BBC News is a strange name

Hopefully she won't do that if she's got to make the death announcement.

Correct.

Twitter reporting the death of Doctor Who signature tune composer Ron Grainer. Various wikis have also been updated to indicate his death. https://tardis.fandom.com/wiki/Ron_Grainer

Leaving extra clothes/nightwear for him perphaps give he may not have brought as much as he may not have originally expected to stay this long.

This is getting tedious now. I come on here every morning to new posts in about 10–20 threads and they’re all of him whinging, having a go at people or spamming with things intended to piss folk off like “Poor Bob Dole” or “I am not taking part in this deadpool”. Please stick him on mod preview PB until he can adjust his attitude and learn to contribute constructively.

If you’re gullible enough to believe the desperate attention seekers peddling utter nonsense on Twitter, then your time deserves to be wasted. i don’t understand why you need to know first. If he had been declared dead at 8am, he would still be dead at 8.10am. Presumably.

Crass, loud mouthed Miriam Margolyes talking shite? Well I never.

Daily Mail Oliver Holt reveals his dad Thomas, husband of Eileen Derbyshire, died last weekend from Alzheimers.

And suddenly cooling down again apparently...

There are some people that have been on here even longer. As I've said before, don't like it? Fuck off.

Rewatched My Big Fat Greek Wedding (2002) tonight. I was surprised to read that not only was a sequel released in 2016, but all cast members were still alive and reprised their roles too. Michael Constantine who played the crazy Greek father of the bride is 94 in May. He looks like he was circling in 2016 to be honest. Surely can’t last much longer. What totally shocked me though was that the granny in the films (ie the mother of Constantine’s character) is still alive and she’s ancient! A little known actress called Bess Meisler. No DOB on Google but Ancestry reveals she was born in January 1923.

If Prince Philip is nearing an imminent death, it isn't a Prince who's dying, it's a husband and father. Where I live in the US, which, granted, is the middle of absolutely nowhere, at end of life family is allowed to come and visit in person. Charles and Philip have never been close. I cannot imagine a scenario where Charles is the one person to say their goodbyes in person.

Hope he doesn't expect his mate Raol Moat to sneak him in a takeaway...

Exactly.

That car was probably just delivering clean underpants. One must not have a crusty bottom when placed in a box.

Is he? Haven't read anything about that today

And as I've said before, it's very silly because acting is one profession where one's sex is relevant. If you are casting a male role you are almost always looking for a male actor, and a female actor for a female role. So it is practical and convenient to have words which distinguish between the two.

Ignoring the fact that we have no clear evidence this is the end for the D of E anyway, just remember this is all a dress rehearsal for when Her Maj meets her maker. Since he went into hospital, this thread has added 11 pages thus far, and just since Charles went to see him this afternoon it's added 6 pages, EIIR is going to go stratospheric when the end is near.

told you

ATM Machine is a duo for me and La Faucheuse.

Honestly they have all gone now. I might shed a tear when Peter Falk finally succumbs to Alzheimer's though.
