Hmm.... DDP contenders 2018 posted. Members decide for little to no reason to open threads for their faves... Jeez...

So anyway, I had a look. He appeared in all of the last series. So where's the evidence for this? Are they recording at the moment? Is there a link you could provide?

I'll assume his family are in bits...

Anyone who had Kamprad needs a sub...

Busy attending funerals and giving tributes to those we have lost... So the exact health issue that sparked this thread is...age?

About an hour to go...let's hope there's no major breaking news in the next 60 mins....

In fact, I'd go as far to say that Fulton had an ego bigger than his alleged "talent" should have credited him with, as for his coterie of hangers-on and peers, well...

Report from a fairly reliable source that Buzz Clifford has died, US singer who had a one hit wonder, reaching #17 in the UK in 1960 with Baby Sittin' Boogie:

He was a bit of a prick when I met him...

No offence intended, this is your baby, after all. Personally I'm rooting for Hearse of the Year Show, a name which I thought would have been used before and which I find tremendously funny.

Not really. And no. I'm just faintly amused that so much analysis goes on for a few teams, thus ruling out consideration of everyone else who has entered. I'm guessing that not every team has been gone through in some detail before arriving at these honoured few. If so, fair play. Same with JR's thread which initially ruled out the "remote" possibility that someone other than a few teams could possibly win. I'll step back now. Intriguing to watch as it develops...like a slow year long Polaroid.

Dunno, posed the question. Almost incestuous...imo

Yeah, so there are the standings above. I make that 10 teams who have yet to score. And so we move inexorably towards February, which I'm hoping will be quieter!

Went for Other...

This thread is quite..clique-y, isn't it?

I assume the crackling could do with a smidge of paprika and serve him up later at the wake with a bouquet garni broth, garnished with feta and rocket...

Note for @Handrejka ...another one from Series 3 of Pointless Celebrities. That has taken quite a tanking after Wogan, Chegwin, Nolan, Harris, etc....
