Windrush Generation deporter and benefit sanction killer welcomes white supremacist baby cager for a State Visit. Announcement made on St Georges Day.

Fuck, back to the bad old days of naked thievery! Changed to Norman Lear.

Le Duc Anh gets the Daily Mail treatment, so I'll have some dying days of game points please: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/afp/article-6949569/Vietnamese-ex-president-ousted-Khmer-Rouge-dies-aged-99.html

Just seen the retraction: https://twitter.com/DallasFanzine/status/1120528088838881280 That's why Twitter is just another source....and it's never done until an agent or some such confirms!

I know it doesn't count but Le Duc Anh did get a BBC Obit - in Vietnamese! https://translate.google.co.uk/translate?um=1&ie=UTF-8&hl=en&client=tw-ob&sl=auto&tl=en&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bbc.com%2Fvietnamese%2Fvietnam-48014405 I've Google translated so we can all revel in the detail....

Le Duc Anh will be a hit for me if he gets a QO: http://www.xinhuanet.com/english/2019-04/23/c_137999263.htm Not many points, but I'd like 'em!

Martin Böttcher dead: https://translate.google.co.uk/translate?hl=en&sl=de&u=https://www.welt.de/newsticker/dpa_nt/infoline_nt/boulevard_nt/article192251267/Filmkomponist-Martin-Boettcher-mit-91-Jahren-gestorben.html&prev=search

I mean, for Fay McKenzie there is this, saying she died 16 April: Obvously still awaiting some form of news obit.

Fleet Street staffer Doreen Spooner, dead at 91: https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/first-female-fleet-street-photographer-14442462

Certainly looks like him. Someone else took Chappell this year, dropped him. Now he'll have to wrestle Duncan Norvelle to replace Windsor Davies on my team for next year. Subject always to the survival of my remaining contenders....

DDP Pick Monir Farmanfarmaian, Iranian artist, dead at 96: https://www.rferl.org/a/prominent-iranian-artist-monir-farmanfarmaian-dies-at-97/29894403.html

I saw that too @Cat O'Falk. If he makes it, he'll be a regular on my Comedy Theme Team from next year. Not because he looks ill, but because he looks ill and has been on Pointless Celebrities. Kiss of death, that double!

Death Notice for actor and director Philip Grout: http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/thetimes-uk/obituary.aspx?n=phillip-grout&pid=192603974 Best known for the 1961 series Family Solicitor, with appearances in more familiar shows such as Harpers West One, The Rag Trade and Emergency-Ward 10. Seems to have been quite the theatre luvvie, but I don't know enough to stick him in that thread. Looks like he's "graduated" from Denville Hall.

Lorraine Warren QO: https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/8899837/lorraine-warren-dead-the-conjuring/

DDP Pick Keith Cass cross-post.

Keith Cass be dead: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-47990437 Was he a pick this round?

One of your DDP picks too I believe msc. Obviously sources awaited.

Lorraine Warren, pick for @Book here is being reported as dead on Twitterboard. No formal news source yet afaik.

Jim Neibaur great source for the information. So she'll be dead. Thought she'd be one for the Silent Era thread.
