Post here that Mitchell Ryan may have died (after Hal Holbrook of course): Obviously Lethal Weapon as well, also appeared in Star Trek TNG as Will Ryker's father, but not a pick in the current Scavvy Hunt. Voiced Greg's father on Dharma And Greg. Any news on the Book of Face to back up this Dark Shadows' fanpost? IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0752751/ IBDB: https://www.ibdb.com/broadway-cast-staff/mitchell-ryan-80871 Never seemingly picked for the DDP.

Hadlee for the triumvirate?

Sadly, you don't understand at all.

If true, and reported widely in the red tops already, Shane Warne last picked for the DDP in 2016 so @Death Impends List of the Missed: http://www.derbydeadpool.co.uk/deadpool2016/celebs_W.html#warnes

Welsh cyclist who competed in the individual road race for GB at the 1964 Olympics, Colin Lewis, reportedly dead aged 79: He was the last Welshman to compete in the Tour De France in 1968 until Geraint Thomas turned up in 2007.

So ingrained is this teaching I would say, which probably lead to the BBC announcer just before half nine this morning talking about the attack on the Ukrainian power plant by...... Germany. I left the room, I'm assuming that was quickly corrected.

Maybe I'm just too educated. Quite clearly the attack on a nuclear power plant which was what was being reported at the time was utter nonsense. Maybe not in the way the masses would use the word - but then I'm not an MP and don't have to be careful about what I say. Still happy to attack a politician on that basis though if it ever comes up.

Labour seem to have held Birmingham Erdington. I think I heard a majority of just over 3,000. It's all got lost in the Ukraine nonsense.

Lovely pictures of the attack on Sky News, showing the fire breaking out. Radiation, radiation, that's what we need....

Sure you don't mean Maorijuana? (see what I did there?). I've often wondered when I watch game shows that folk are seriously undereducated about their history. I know the houses of royalty, the members of it, the Act of Union, the East India Company, the Industrial Revolution....we did a massive sweep and it was all terribly interesting. I cannot think of anything more dull than the annexation of the Sudetenland up to Yalta and VE Day. We were of course aware of the war, but it wasn't something we were taught - we had a more social history syllabus, which we climbed on board and rode all the way to Higher passes.

Were you taught about the Second World War? I wasn't. NOT AT ALL. And does it really need to be taught, with the History Channel and Yesterday giving us a Nazi nuance every 5 minutes? I guess there's a whole lot of history, if schools want to focus on a tiny teeny wee part of it, that's fine.

Tony Walton was a DDP Pick in 2017 @Death Impends, so List of the Missed: http://www.derbydeadpool.co.uk/deadpool2017/celebs_W.html#waltt0

First time I've seen this sort of thing not go in the Dead According To Wiki thread. Totally unsourced, should be removed until news there is.

Report of the death of Frank Connor, goalie for various Scottish and NI teams and former Assistant manager at Hearts and Celtic, and briefly caretaker at Celtic, aged 86: https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/17832432/celtic-player-coach-caretaker-frank-connor-dead-2/

I completely blame Canada. South Park affects my judgement on all things.

On your first response - I think Russia has been foolish here. They could have gone round or ignored the Russian heavy areas of Ukraine and concentrated their fire on other areas more supportive of Zelenskyy. As to your second point:

Things I don't understand. Fiercest shelling and fighting in Mariupol and Kharkiv, essentially the most Russian speaking parts of Ukraine after the annexed and separatist areas. Why does Putin murder civilians (including children) mercilessly in the areas he is most likely to have support in the event of a takeover? Also, I tried sleeping on this but I'm just going to get it out. Our UK Government Ministers speak in almost hallowed terms about the rampant inflation and 20% interest rates in Russia, along withthe collapse in banking shares and the value of the rouble, impacting most heavily on the Russian people. Yet when Bawjaws was asked about returning donations to the Tory party perhaps being given back or away to charity, he said at PMQs that this "wasn't about the Russian people". Well of course, it's about the worst off Russian people, not the wealthy ones that line your pockets, Bawjaws.

Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries openly snickering as she announces Russian ban from Eurovision in the Commons. I'll say again, the gravitas of the front bench is shite. Listen love, should have ironed that blouse you obviously slept in last night.

Done it myself buddy, we've all been there.

Or the Film Producers thread. Or the Academy Award Winners Thread? Sweet Baby Jesus, Joy Of Man's Desiring... (My 2022 Cunto post).

WTF is Alan Ladd Jr doing in this thread? Edit: (Moved from Fringes Of Fame thread by mods).
