    Dead Pop Stars

    If and when further confirmed, that leaves Vera Lynn and Doris Day as the only survivors to have had a UK top ten hit in 1952... Point of order! Johnny Ray and The Four Lads had a number seven hit in 1952. Frank Busseri, one of the original Lads, breathes and still fronts the group. Hmmm, missed that one DDT! When I was compiling my own list, I must not have included what I thought were backing bands, session musicians etc. Granted I've whoopsed up there on a strict basis. My bad.

    The B B C

    It's the hot button issue, not to mention she publicly slammed one of the biggest organisations in the world, which might do a bit of damage to our economy in the future when they refuse to give us the world cup again. Two things...FIFA say it's a political symbol. May has just confirmed that it is political, the idiot. Also, the BBC making this it's headline is simply a travesty...no wonder the silly little public swallow the garbage from politicians if this is made the issue of the day.

    The B B C

    So PMQs ends. Interesting questions on benefits, etc etc. BBC News then switch to Vicky Young, Chief Political Correspondent, who wonders whether the most significant question was the one about whether football players should wear poppies. Get a f ucking grip!

    List updated and brought forward. As reported by drol, Zeldin has died aged 101. Ill health last year and a qualifying obit to boot. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/ap/article-3889066/Worlds-oldest-active-theater-actor-Zeldin-dies-101.html Sadly nobody picked him for the DDP.

    DDP Team Name Rejects

    Depends. Are you thinking of a general team, or a theme team? General. I think if you look at some of the team names, your choice is actually quite tame he he. It's your team, call it what you will...TMIB will let you know if you cross a line though. Here's one I'm not using - Uploaded To The Cloud.
