    Looks pretty good. Is there any evidence that Kilmer is ill again? I know cancer recurrences are common but I thought he was in remission for a while. Otherwise a solid list, I can count 15 or so picks that are pretty certain to be hits.

  2. I feel like late December/early January deaths are especially common. It's flu/covid season and that gets more dangerous as the elderly get older. My great grandmother died around this time about ten years ago, and my grandfather died one week into January.

    She has just been unmasked on the British Masked Singer. Filmed in October I think. Walked slowly but able to do so and obliviously fit enough back then to fly to London and perform. 

     

    She seems pretty healthy for an 83 year old. Still, hadn't seen her in a wheelchair until recently but upon googling recent pics, she's been using one for a bit now.

    She still performs, as far as I'm aware, and was making new music just a couple years ago.

    Thanks for the entry.

     

    Joseph DeAngelo is disallowed under the "Famous for being a criminal" rule. I am sure he is quite a high profile killer in the US, having no less than 3 nicknames. However my wife is the barometer when it comes to criminal fame, and she has never heard of him, so he is out. James Baker moves up to the main team.

     

    A note to all players. My wife hates all True Crime programmes and books, so the chances of her having heard of a criminal are pretty slim. There is a very high bar to clear for a criminal to be allowed. 

     

    I appreciate the notice. Thought it was worth a try haha. I'm American and he's quite infamous here but I found a lot of UK articles about him too.

  9. My record is 20 from 2021, but so far I'm at 16 - a respectable showing, especially compared to only 10 from last year.
