Hate articles like this. Saying someone looks amazing, and setting them up for a bald man named Shug to comment that they're hideous/repulsive. She's alive, firstly, and looks as expected when you consider she used to have a BMI of 106 and store fat in her forehead.

IMDB is now claiming Pamela Mant died on 13th October 2022 in USA.

Ruth Handler died on this day 22 years ago, aged 85. - Handler would found a plastic furniture company with her husband Elliot. Due to falling sales in World War II, the Handlers would begin making dollhouse furniture, and in 1945 the company was renamed to "Mattel". The dollhouse furniture sale success led to the company fully entering the toy market. - In 1956, Handler would visit Germany, where she would notice a doll based on a comic book character named "Bild Lilli". She would bring one home for her daughter to play with, and noticing the absence of adult-aged female dolls in toy stores (girls would tend to play with baby dolls), decided to redevelop Bild Lilli for an American audience. Three years later, the doll would release, Handler would name it after said daughter- and the rest is history: Barbie's boyfriend Ken would follow in 1961, named after the Handlers' son. - Handler would have a mastectomy following a diagnosis of breast cancer in 1970, and would develop her own prosthetic breasts under a new company, "Ruthton": They were known as "Nearly Me"s. - Handler would resign from Mattel in 1975 after she was reported to have made fraudulent financial reports; she was fined and had to serve 2500 hours of community service. - Handler was later diagnosed with colon cancer and died from complications of surgery treating it. Interest in her surged following the 2023 Barbie movie, where her spirit would be played by Rhea Perlman.

They should neve have got relegated last season IMO.

First of the first. Sonja Christopher reportedly dead: Source seems reputable. DDP pick.

As I predicted in October, albeit you had the good grace to make it interesting by threatening to collapse! Congratulations Biblio, now if you could see fit to throw 3 points our way next weekend, I'd be most grateful.

Funny how other countries' nationalised rail networks are efficient, cheap and no less reliable than ours. We already own about a third of the network because they have to keep taking franchises off their fat cat mates who couldn't run a piss up in a brewery. Might as well go the whole hog and make it official.

Mango boy is a very negative person, might need some therapy.

I'd love to hear Jonathan Ross reporting on Rishi rushing and racing to Royalty for Prorogation!

You and everyone bleedin’ else

1) the government won't collapse and cohabitation won't happen 2) his death is independent from his daughter future success on an unrelated topic, if the 2027 elections were to be held now, no matter who would be against her, Marine would be elected president by far… Can't wait………

Count Basie died on this day 40 years ago, aged 79. - Basie's actual first name was William, and he began using his stage name sometime around 1928. His parents were instrument players, and they taught him how to play the piano- albeit he preferred drums. - Basie would get his start in Harlem (during its eponymous 'Renaissance' in the 1920s), before moving to Kansas City in 1929. He would play for the Bennie Moten Band, and he would soon take over the band when they kicked Moten out. He would rename it 'Count Basie and His Cherry Blossoms', before later renaming it to 'Count Basie and His Barons of Rhythm'. Among his biggest hits included "One O'Clock Jump" and "Boogie Woogie": - Basie's band would break up once the big band era ended following World War II, but he would make a new orchestral band in 1952, called "The New Testament Band", moving from swing and blues to jazz at this time. - Basie would make a few cameos in movies in his later years, most notably in Blazing Saddles: - Basie was one of the musicians mentioned in Stevie Wonder's "Sir Duke", and one of two alive at the time of the song's release in 1977 (the other being Ella Fitzgerald). Basie was specifically the first one mentioned in the second verse's lyrics. - Basie died from pancreatic cancer.

The gift that keeps on giving. Private Eye again.

Great, but my personal favourite is Nights in White Satin, which was a Hayward composition.

That was one of my thoughts.

I think she's probably big enough to have her own thread.
