YoungWillz

There's nothing like an old one! Great Uncle Bulgaria is the only player to score with the world's oldest woman! (Meant in a purely gameplay sort of way, nothing to see here). Maria Branyas Morera disappears from view, but hurtling up the leaderboard comes our most important Womble. With their first proper hit, they play an Ace, meaning a bonus of 5 points. Well done! Leaderboard updated.

John Clegg QO: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-13761121/It-Aint-Half-Hot-Mum-actor-John-Clegg-dies-aged-90-tributes-pour-beloved-BBC-star.html

Death notice for John Clegg, Gunner La Di Da Graham and Paderewski of the It Ain't Half Hot Mum troupe, aged 90: https://announcements.telegraph.co.uk/marketplace/advert/clegg-notices_58462 DDP pick. Been watching the series, now over half the regular cast are dead. RIP John, an inspiration to a young YoungWillz.

Bill Cosby please.

Two players had Alain Delon here.

Congratulations @The Daredevil

Patricia Carr, who worked in various production capacities on the original trilogy, reportedly dead: And also obviously on the Indiana Jones films, and co-produced Fierce Creatures and The Mummy.

As RetroGamer47 has pointed out, in between me updating the leaderboard and this, Afa Anoa'i has begone. A totally Wild double unique in 2 days, making them the ladyfiona of this month so far. Wrestles their way to sidle alongside yours truly on the board. No bonuses.

C'est vrai. Georges Berthoin dead: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/obituaries/2024/08/15/georges-berthoin-europe-union-unofficial-ambassador-london/

Hollywood Squares host Peter Marshall has headed for the Beverly Hills! (This death essentially rules the 98 year old out of the LA Olympics in 2028). A solo hit for RetroGamer47 pulls them out of the bottom pack with their first hit. No bonuses, leaderboard updated.

Allan Kell, player for Darlington and non-league Spennymoor, reportedly dead:

Gena Rowlands has headed for her 77 Sunset Strip. A Woman Under The Influence of Alzheimers, but also aged a mere 94, she was dropped into The Notebook for Perhaps and Grimgrass and rewards them with a Bonanza of points. The Leaderboard has been updated, no bonuses.

Barry Lategan, South African born photographer credited with discovering Twiggy, reportedly dead:

DDP pick Gerald Ridsdale, who has been coughing to abusing kids from prison for what seems like forever, admits more offences: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13741435/Gerald-ridsdale-paedophile-priest-admits-child-sex-offences-prison.html

This is what I have. Apart from "gotta catch them all", I have no idea about this series at all. I will set up a Poke Booth though, for a special session of mourning in the bar.

Timothy Dudley-Smith QO: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/obituaries/2024/08/13/timothy-dudley-smith-tell-out-my-soul-norwich-church/

Timothy Dudley-Smith gone to check in with his scripture writer: https://www.e-n.org.uk/uk-news/timothy-dudley-smith-dies/ DDP pick.

Rachael Lillis has gone! We can all get a bit Misty when our picks pass away, but who knows how gcreptile is feeling as the only person to pick her, as they Jigglypuff their way up the board. Ash to Ash as they might have never said in Pokemon. Leaderboard updated, no bonuses. Still waiting on anything qualifying for Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee, but a risky pick when you haven't got Yahoo! to rely on. Anything spotted will be appreciated.

Rachael Lillis reportedly dead:

Roy Greaves, formerly of Bolton and Rochdale, reportedly dead aged 77: https://www.bwfc.co.uk/news/roy-greaves-1947-2024
