Aye, you cannot be a missed pick if you could not have been picked at all. Of course, they should be noted as dead behind the scenes on any masterlist or whatever. But, like yer cancer mums or first cousin to Amanda Barrie, forget about it.

Would Elivira qualify for a mention? Would she have qualified as a pick this year?

Labour of love! John Prescott has punched out. Deputy PM for a decade, though it seemed longer. His policy of reducing car usage was undermined by himself by his use of 2 Jaguar cars. Eggs were thrown at him and water poured over him, which made him all the more attractive to his secretary with whom he had a two year affair. He was also attractive to TQR, who picked him as a sub. They draw Q Diamonds for 12 added points. Leaderboard updated.

Aye, he was more known for drumming for Amen Corner, being an official member and part of their UK hits. Not really an official Bee Gee I'd say, rather than Colin Petersen who definitely was an official member.

Cannot find anything age related on Geoff Bridgford from my usual sources. He pops up mid-60s with Steve And The Board - Melbourne based band I believe and their successor band Tin Tin. I know he has a FB page - nothing there? If I had to guess, I'd say born late 1940s. Perhaps something can be unearthed for him. I think he's married to Australian singer songwriter Kim O'Leary for whom there is little historical fact, but she also has the FB page.
