    Vera Lynn

    Any chance of her covering some of Chuck Berry's hits as a tribute? Maybe not...

    I Miss Badegg

    Not that I miss them overly, but Mugabe and William G Stewart have gone quiet. If they survive the year, I'll consider their real life counterparts for next year.

    Inverse Dead Pool 2017

    Had a look at your team. Depends, I'd say you have about at least 6 hits pending....

    Chuck Berry

    I saw an interview with him last year. He looked fit, upbeat and very much positive. He was one of those guaranteed to live, imo. Now he's gone, I fear the winner of the Inverse DP will win with a fairly high score. All is not lost...

    The Hare's Death Pool

    Former host Deathers duck walks into the podium places, and Rockhopperpenguin and Whoaml also gain from Chuck Berry's departure from the stage.

    Might as well Chuck my chances in the bin after Berry's demise.

    Derby Dead Pool 2017

    Oh we know, already on the round up, GP and congrats. Given the character actors ignored by the press in recent years, it's nice to know they can still obit alongside Polish conductors and anyone, and I mean anyone, who was in WW2. I'd like to think the DDP might continue on in future years, has any further thought been given to this? I'm still too new to appreciate fully the devotion that goes into this, although even I can certainly only applaud TMIB's perseverance over the time I have been doing this and can understand why he has indicated it's his last year. Also, I'd like to put on record that while I may disagree with people's picks, notability, etc, I knew when submitting my teams the rules that applied beforehand. To mine own self be true when I submit a team, as for the most part I shall be sorry to see them go, rather than see them as a positive stepping stone to victory. Everyone plays differently and within the rules. So on we go...

    Only Famous For Being Ill And Dying

    Notable that at the moment you have to go to position 17th equal to find teams who have picked people who have died who could be defined outwith FFBI.

    I Miss Badegg

    If he wins the Hare's Pool...oh my. Anyway, he might be on holiday. Or he might be working away from home. Or given up on us baby....

    Derby Dead Pool 2017

    We are not all doing it. All death is speculation. Unless they are terminal. In which case all obits are speculation.

    Oh well, apparently it's obligatory for the Hare's Pool, which is why I posted my team up front. Good to hear you are on the mend Shaun, you'll get there.

    The Great Escape

    Reports coming in that Lawrence Montaigne has died aged 86. https://twitter.com/TrekMovie/status/842933811763535872 and https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1482713958428782 Wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawrence_Montaigne IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0598807/
  23. Or in Osborne's case, both journalist and politician. (Yeah I know most MPs do some sort of column or occasional comment, but they don't normally end up doing both full time).
  24. He he, exactly. I don't know which is worse, Cameron and Tristram Hunt abandoning their constituents, or Osborne staying and devoting his time to his speaking engagements and the Standard job. It's all vile.

    Isn't it accepted though that a game runner should post their team up front? In case they are accused of stealing from entries submitted? O/wise, pm'ed to the runner, I agree.
