Yay the site is finally working again! Sadly Shelley Duvall has passed away. Dennis Christopher knew something after all.

There was one day this year for him to die. This was yesterday. It would have been triomphal !

Welcome back all! So @Paul Bearer, @Death Impends, which one of you did a Martha Stewart and stopped paying the bills?

Personal thank you from me to @Death Impends for posting up on the DDP to let us know what was going on. Thought I had been banned or summat!

Apparently Chappell Roan's songs (whoever that is) killed her

Joe Engle dead at 91.

There is no way Biden is getting re-elected after last night's gaffes, and the probability of him being made to step aside as Democrat candidate must surely have rocketed.

i was suffering from deathlist withdrawals so happy it's back

So Jane McAlevey has organised herself out of life with a late QO. That shakes up the leaderboard, as plenty of people saw a Labour victory in a different way! Torva Messor and wannamaker join the upper echelons with a second hit. New faces on the board include JoeMoneypenny, Captain Chorizo, Buffalo Phil and Yorkshire Banker. Both Grimgrass and gcreptile also gain a first hit, and - let the fireworks go off in the Casino courtyard - as we welcome our first bonuses for each of them, both scoring with an Ace and delivering 5 additional points. Up the workers, and updated Leaderboard.

Shelley Duvall has Olive Oyled the wheels of success, giving ladyfiona and diego their second hits already. Joining the leaderboard are Torva Messor with a hit, and Captain Hemlock having her so far down his subs' list his star was not really Shining! Hemlock draws K Clubs for 13 Points. Leaderboard updated.

@Death Impends is all round awesome.

As I am sure we have all seen in the time that the site was down, Shelley Duvall has died. Edit: Ninja'ed.

Benji Gregory, a child actor best remembered as Brian Tanner on the TV series Alf, died June 13th. He was 46. Gregory's death was first reported yesterday (July 11th). It's believed his death was accidental, the result of falling asleep in a car under the sweltering Arizona sun. https://people.com/alf-child-star-benji-gregory-dies-at-46-8676311

Gutted about this. Saw the Zombies only last month and he was on absolutely fantastic form. Both him and Blunstone had not lost it one bit - so unusual for guys from the 60s. I expect Blunstone won’t continue as the Zombies now. Really sad.

Dorothy Lichtenstein, widow of Roy and co-founder of the Roy Lichtenstien Foundation, died on July 4th, aged 84.
