Steve

@Perhaps I am genuinely sorry to hear your news. I hope your meeting with your grandad tomorrow goes ok for you. Huge credit to you also for accepting the heavy responsibility that you are now going have to undertake too.

I totally agree with you @Bibliogryphon I am anticipating a deluge of DL hits in the second half of the year plus a new DDP record

Efrain Goldenberg please, thank you for hosting @diego

How about Sven-Goran Eriksson for form guide 18?

Already form guide 10

@drol have you decided whether you are going to run another pool for this again? I am sure I am speaking for the other members too when I say this but I really hope you do and I will definitely play regularly.

@CaptainChorizo I believe I get 200 points following the death of Alice Munro. As this is the first time I have played in this pool I am happy to receive my first points

I am on the side of @Gooseberry Crumble as can also add Ian Lavender, Michael Jayston, Carl Weathers, M Emmet Walsh, Louis Gossett Jr, Don Murray, Joe Kinnear, Steve Wright, Annie Nightingale, Mike Pinder!

Congratulations to @gcreptile for your victory and also congrats to @Perhaps and @Book for securing your places on the podium

According to IMDb Donald Elson died on 7th May 2022.

If she is after loyalty rewards for attending the hospital she surely must have them in abundance by now!!!!

I too am getting strong gut feelings of a huge deluge of notable/famous deaths on the horizon in the coming weeks. I can't say for certain it will be for the official DL but do feel we are about to hear of some big name deaths.

@mymango I have stayed silent long enough but you really are an irritating moron. @TQR, @Ulitzer95 and so many others on here are incredibly insightful and do a tremendous job for this forum. You should take you and your facepalms elsewhere and let genuine people carry on enjoying this website how it is intended to be enjoyed.

I have two hits now with Josip Manolic and Frank Field

Frank Field is hit number 6 for me.

Congrats to @Azrael for Terry Carter

Is our fellow deadpooler Thatcher ok? Not been on here since 13th April

@Gooseberry Crumble are you getting any feelings currently?

Congratulations @TQR and @drol if you do decide to run a new game I will play along too no matter how long I have to wait for my pick to die

Robert R. Holt is a hit for @Pop_Zeus I believe.

I will go for either a Thatcher or tracy golden death announcement!!!!

Just been watching an episode of the TV miniseries War and Remembrance from 1989. Two actors in that episode I had forgotten about and were surprised to find were still alive are: Milton Johns (who played Eichmann in W&R and Brendan Scott in Coronation Street) is 86 this year and Kenneth Colley, 87 in December, played SS Standartenfuhrer Paul Blobel in W&R and also featured in a couple of Star Wars films.

I, personally am still anticipating great things from this list as there are way too many sick/low hanging fruit candidates to not achieve a very good total. I still think we are going to have a few shocks along the way too away from the official DL and the the DDP will score a very high dead body count. But if I am wrong, which of course I could be then I too echo the comments of @Lafaucheuse that 2025 will be the ultimate bloodbath.
