Gerald Harper's the new Peter Wyngarde....

In coming up to the 61st anniversary of Oliver Hardy's death, it appears the seriously overrated Steve Coogan and the seriously underrated John C Reilly have made a biopic of Stan and Ollie. https://www.eveningexpress.co.uk/lifestyle/entertainment/steve-coogan-film-stan-and-ollie-to-close-bfi-london-film-festival/ Not sure I'd watch.

35 years ago today the other Carolyn Jones snapped her fingers and left the set for the last time, aged 53.

According to the facebook post, Mary Carlisle died at 02:28 on the morning of August 1. Assuming she died in LA, California local time.

There's loads of films where Mary Carlisle was the last survivor. Quicker to mention the ones with untraceable dead people or with someone definitely alive.

Mary Carlisle is a unique hit here: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/mary-carlisle-dead-bing-crosby-star-delightful-musicals-was-104-1085748 So It's The Natural Thing To Do to award some points!!!

Reliable source indicates that Mary Carlisle has finally died aged 104:

Irvin "Carrot" Jarrett, long time former percussionist for Third World, reportedly dead: http://jamaica-star.com/article/entertainment/20180731/former-third-world-member-irvin-carrot-jarrett-dead UK #10 (1978) Now That We Found Love: Not eligible for my TOTP team until 2021 when the re-issue hit the charts again, then in 1985 reaching #22.

Ok, so according to this, George Cunningham, former Labour MP for Islington South West and thereafter Islington South and Finsbury, died on 27 July: https://www.politicshome.com/news/organisation-page/association-former-members-parliament/43788/remembrance-departed-colleagues Yes, he was the cunt who got his amendment that at least 40% of the Scottish electorate would have to vote for devolution in the original Scottish Referendum. So fuck him.

We are at the 7 month stage.

Death Notice for Michael Lapage, British Olympic rower and Silver medallist in the eights from the 1948 Games and DDP pick, aged 94: http://announcements.telegraph.co.uk/deaths/226097/lapage

Gosh, it's a hard situation by the sounds of it. However, someone needs to know the prognosis so that plans can be made. If it's terminal as it seems to be, gotta know so you can get the help and assistance the family need. Somebody needs to be more insistent with the medics. Imo. Hope you and yours can get through this.

Ah, what hilarity we had when Sir Creep said exactly the same thing years ago!!! Which is exactly why we still have both threads....

Perennial Bibliogryphon pick Bernard Hepton has exited the stage. Leaderboard updated, no bonuses.

Hepton has gone Cold - Itz Points for one player. Actively considering updating the leaderboard now we've had some hits.
