No it isn't

May his victims rest in peace, and may their families finally find it.

I'm ashamed to put it here, but it's late and I'm lazy. National Theatre have reported the death of Irish actor John Rogan (on 19 March as I understand it) aged 78. https://twitter.com/NationalTheatre/status/843850703290404864 Wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Rogan_(actor) IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0736580/ Famous for theatre rather than TV and Film, but does have some notable credits and fans of Father Ted will remember him as Mr Fox from Speed 3:

Who put you in charge?

If only Gord Downie, Leah Bracknell, and Errol Christie were US Congresspeople then picking names here would be much easier

Yeah, got Rockefeller right. Hope I will be right again with Hugh Hefner.

It's an embarrassment of riches with Rockefeller's death as Death Impends regains top spot, Whoaml becomes a contender and gcreptile gets another hit in what seems like ages. Also, it's my 5000th post. Go everyone!

Biggest death in 1997 imo. Don't think anything else of note happened that year, bar Burgess of course.

Yeah, well...my current under-performers were a hastily arranged scratch squad after MK's exclusion. Can't see Spade being so trigger happy with his posts but despite the "done and dusted" nature of the current round I might compile a starting XI in case my aged team crumble to dust in the final days. I mean, how much longer can a U Boat captain expect to live?

The last act for Robert Preston on this day 30 years ago, aged 68.

very sad and shocking news. I know his association with the IRA was controversial but he was a vital contributor to the peace process in the end.Northern Ireland can ill afford to lose him right now

Thank you for posting this article.

I don't think you've quite grasped the concept of a joke.

Hosni Mubarak will be next

He is the top trend on my facebook and lots of people my age are posting about his death.Never doubted he was famous enough.

Finally.... ....a particular place to go.

Incidentally (and belatedly) congratulations to The Living End for becoming the first DDP team in history to pass the 1000 points mark! Currently on 65pts which makes a grand total of 1021pts... I salute you!

Yet another mainstream newspaper talks about it: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/long_reads/world-war-3-is-coming-a7622296.html

Dunno why people insist on posting deaths in this thread. They'll be added to the round up in due course. *sigh*

Agree, I didn't care for that. Start and end dates should be the same for everybody.
