    Shimon Peres

    doctors have decided not to operate as it was 'unlikely to improve his condition'. Doesn't look good at all http://www.i24news.tv/en/news/israel/society/125317-160913-former-israeli-president-peres-hospitalized-with-brain-related-event

    Shimon Peres

    sadly i think we're talking hours rather than days ...http://www.jewishpress.com/news/breaking-news/former-president-shimon-peres-in-icu-on-respirator/2016/09/14/ heres a quote 'Reporting on site from the hospital, Israel’s Channel 2 television news reported that the stroke was “serious” and “significant.” The 93-year-old elder statesman is since reported in critical condition.'' There's no doubt that Peres funeral will be a major state occasion with many world leaders inc former US presidents attending !He is one of the most significant figures in Israeli history

    Shimon Peres

    his condition has worsened in the last few hours. he is now said to be gravely ill in intensive care http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-37356235 reading between the lines it looks like his family may have to decide whether or not to tun off the life support machine or not let's just hope they don't want to prolong his suffering like Ariel Sharons sons did !

    Former Israeli PM, stroke. I give him about 8 more years. I doubt it. it looks bad. he's in a serious condition on a respirator just heard he's in an induced coma. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/reuters/article-3787792/Doctors-Israels-Peres-induced-coma-stroke.html at 93 can't see him coming back from that. it's Ariel Sharon all over again !

    Thoughts On The 2016 List

    If ZsaZsa Gabor goes I think the dam will burst and we'll have at least half a dozen hits by years end.She won't die though ​

    Bhumibol Adulyadej

    Vera Lynn

    you'll have to put up with a lot of that for her 100th birthday next year anyway so if she goes before then we'd be killing 2 bluebirds with one stone , as it were

    Steve Irwin

    Can't believe it's already 10 years since he was killed by that evil stingray.Does anyone happen to know if it was ever captured or killed ?

    British Science Fiction Series

    Don't know if anyone has reported this but apparantely the actor Michael Percival died a few months back. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0672888/.I only know because I was listening to a new commentary track for the Dr Who story Remebrance of the Daleks with his friend the actor Simon Williams.He was in the 2010 story Vampires of Venice

    Political Frailty

    Several unoffficial reports now stating he is dead. His daughter confirmed earlier today that he did have a brain haemorrhage. Fergananews, which initially reported on his hospitalization, is also reporting the same. If true, good news is that a tyrant is gone, bad news is that this will leave a huge power vacuum and maybe a bad outcome. Vladimir Putin will probably just annexe Uzbekistan into the Russian federation. It'll be a seamless transition to a new dictatorship

    Gene Wilder

    He looked like an 83 year old. It didn't mean he was about to die.Well it did, it just so happens, but it didn't have to, if you see what I mean ...

    Leslie Phillips

    I must say I'm surprised to see him make an appearance again after all this time.I had assumed we would never see him again and that he was probably at deaths door.Maybe should take him off next years list judging by that pic!

    it seems the oldest person in the world is 171-year-old James Olofintuyi from Nigeria if you go with unverified birth certificates. I prefer to go with the verified ones.
