    Terrorists & Topical Terrorist Targets

    Al-Shishani was definitely dead. The problem was that one side said he died on one date in one place and the other side stated a different place and time of death, and neither account actually ended up coinciding. If ISIS confirm Baghdadi's death, time and place, that's good enough for various pools (including the Hare's/Poker). DDP though very strict on these things as it should be when they end up walking around months later.

    Did I just see they are announcing the 13th Doctor on Sunday after the Wimbledon Men's Final?

    I'd say First Asian-Am Rapper? So what? Censorship Wars in US? Unimportant to UK. Discovered Flo Rida? The guy who signed Sly And The Family Stone died recently and got no coverage. But hey, it's The Last Word...if they cover him, they cover him. Prodigy got a Times Obit with little to nothing success wise in the UK.

    One UK hit at number 90? Guess it makes him slightly more famous than Ken Hirst....

    Liu Xiaobo, Graham Rose, Tom Isaacs, Simone Veil, Ken Hirst. Short on celebrity this week.
  9. Really hope I do survive to get that list for 1984 in, in 2020. I'm only up to May and I think if the artists featured live until then, I'll have a cracking list.

    The Fringes Of Fame/family Of The Famous

    Aww, that's a shame. I remember when I met him, I went for a drink with him. Stared at me in disbelief when I told him nobody north of Watford had ever heard of him. Which was true back then.
