    Hollywood Possibilities

    A unique pick 'hit' for me in the DDP but I choose him because he was in one of my all time favorite films Fright Night (1985). I wasn't aware he was in Die Hard 2, for me it was all about Fright Night. The brilliant Chris Sarandon is around the same age as Art and also starred in Fright Night. He might make some deadpoolers a good pick me thinks.

    Perhaps this is a sign of an imminent deluge of Crumble hits to round of the year.....?!!

    Death By Numbers 2025

    I'm really glad I've spotted this as a name I had penciled in as a definite pick on the DDP and that I felt sure would be a unique pick is on your team here! It gives me the chance to swop it out for something else that could be a safer pick to be unique. It may be a name you intend to use in the DDP or just be a name other people may now put in their DDP now they have seen it here.

    Death By Numbers 2025

    Just amended my post to make Rupert McGuigan my joker.
  6. With the news announced earlier that Hollywood legend Jane Fonda is recovering from cancer surgery on her lip and the fact she turned 80 last year. I felt the time was right to give Jane her own thread on this forum. Whilst this particular health issue at this time seems to be something the doctors are likely to keep on top of.She is now definitely someone to keep an eye on.

    Who Should Be On The Deathlist 2025?

    Some debut or returnee names I'd like to see on the list. Shirley Maclaine Yoko Ono Jane Rossington Frankie Valli Eva Marie Saint Princess Alexandra James Baker Jack Nicholson Dickie Bird The Dalai Lama Bernadette Chirac
  8. Thought it would be a good thing to have as a counterbalance to all the discussion on deaths and ill health to have a thread dedicated to the reporting of births of new life to celebrities and famous people https://www.thesun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/12067247/lauren-pope-gives-birth-baby-girl/ We start of with the birth of a baby girl called Raine to ex TOWIE reality tv star Lauren Pope.

    Ideas and possibilities for 2025

    Thank you. I have just added him to the three tatty pieces of A4 paper that are home to my DDP long lists! If anyone wishes to take my definite DDP drops of nongenarian former Victoria secrets boss Les Wexner, or Ron Russell the man who helped rescued Princess Anne from Kidnappers in the 1970s or inventor Brad Parkinson and finally (for now!) or British hunky beefcake muscle actor John Hamill of my hands then please feel free!

    Derby Dead Pool 2025

    Yes I'm currently working on my three DDP teams and I also have had to drop Lynda Chalker from consideration because I have so many great and varied options to choose from in my lists. It would be a shame if she isn't picked by someone though as I think she'd be a great pick and worthy pick and it would be a shame for her to end up on the list of the missed in 2025. .

    Hi Banana, I have just checked and there is no sign of an email in my regular email or junk spam box There is a small chance that I might have mass deleted my spam box to free up phone memory without checking but I normally do not press delete without checking. But I can't 100% preclude the possible the error is my fault. If you need me to private message you my email address so you can please resend then please let me know. Many thanks

    Derby Dead Pool 2025

    As with many things in life much of the excitement lies in anticipation. In my experience anticipation is at least half the thrill....

    Will previous participants still automatically receive an initial email inviting them to take part as in previous years or do we just email the website? Asking as I haven't received an email but I am unsure if the protocols etc have changed. Thank you in advance.

    Princess Alexandra I think deserves more consideration than all names but King Charles in your list.
