Gooseberry Crumble

Indeed you are correct she did in 2006 aged 52.

Yes I'm kicking myself for not including her in any of my Derby dead pools this year although I did include her in death by numbers pool.

Bonnie Pointer a 'hit' for me in this pool.

Apologies!

https://www.austinchronicle.com/daily/music/2020-06-08/james-hands-gone-to-heaven-at-age-67/ 67 year old country and western singer and songwriter James Hand has died aged 67. Is it just me or does this genre seem to be losing a lot of people this year proportionately or in above average numbers?

According to Front row soccer website and wikipedia former British football player Ralph Wright who played for numerous teams including Hartlepool United, Norwich City and Bolton Wanderers and latterly in American teams has died aged 72.

SNP MP John Nicolson has announced the sad news that his mother has passed away.

Ooh what makes number 7 lucky?

Just sent my list Will! Enjoy

Oops my mistake! Well he did Enjoy me keeping him well fed as I recall hence why he always seemed to get so big!

Both very tempting suggestions! I think back in 2002 when Etta James died I must have been very busy and preoccupied baking my mans bread and making sure hes well fed and didnt have much time to take notice of which celebrities had died in the news!

When oh when will the Earl of Airlie and the Duchess of Grafton appear on the updates here and affirm my wisdom in choosing them year after year.....

My list is coming along very nicely apart from when I put Etta James down as a contender before I realised that she had died in 2002!

Without the Twitter account title giving away that it was Mark I would definitely think that was Richard Wilson 100%!

Great detective work thank you.

Ivors former Howards Way Costar Jan Harvey is active on Twitter if anybody is minded too or 'brave ' enough to tweet her and ask as I think she would either know if it is true or perhaps be able and willing to find out? Also this guy is the son of actor Terence Frisby were he references the fact Ivor was his Dads oldest friend. I'm sure he would know too if Ivor has sadly died .

All in good time!

Certainly a distinctly unhealthy look.

Naughty! I actually found out after some research last night that he is the father of the late Sally Clarke who died in 2007.She was famously wrongly accused of killing her two babies back in the late 1990s in an awful miscarriage of justice. Rosemary Squires was Sallys stepmother.

So far only have four names as definites but I am really in the mood for research online this week so I am going to strike whilst the irons hot which I reckon will be no later than the weekend! Thanks again for running this pool ,I am just going to try and absorb the games new rules and features.My brain is too addled by insomnia and fosters lager to comprehend at the moment!

https://www.salisburyjournal.co.uk/news/18451996.tributes-former-salisbury-police-chief-frank-lockyer/ Frank Lockyer , husband of british singer Rosemary Squires perhaps best known as the voice behind the Fairy Liquid advert, has died aged 90.

Cheers @YoungWillz Working on my list and should have it in your inbox in a matter of days! May the combination of lady luck, the all important cards and the enema make for a fantastic pool! Roll the dice and let's bring it on!

Very elegant and grand. A fabulous photograph of a centenarian.

It's a small world! One of my friends was cruised by Freddie Mercury in a London gay club in the early 1980s, my aunt once chatted with Judy Finnigan and hubby Richard Madeley on a beach in Truro around 2005(Judy was very tongue in cheek with her humour and sarcasm and definitely kept putting Richard back in his box when he tried to dominate the conversation!) and a relative used to work with Wayne Rooneys Mum Jeanette. A woman who liked to tell very dirty foul mouthed jokes on her tea break! Sorry just wanted to illustrate what a small world it is and outclass Aitken with my web of connections!
