her slap down of the crazy idea was he wasn't in robust enough health to partake in any kind of plotting or scheming and hadn't been so for quite some time. I think there is a decent chance next year is his year.

Patrick Moore died on this day 10 years ago, aged 89. Moore's interest in astronomy began when he was six years old, and joined the British Astronomical Association when he was 11. Five years after that, he began to wear his signature monocle due to having worse eyesight in his right eye than his left eye. Moore would study the Moon as an adult, publishing his first book in 1952 and coining the term "transient lunar phenomenon" to describe short-lived events on the Moon's surface (i.e. an asteroid strike). Moore would also discuss space-related topics on television, with his first appearance being a debate about UFOs (being on the opposing side of the idea). In 1957, he began hosting The Sky at Night, a show dedicated to astronomy that tried to appeal to both casual and professional astronomers. The show still runs to this day, and Moore would host until his death 55 years after its inception. He would also show current events in the topic elsewhere on TV, revealing the first pictures of the Soviet Luna 3 mission to the West in 1959, and broadcast all Apollo missions beginning with Apollo 8. In later life, Moore was well-known as the title character of GamesMaster, which ran from 1992 to 1998 and was the UK's first video game-focused show. Moore would give the contestants challenges to complete within the game showcased in the episode. Moore made eight appearances on the DeathList between 1991 and 2009- he is the person with the most appearances to be a miss.

You can have a classical artist if they were nominated for a Brit award before 1993 (as this would have been awarded at the main ceremony) after this date there were separate awards

Why would he be talking about Deathlist? You'd come to a site like this and NOT expect rampant speculation about somebody dying?
