No, by Old Crem standards, he has terminal brain cancer (as any mistake is surely cancer) and has 20 minutes to live. It's always cancer with The Old Crem.

True. Should change his name to The Old Chemo.

Is he Scottish by any chance.

Apparently this link takes you to a death notice for actor Mark Elwes, aged 90: https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/births-marriages-and-deaths-october-7-2021-rm95mpv8j Uncredited role in Diamonds Are Forever and part of Birkenshaw in Billion Dollar Brain. TV included Quatermass And The Pit, The Avengers and Department S.

Just seen this. When I was 18, I was working on a building site at Wormwood Scrubs prison and I met a bloke working there who pointed out this builder on the site and told me that he was he fella that built K9. I never knew if that was true, why bullshit about it, but I thought I would give you some utterly pointless information pertaining to Dr Who.

@Paul Bearer @Death Impends Please make this happen.

Andy Barker, who joined electronica acid house musos 808 State in 1989, reportedly dead, aged 53: https://louderthanwar.com/andy-barker-808-state-rip/ The Only Rhyme That Bites (UK #10; July 1990)

Apparently too unwell to attend Colin Powell's funeral https://www.upscguru.in/bill-clinton-too-unwell-to-attend-colin-powells-funeral/

I just think it’s a bit disgusting and a tad sad tbh. He’s a senile sleepy old man who belongs in a care home, not running a superpower. The man can’t even control his own wind, I don’t have much faith for him when it comes to renewables!

@Ulitzer95 I gave an IMDB link to Andy Barker, seems he has one more: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm6079781/ One under Andy, one under Andrew. I never played Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, didn't know Pacific was on that soundtrack!

Dean Smith report

Dean Smith sacked by Aston Villa

Telegraph obit for Margaret York (wiki), aged 80. Groundbreaking female police officer in the Los Angeles Police Force who inspired the police drama Cagney & Lacey.

Yes, he looked very well presenting Valtteri Bottas with a 70th Anniversary Fangio helmet. He did however say it was the 50th anniversary which, by The Old Crem’s standards, means he has dementia and about 20 minutes to live.

Spanish artist Carmen Laffon reportedly dead aged 87: https://spainsnews.com/painter-carmen-laffon-dies-at-87/

https://tribune.com.pk/story/2328294/dhol-maestro-pappu-sain-passes-away-in-lahore Pakistani dhol master Pappu Sain dead at 95(?) from liver cancer. He sometimes performed with Pakistani "rock drum jam" band Overload:

Iris Rezende on life support.

Time to bring this one out again ....

Terence Wilson (Astro) of UB40 has died:

I think the clues are there.

I should be able to lend my services if needed.

I once "broke the news" on this forum that Thomas Keneally had been diagnosed with kidney cancer. However, this article now says that it was oesophageal cancer, and Keneally survived after a couple of surgeries, now seemingly in the clear: https://www.canberratimes.com.au/story/7482966/keneally-at-his-fluent-ranting-best/

I recommend this video of him live from last year. He is quite obviously miming, which isn’t that uncommon, but the way he does it is so robotic and odd. He is hardly moving his mouth but the audience appears to buy it. Uncanny Valli.

Bit of a tenuous one but Raimund Krone, the German voice actor for Michael Dorn's Lieutenant Worf character, has died. He was 75. https://thecanadian.news/2021/11/06/voice-actor-raimund-krone-dies/

There is a saying that laughter is the best medicine. If that's even partially correct and this story about Joe Biden farting loudly in front of Camilla the Duchess of Cornwall in Glasgow at COP26 is true ...then Camillas health has just received a massive boost. Don't be confused @Ulitzer95 it's been much discussed on twitter tonight and there is an article on it in the Mail on Sunday. Apparently Camilla hasn't been able to stop laughing about it since!!
