    British Character Actors

    June 12, 1926 (age 86) is the info I was able to find Could have sworn she had her own thread. Anyway, someone seems to have discovered that she died in October 2016: http://www.britmovie.co.uk/forums/obituaries/120223-zara-nutley-r-i-p.html DDP pick. Anyone have any further information? She was one of your own picks. I know. Hopefully like Valerie Lush, she will get a belated obit. Formidable actress.

    The Generation Game

    Jimmy Young is the second hit and the second Jimmy on my list. Maybe I'll just pick people called Jimmy for all my pools next year.

    A Famous Belgian

    Belgian cartoonist Marc Sleen, famous for The Adventures Of Nero & Co, has died aged 93. https://translate.google.co.uk/translate?hl=en&sl=nl&u=http://www.hln.be/hln/nl/38442/Marc-Sleen-overleden/article/detail/2964192/2016/11/07/Geestelijke-vader-van-Nero-Marc-Sleen-93-overleden.dhtml&prev=search DDP pick.

    Donald J Trump

    I'm guessing a Hillary supporter isn't ready for trump to win, so they tried to prevent it. It was a non-violent, unarmed Republican, who was carrying a sign "Republicans Against Trump" Non-violent Republicans will be locked up under Trump....he he.

    I've a pal who has used one for years. I would ask him, but ironically, I haven't heard from him in months.

    Express Obit: http://www.express.co.uk/news/obituaries/729243/Kay-Starr-obituary-American-pop-singer Shoddy lazy work from the BBC. They have had several of the same minor stories up for three days on their North America news pages, so they can't claim that bigger stories crowded this out. I agree, Guardian has an obit up now too.

    Bloody Fireworks!

    Well it's that time of year again. Time to prepare for all the sad stories of injuries and deaths caused by these crazy inventions. On the bright side, celebrities attend these sort of events, so we might get one or two this year. Meantime, which celebrity would you put on the pyre this year? *Re-edited*.

    The Hare's Death Pool

    Ok Listers, I've done some working out based on the masterlist (I have details if anyone has a query with their scores). Those marked with a (*) have used their joker, so one of the lower placed teams might just come from nowhere if they hit between now and the end of the year. gcreptile - 1330 Points; 10/25 Toast - 1207 Points; 11/25 (*)The Unknown Man - 1095 Points; 9/25 Maryportfuncity - 1073 Points; 8/25 (*)Captain Chorizo - 1052 Points; 9/25 (*)Book - 840 Points; 6/25 (*)Rotten Ali - 807 Points; 8/25 (*)Morbidkid - 744 Points; 7/25 (*)Sir Creep - 739 Points; 9/25 Death Impends - 703 Points; 7/25 msc - 680 Points: 7/25 Jiroemon Kimura - 672 Points; 5/25 Switch - 521 Points; 5/25 (*)Whoam - 510 Points; 5/25 Shaun Of The Dead - 414 Points; 4/25 YoungWillz - 383 Points; 3/25 Bibliogryphon - 228 Points; 2/25 **Edited 8 November 2016.
