Heartbeat TV also deleted their tweet. Probably a hoax or tied into Bruce Montague's recent passing, but I did find it hard to believe until the now deleted tweet turned up. Long live Jo...until the inevitable.

Josephine Tewson being tentatively reported dead, but awaiting a newspaper report:

I think so. Only fair that my posting of the death of another famous Scot should lead me to semi-retirement. (Note: if Sir Cunto replies to this my wish is he be perma-banned ).

Done an Elvis 12 months too early?

I aimed that quoted comment quite clearly at Sir Creep. Applies to a select few though.

You've not been paying attention. When someone on here claims points for a death, it's all about them. When someone posts their hits on their Shadow List, it's all about them. When someone on here reviews their DDP standings, it's all about them. When someone moans about the ability of the Committee to miss the obvious picks they would have picked, it's all about them. When someone has to troll another member while contributing nothing to the site, it's all about them. When someone has a disaster on the Inverse pool, it's all about them. And in your case, the only way to get an erection is to criticise others and get your post count up. Fortunately, I don't have long to listen to much more of the shite on here. Good day sir.

Searched and couldn't find anything. Scottish actor Alec Heggie, played a lot of policemen and was also Lachie McIvor in Take The High Road, died back on 2 July aged 78: https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/alec-heggie-obituary-kr0g7zgcz Taggart and Rab C Nesbitt for the UK viewers, otherwise lot of Scottish stuff. RIP.

Wondered where I'd heard of Vesa-Matti Loiri before. Finished in last place in the 1980 Eurovision with Huilumies:

Hmm, let me think...gcr seemed to be looking for assistance on Dozier. I mean, I could be one of those who just says "fuck it, the DDP is a mess, and I'll moan about it". However, I think that @Death Impends; @gcreptile and @Grim Up North are incredibly splendid and competent people who are more than capable of sorting stuff out, but even the best of us need a little assistance sometimes. For example, do you prefer the Theme Team League being updated and interesting obits on the DDP, or do you want them spending all their time raking through years of entries to find a List of the Lost? Also, I think it took 2 minutes just to check and post this morning. Being a good and helpful person lost it's value in the social media "everyone's a bastard as long as I'm all right Jack" era.
