I am watching Mr Bates Vs The Post Office and it is a great drama. It's based on real life events as well and it gets me really annoyed because I know that a lot of the victims havn't been compensated.

Cancer is a handy thing to beat. Cheers to good health and trying to beat you in 20/20+4.

Based on Youtubers I watched around that time it sounds like something they were wearing, especially Dan and Phil. Was it an emo look? Dan and Phil 2010.

I'm posting the teams this afternoon because I feel like death warmed up and will probably have an early night. If anyone submits anything before midnight GMT they will be accepted but probably won't get reviewed until the morning.

This is based off game The Old Crem started who has given me permission to take charge of 2023 game. The game is simple. Pick 20 celebrities who will have a child in either 2023 or 2024. Rules: (Mostly the same as original rules with a couple of changes) 1. Teams have to be sent in by 31/12/2022. Please send teams to me via PM and do not post on the thread. 2. You can pick either the mother or father of the child, but the parent has to be a celebrity. 3. You score points once the celebrity, celebrity's partner, surrogate gives birth or the adoption of a baby under 8 weeks old is announced. 4. The qualifying source is either a newspaper report or a post on verified social media account belonging to the Celeb or their partner. 4. Celebrity is defined by the pick having a Wikipedia page that existed before 1st December 2022. 5. You can't pick both likely parents of the same child in the event that both mother and father count as celebrities. 6. If there is any public doubt as to the identity of the father of the child, then the pick will be 'lost'. 7. Picks must be legal (i.e. the parent must be over the age of consent in their home country) 8. No pregnancy that has been officially announced or reported in a Q/O source as a strong rumour is allowed. 9. Any pregnancy that is announced between now and the deadline will not be eligible for points and you can chose to then withdraw that celebrity and replace them (but can also keep them in case their have a second birth in 2023). 10. Each team is allowed one joker who can gain double points. 11. Additional rule - If pregnancy is announced and there is a misscarriage or still birth then player gets half points (10 points turns into 5 etc). Age of parent at time of birth: Mother: 17-30: 10 points 31-35: 15 points 36-40: 20 points 41-50: 40 points 51+: 100 points Father: 17-30: 10 points 31-40: 15 points 41-50: 20 points 51-60: 40 points 61-70: 70 points 71+: 100 points Let the predicting comence.

If nothing changes in the next 24 hours this is the scoreboard and will make @The Old Crem winner with @diego second and myself third. Congrats! As of 30th December: The Old Crem - 252.5 points (Ashleigh Barty, Princess Eugenie, Paris Hilton x2, Henry Slade, Tom Daley, Serena Williams, Kourtney Kardashian, Pixie Lott, Rebecca Adlington (miscarriage), Karim Benzema, Kalvin Phillips) Diego - 210 points (Paris Hilton x2 - Joker, Lindsay Lohan, Daniel Radcliffe, Brenda Song) LadyFiona - 155 points (Paris Hilton x2, Lindsay Lohan, Brenda Song, Jason Kenny, Tom Daley, Shane Dawson) LizLemon - 140 points (Peta Murgatroyd, Kourtney Kardashian - joker, Clare Crawley) DeathBecomesThem - 110 points (Paris Hilton x2, Jessa Seewald (miscarriage + rainbow baby), Madison Hubbell) Gooseberry Crumble - 30 points (Jordan Pickford, Feliciano Lopez) *Paris Hilton had two surrogate babies born/announced in 2023. **Jessa Seewald had a miscarriage announced early 2023, then later in the year there was a new pregnancy announcement ***Rebecca Adlington announced pregnancy but then there was a miscarriage See you in the 2024 pool where five new players join.

There is a record of 9 11 players so far for 2024 which is amazing. I'm currently sick which isn't great as I need review scoreboard for 2023, however for 2024 everything is up and ready. One player needs to give me their sub pick and they have been contacted.

As someone who has met him after he left prison but before he died. I can confirm that he is very friendly and charming.
