He's "died" more times online than Tony Hart!

You would expect a few hits early in the year from those known to be gravely ill when the list is compiled. It's also just as possible the hits dry up after a fast start as in 2011. How Coronavirus might effect the list is another matter.

Also in Northern Ireland.

Olivia De Havilland was 100 before finally being made a Dame and is with us yet.

Is she well enough to go to the palace for it?

Very sad, I think she has a young family too as I remember her reporting on election night 2005 while heavily pregnant.

Still unlikely, he starts with over 50% of the vote and new party leaders usually get a bounce in their own seats, plus sitting PM's attract extra protest candidates which merely splits the opposition vote and increases their majority.

I suppose like his most famous character he was always fated to die in 2019.

I think so, I knew the name was familiar from somewhere.

I guess his work isn't "relevant" to most people today, unlike the cultural icon that is Grumpy Cat.

Perhaps just as well he didn't get to see Labor blow it again.

Did he have a postal vote?

That's a shame, I wrote about his work for my HND.

Proof positive that second terms shorten life expectancy.

Presumably it would make it too easy if they could keep resubmitting everyone. It also requires more fresh blood each year.
