John Dead-rich

probably no more hits but again that's what I thought this morning… so I went with Bob Dole, he can go any day now

Congrats @Perhaps ! New round opens : will there be a 20th hit in 2020 ? If so, When ? If not, When Will be the 1st hit Of 2021 ? The second question his harder to answer so if you’d like you can join the game When the 2021 list is out or you can try to guess without knowing the list (but keep in mind that Carlos Menem will probably be in it ) Good luck !

Same, I wasn’t expecting a death now, « encore moins » john Edrich... Didn’t know who he was honestly, don’t think he will get any obit in France but RIP and well Done to the commitee ! Now My reign is over in the « how many hits this year » but I don’t care, I prefer that ! I would really like another hit before the end of the month, just to have 20/50 in 2020 but maybe it’s too much to ask for

??

Every fucking Time this thread pops up I think I may read « Boris Pahor’s dead » but the guy keeps holding on at 107 and survived some great authors who died this year (Mary Higgins Clark, Stanley Crouch, Jan Morris, John le Carré...)

All in heaven now

I don’t agree with that... bardot is the only one on the Same level as Delon. Michel Bouquet is on the Same level as Claude Brasseur but if you ask anyone in France there’s a good chance that they don’t know who is Presle...

Honestly he was a huge one, on the same level as Jean Rochefort or Bernard Blier. One of the last french giant with Delon and Belmondo, it really is a huge thing in France

Yeah, we’re in the topic « foreign personnalities » so obviously this is not a huge one in UK. What’s the point in correcting everyone all the time ?

Totally agree with all your list ! Forgot about Sepulveda and Von Sydow deaths at thé beginning of the year, I feel like it was another year...

what ? till today his wiki page didn't include his date of death, even if his "grand-son" or whoever tries to add changes about it so worth a mention imo

And now his wiki page confirms it, RIP https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_Marion_Davis

Little richard for may and maradonna for november and I agree with you

Derek Fowlds rather than Kobe Bryant ? Caroline Flack rather than Kirk Douglas ? Peter Sutcliffe rather than Maradonna ? Windsor rather than D’estaing ? Really ?

Thought I could create a poll for this new game. Here is a list of 20 prominent figures who all turned 90 this year (born in 1930). According to you, who are the ones who could reach their 100 birthday ? Only time will tell… Of course I could have add some other names but I only chose to put the major ones and only people born in 1930, don't know why but it's easier to compare. Good luck and let me tell you what you think.

I have some troubles making my shadow list this year : I have too many people that I want to add and I can’t make a choice, I’m sure I’m gonna miss some hits and regret it later...

French actress Caroline Celier dead at 75, quite shocking honestly, one of the most famous french actress Who won a cesar, rest in peace... https://www.lemonde.fr/disparitions/article/2020/12/16/l-actrice-caroline-cellier-est-morte_6063568_3382.html

Couldn’t agree more, never heard of the Nolans, Linda’s death would barely be reported in France...

Completely forgot about the Pinter Wonderland but a great one !!

Ford fiesta was a good one and Hepburn’s one deserves a honorable mention !

Le Pen’s french toast was already used for Jacques Chirac last year if I remember well... I would propose : - Deathlist less Leslie for Leslie Phillips - Bob Down for Bob Dole - Betty turns grey for Betty White btw which are your favorites on previous list ? My top 3 are « Deathlist Scores with Dead-lee accuracy » (Stan Lee, 2018), « It’s Rainer but it doesn’t pour » (Luise Rainer, 2014) and « A DeathList in need has a friend in Deedes« (Bill Deedes, 2007)

People have nothing else to do ? A shame, it could have been a Day which took Don Marion Davis and Carmen Marsh Doll
