    Curse Of The Eurovision

    Sad news. Coincidentally, just last month there was a story on the BBC on Patricia Bredin: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-humber-36289392 Edit: One DDP team await a qo, which is possible as Corry presented the 1976 show which was won by the UK.

    I've got Len Maddocks as well so unlikely to be a unique hit if ro has him too. Otherwise looks like my picks are listed.

    British Science Fiction Series

    The Summer 2016 edition of Equity Magazine is out and available online here: http://www.equity.org.uk/documents/equity-summer-2016-magazine/ In Memoriam section on page 16 as usual. You might want to check it, but I've been through it and found little of interest outside the more noteworthy deaths we already know about. Of note in this topic in respect of Doctor Who are mentions of the deaths of Ian East and Terence Woodfield, both of whom had non-speaking roles in The Dalek's Master Plan as Celation. Terence Woodfield however went on to have a much larger role as Maharis in The Ark (not The Ark In Space). Ian East's only other major role appears to have been Maurice Wrigley in The Nearly Man (1975), with casual appearances in Z Cars, The Bill, EastEnders, Holby City and Crown Court and others. Terence Woodfield for this topic also had roles in The Avengers and The Tomorrow People, with other appearances in Z Cars (was every 60's actor in this?), Robert's Robots, Get Some In! and The Fall And Rise Of Reginald Perrin among others. Sadly, I've been unable to trace specific obituaries for either gentleman.

    The dead of 2016

    Jimmy Borges, Hawaiian personality who made appearances in Hawaii Five-O, Magnum PI and The Rockford Files, has died aged 80 from cancer. http://www.staradvertiser.com/breaking-news/hawaii-entertainer-jimmy-borges-dies/ gcreptile had him in Shaun's DP, however I haven't seen a qualifying obit for that pool yet. Likewise JiroemonKimura appears to have him the Hare's DP.

    The Archers

    I thought the name was familiar but it turns out its because it was mentioned in this thread several times. Yeah so many times I didn't want to play favourites by quoting any single one.

    Sahra Wagenknecht, a German MP who called for a limit on the number of immigrants to the country, had a chocolate cake shoved in her face. None of the parties involved, including the cake, came from the Black Forest.
