King: So you told mummy you couldn't muster the support of the Commons a few months ago? BJ: I did not. King: Why did you see mummy? BJ: Because my party wanted me out. King: So why are you here? BJ: My party wants me back. King: Can you muster the support of the Commons? BJ: I can have a go... King: Fuck off Boris. -

I think there are three obvious contenders for the four top spots in this round. My eyebrows will disappear into my heavily receded hairline if they aren't. But I'm not going to influence the voting. Some years the best songs didn't get to the top spot, mind. -

Benny Hill has lost a point in the editing too, though I'm sure the poster is still editing. Just in case that is missed - should be on 19. -

For the first three weeks of 1970 Rolf Harris' Two Little Boys was #1. Not seeing it...? -

Jess Phillips and Rachel Johnson on Question Time tonight. Note it seems to be on at 8pm. Should be fun. -
Well well well, taking soundings about standing for PM. Surprising nobody.

Stuart Hall. -
Nothing humble about him, ha! Love a bit of speculation...hasta la vista not sounding so stupid as it did on the floor of the House.

Didn't cut his holidays short for any of the crap the country faced since 2019. Will he be on a plane from his current vacation by the end of the night to return in glory to the First Lord of the Treasuryship? Oh, the humanity...

From the party that says the SNP can't keep having referendums until they get the result they want. the Tories bring you another leadership election until they get the leader they want. Politics, huh? -
All hail the prediction! Buying a lottery ticket tonight...

Probably another hoax, I mean, nearly a year since the last one, so here we go again with Jimmy Millar: I'm sure if it's true we'll hear about it.

I simply do not care which part of the Tory party needs appeased. Which chancer will ascend the highest offices in this country. How sad they all are at their colleagues' treatment at the hands of the whips. I want them to get on with governing, producing policies and a direction of travel so that people don't (as they always have done) die unnecessarily, freeze, starve or be cheated out of the rewards they were promised by working hard and paying their taxes. This continual wanking into each other's eyes isn't helping the electorate. -

Sorry I'm a bit crap at this, done this piecemeal. So the Space 1999 website said she moved to France in the 1990s. So I found this: https://www-acte--deces-fr.translate.goog/acte-de-deces-hucqueliers?_x_tr_sl=fr&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=sc Jan Rennison (Jan Virginia Rennison) born Feb 25, 1945, died 30 January 2020. To have probate granted in the UK, she probably had property here. Voila!
-
I'm having a look around, it's possible Jan Rennison was the Australian entrant for the 1965 Miss World competition, certainly looks like the same girl: https://www.gettyimages.co.uk/detail/news-photo/leaving-for-the-miss-world-beauty-contest-held-in-london-news-photo/1078931612 If so, she was 20 in that year, so born around 1945 and died aged 74/75? Edit: the Space 1999 site gives a dob of 1947 but confirming she is the same lassie: https://catacombs.space1999.net/main/crguide/vcgar.html Yep definitely dead @whoismakoto
-
There's a probate grant on 19 September 2020 for a Jan Virginia Rennison who died 30 January 2020. Unfortunately, I can't seem to link the results page from this site any more. RENNISON JAN VIRGINIA 30 January 2020 19 September 2020 1597656438448371 PROBATE Principal Registry
