So now Tommy Kirk is dead, is that it for SFR? I mean I haven't checked...yet. Edit: Confirmed I'd have thought.

One of the categories on today's Pointless final - Sidney Poitier films. Foreshadowing?

Maybe update the 1970's entry for Barry Ryan as well @Ulitzer95 found here: https://forums.deathlist.net/topic/9916-uk-singles-chart/?do=findComment&comment=454074

November 1968 #2 Eloise Also a major visitor to the UK charts with his twin Paul (died November 1992), several solo hits followed.

Barry Ryan, pop star who hit #2 in the UK with Eloise, reported dead by Cat Stevens:

Bit part actor (and drag queen?) Vin Welch, father of Denise Welch, dies: https://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-news/breaking-denise-welch-heartbroken-dad-25095588 Auf Wiedersehen, Pet, Corrie, Emmerdale, Heartbeat - make up your own jokes. Oft in the Loose Women audience.

Finished 8th in the Grand Final with Anytime You Need. You know how plastic bags and bits of loo roll find their way onto trees? It's that one. Terry Wogan made a rather unfortunate reference to a Red Indian in commentary.

Anybody want to look into rumours that Joan Howard Maurer, actress and author who happened to be Moe Howard's (The Three Stooges) daughter, has died? Might be more on FB than there is on Twitter.

Darrell Bath, founder member of The Crybabys and sometime guitarist/songwriter with The Vibrators, UK Subs, Dogs D'Amour, apparently dead:

Robin Mayhew reportedly dead: Bowie's sound engineer on Ziggy Stardust; Pure Mania for The Vibrators; engineered for Blondie and The Stranglers. Anyone know what happened to Tony Finch as per above?

Adam Ant and Marco Pirroni for Stand And Deliver and Prince Charming. Amazing what you read on the loo.

There were so many hitmaking machines back in the day, hard to list them all beyond the Original Post here. Lost interest in the charts in the late 1990s so need to ask some of our younger poppers. No point in making a Wiki page, I'd imagine, given the ravages of admins there at the mo.

Stuck him on as an afterthought, you may be right!

4 DDP Teams kept the faith, the Poker entrants kept their faith with Marsha.

Off the top of my head: 1970s/80s Lennon McCartney Gary Glitter (with the late Mike Leander) Noddy Holder and Jim Lea Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus Bee Gees (must have done, surely given who else they wrote for) Chris Stein (Blondie) Sting Paul Weller Andy Hill for Bucks Fizz Holly Johnson and other members of Frankie Goes To Hollywood The late George Michael Madonna Stock Aitken and Waterman Phil Collins Haven't even looked at the 1960s - there will be plenty there I'd imagine.

Andrea Martin, singer-songwriter reportedly dead aged 49: Hits in the UK include En Vogue's Don't Let Go (Love), Blu Cantrell Ft Sean Paul's Breathe and Leona Lewis' Better In Time.

Ryan Sakoda reportedly dead: https://wrestletalk.com/news/former-wwe-star-sakoda-passes-away-aged-46/ IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1579417/ Apparently as long ago as 2 September!

Just popping this here.

Martin Burleigh, former keeper for Newcastle, Darlington, Carlisle and Hartlepool, being reported dead aged 70:

Well, that should make him easier to hate..... Steve Coogan - so many comedy roles over the decades - Paul and Pauline Calf, Alan Partridge....erm, that's it. Oft said in my house he's overrated.

Also, it might be an idea to use the Find A Will site for dates of death for those others not updated if they can be found. Just if you are contacting IMDB....

Precisely because I saw the Wills thing last year, but could not be absolutely sure - Twitter was alive with folk admiring her longevity until late into 2020! Plus, well, a fresh intake of hopefully uniques!

Now we know my DDP pick Patricia Driscoll from last year is dead, perhaps here is the date of death under Patricia Lamont - 2 January 2020? https://probatesearch.service.gov.uk/Wills?surname=lamont&yearOfDeath=2020&advancedSearch=False&IsGrantSearch=True#wills

Yegor Ligachev (aka Ligachyov) is one for the List Of The Lost as well, died 7 May: http://www.derbydeadpool.co.uk/deadpool2021/celebs_L.html#ligacy

Although not on the Band Aid single, let's enjoy once again that opening of Live Aid with Status Quo in memory of Alan Lancaster who has died: Maybe this could be expanded to Live Aid as well - all part of the deal.
