The brilliant Jeanne Mockford seems to have left us:

43 today! And I don't mean milligrams over the legal limit!

Mods about to move all posts about Le Duc to the Pilots thread.....

I don't own an anorak.

Bluthal's QO: https://metro.co.uk/2018/11/17/john-bluthal-who-played-frank-in-vicar-of-dibley-dies-aged-89-8150576/

Now at only 8 hits with Richard Baker's demise. Lawdy.

Five pounds please Committee! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-46246049 Or some DL Boxers in lieu....

Biblio on a roll with Richard Baker: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-46246049

Horrid news, my face of the news for years. Now I'm off to find my post where I said the Committee should pick him.

According to this John Bluthal is a hit for me: https://tvtonight.com.au/2018/11/vale-john-bluthal.html Edit: https://metro.co.uk/2018/11/17/john-bluthal-who-played-frank-in-vicar-of-dibley-dies-aged-89-8150576/

Not sure how reliable the source is, but it does look fairly cast iron. John Bluthal has reportedly died: https://tvtonight.com.au/2018/11/vale-john-bluthal.html Q with Spike Milligan, Help with The Beatles, Benny Hill, Kenny Everett, etc etc. Not just a Pickle. If this is true, this is sad news. Also a pick for me in the Hares Pool.

Good grief, what are the tariffs likely to be? Drugs will end up being too expensive. 10 years time - "yes, my kids still can't afford their own house and they're in their 40s. And we haven't been able to afford to buy some sick weed to make their living here bearable!"

Didn't give my grandkids a second thought, surprisingly enough!

Ha, so by accident, I picked someone who went before your guy!

Was I right about William Goldman then, @drol? https://deadline.com/2018/11/william-goldman-dies-oscar-writer-butch-cassidy-and-the-sundance-kid-all-the-presidents-men-1202503283/

Yikes! Well, seeing as someone has quoted it and I have seen it... My vote to leave was based on a few things. Ever closer political union? No thanks, I want my Parliament close and making the rules, makes them more accountable. European Central Bank? No thanks, dimunition of the Bank of England, and the financial services sector heave and haul up and go to Europe anyway. UK outwith that don't end up paying for the privilege of losing the financial institutions. European Army? No thanks, I want my army made here and not reliant on a humming and hawing of Euro Bureaucrats deciding when and if we intervene in conflict - again, accountability of those elected by us. Possibility of losing our place on the Security Council (but that's an aside, why we think we are still a world power is beyond me anyway). Christ we are not armied up anyway, shake that magic money tree, Tezza. And then of course there are the more personal reasons. David Cameron was always a cunt, showed his true colours when he fucked off as soon as he lost the vote. Wasn't voting for his side. And then of course a UK out vote it would re-ignite the calls for Scottish Independence, because anyone who didn't predict Scotland would vote to remain and England would vote to leave was obviously living in a dream world. Ha! I actually have no problem with Single Market and Customs Union. So many reasons, as evidenced by the above discussion, for different people. Ho hum.

Gove not resigning. Quite clearly only interested in fishing and the withdrawal agreement is a complete and utter fudge on that (hence Mundell staying also). Commentators comparing May's "sad last days" with Thatcher. Shame that. Quite clearly Thatcher was a megalomaniac control freak who you could at least have some sneaking respect for being a total and utter leader. May is not even in the category of Eden or Douglas-Home in sheer incompetence.

This has escalated quickly! Correct in every detail MPFC.

Vile is the new nice in Brexit Britain....

Figure of 51B was mentioned on the BBC. *and yes even at my age I'm a spunk factory*

Kim Porter, model, actress, P Diddy's ex; dead. http://www.tmz.com/2018/11/15/kim-porter-dead-dies-diddy-puff-daddy-ex-girlfriend/

51 Billion now. Minimum. Looking more and more like an EU ++++ deal.

86 today!

Reports that Morten Grunwald is dead before the above was posted. Hmm.
