Neol Edmunds

Maybe the pub food will finish him off. Doesn't strike me as someone to drink to excess.

My hardly revelatory prediction for 2024: pre WW2 babies are 85+. An awful lot of 70s and 80s TV stars will fall into the (Hinge and) bracket. Denville Hall residents will be among those affected by the reaper.

My death list line-up: Franz Beckenbauer Noam Chomsky Timothy West Philippe De Gaulle Juan Carlos I Mel Brooks Alex Ferguson Glynis Johns Esther Rantzen Noddy Holder Hopefully after dropping Syd Little after years of disappointment he'll oblige.

And doubtless lots of death duties avoided.

Get Carter - for no other reason than it'll spark a massive row in my "Fantasy Funeral League" for everyone who picked him in 2024.

Beautiful positioning of Sophie Anderson behind Berlusconi!

I thought Phil Collins just has problems standing to perform and drumming due to back injuries. Although possibly the situation has deteriorated.

Noel Edmonds, for no other reason than putting him in the 50, if 2023 goes out with a bang, might put the willies up him.

Kinnock-knock-knocking on heaven's door?

Voting for Jimmy Carter to hasten Ethel Kennedy's demise.

I'm voting Stanley Baxter to hasten the demise of Jean-Marie Le Pen.

Jimmy Carter

Sticking with Tebbit. Hoped he would have frothed with rage that Tory immigration policy was too soft. And then carked on cue at the Party conference.

Norman Tebbit. During party conference season.

Le Stylo surely.

Fugger Fayed, got to be. Preferably on or around 31 August.

Biffy Clyro named after Sir Biffington Clyde Rhodes.

I dropped him from my 2023 list on grounds of resilience. Smiling like a dog that has just run off with a string of sausages at my bonus point.

Louis XIV iirc

Top stats there!

Is he the longest living former pope? I'm cynical are reckon he abdicated to be available for a bigger gig.

Rumour has it he has a sponsored daisy push up lined up...
