  1. This thread reminds me of the Ronnie Barker Spoonerisms sketch:

     

    Wife: Would you mind Mia Farrow?

    Spooner: Mia Farrow? What's she got to do with it?

    Wife: No, I mean, Find me a Marrow.

    A mere 46 years after Matthew Garber. Has any other actor outlived their screen child by a longer stretch? 

     

    She's outlived all 4 of her ex-husbands and her only child in real life.

    Good question :) 

     

    Usually when someones sub dies, I will tag them in the batch of deaths to say that their (first, second, third) sub has died. This is their chance to bring up if someone died and in practise you can give your reasoning on why they should be in your shadowlist rather than a sub.
    I won't edit your list, I prefer to keep it exactly as you gave it to me. 

     

    To give an option that you would probably prefer - If you would like for someone to be moved up and to avoid any further discussion with the sometimes difficult host of this pool, you can just respond with your full list with how you would like it to be amended (e.g. Shecky Greene was your 42nd pick, you want your first sub Donald Trump to replace them, you would put Donald Trump in their place and repost your list as a brand new comment)

     

    There's nothing automatic about my system, it's very manual and I'm sure there's a much smarter way to run a pool than the way I'm doing it.

    Maybe should have gone with Julie Andrews instead of Walters, then you'd have had a Mary Poppins theme team with Dick and Glynis.

     

    That's my entire Deaths of the Silver Screen III entry, lol!
