Just been told by a friend who has a friend (yes, I know!) who works in Buckingham Palace that he has died. How true it is I have no idea, but thought I'd pass along.

More than halfway to my prediction of 9 deaths, on the 5th March. I may have gone a little low...

Gotta take what you can get...

Well I'm screenshotting that table, just to prove that once upon a time I had a lead in one of these things!

Foodbank for me as well please @Sir Creep, since you're prepared to put your coffee where your mouth is it seems unfair on foodbank users not to take you up on it

1) Paul Gascoigne 2) Michael Robinson 3) Doddie Weir 4) Billy Connolly 5) Linda Nolan 6) Queen Elizabeth II 7) Henry Kissinger 8) Mikhail Gorbachev 9) Rolf Harris 10) Betty White 11) Olivia Newton-John 12) June Brown 13) Angela Lansbury 14) Chris Doleman 15) Barbara Windsor 16) Dick van Dyke 17) Leslie Phillips 18) Stirling Moss 19) Bill Turnbull 20) Susan Bayh 21) George Alagiah 22) Pat Smullen 23) Ruth Bader Ginsburg 24) Leon Spinks 25) Prunella Scales sub Bob Dole

Pfft.

Close!

It's the only way they'll learn...

1. Kirk Douglas 2. Daniel arap Moi (joker) 3. Pierre Cardin 4. Bob Barker 5. Valery Giscard d'Estaing 6. Genesis P-Orridge 7. Alex Trebek 8. Ruth Bader Ginsburg 9. Terry Jones

Well done TomTom, that's impressive. I won the unofficial, unannounced and irrelevant "predict the top 3" game, but it all went a bit pear-shaped after that

Well played drol. Happy with third place for my debut in this one, lets see if I can do better this year.

Looks like drol's going to win this one... unless 2019 has a late twist in the tail?

My list : 1) Alex Trebek (J) 2) Anne Buydens 3) Beverly Cleary 4) Bob Barker 5) Earl Cameron 6) Eileen Ash 7) Gianluca Vialli 8) Javier Perez de Cuellar 9) Jean-Louis Trintignant 10) John Hume 11) Kane Tanaka 12) Katherine Jackson 13) Kirk Douglas 14) Larry King 15) Leslie Phillips 16) Nobby Stiles 17) Noel Conway 18) Roberta McCain 19) Ruthie Tompson 20) Terry Jones subs Frank Williams, Prince Philip, Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

I've picked up four points with him, still in the top 3 though. Unfortunately (for me) drol didn't have Clive.

I go Bill... just gut feeling.

I somehow completely forgot Alagiah.

I think Banana's suggestion of 50% is a sensible compromise in keeping with the theme. Will still take a few years I imagine but not ridiculously so.

I have done exactly the same, for the same reason. After reading this post, as well. Doh.

Pretty pleased with my debut on this so far. Can it get any better? Linda Nolan, Betty White, Prunella Scales, Jimmy Carter or Vera Lynn would do it

Boom! and my joker is gone! At least it's not going to be a completely barren year! Thanks John McCririck!

Halfway through the year and a mere 20 of my team remain alive. Safe to say I'm not the best at this

All the best people have 15 points.

Mugabe for me.

Pity Sir Jim wasn't up to attending the legends game at the new Spurs stadium yesterday. If someone like Sebastian Bassong can be included as a Legend for Spurs, they need a few more levels above that for Greavsie!
