I'd argue David Soul, we all knew Soul had been in poor health for years. With Jewison, we had no good reason to suspect he was near death.

Given medical check-up last Saturday
Statement from Delon's lawyer on outcome of medical assessment: “Mr Delon replied to all the questions of the expert doctor thus confirming that his faculties are not weakened, contrary to all the defamatory accusations that have made him an object of the media since January.”
Also important to emphasise, his lawyer has not had any allegations against them by another second party, so is likely a trustworthy source.
And again going back to the 2023 Christmas photos, Delon's facial features looked more like those of a 70-year-old than an 88-year-old, despite him being wheelchair bound. One of the healthiest 88-year-olds I have seen (many people at that age can no longer walk).
Delon could therefore make 2025 at a pinch (we know his history of ill health complaints), but his 90th birthday, I really don't see it unfortunately. It looks like he will join the hugely popular 89 club.

His ex-carer accuses his children of attempted murder
Interesting that Delon stopped taking his medication for his lymphoma in July 2023, the month his ex-carer was kicked out of his house by his children.

To stand trial with his daughter on alleged misuse of funds
"An initial pre-trial hearing scheduled for 27 March will be followed by a more in-depth hearing during October and November."

Barenboim leading the BerlinPhil at the conclusion of 2023. Doesn't look like a worthy 2024 DeathList candidate at all based on these pics.
Does anyone here know what "serious neurological condition" Barenboim has been suffering from?

The DL did a fine job with drops this year: Yoko Ono was the only unwise drop, although it might also have been worth keeping on Marianne Faithfull.

Yes, looks like a man with a few years left but would be surprising if he makes 90.

I took Delon off my 2024 shadowlist at the last minute, based on the 2023 Christmas pics above. Wheelchair bound, but other than that, looks great and really youthful for 88. But it sounds like he is in poorer health than he looks.
What do we think? Based on these photos, does he look like a 2024 death?
-
If he makes 2025, he should be positioned at no. 1 on the DL.

Has any DL candidate ever had a shorter debut? Doesn't look like it.

Stuart Hall- will be 96 next year, and has made no public appearances in years, shocking he hasn't already made his DL debut

Sophia Loren and Alain Delon would have been better picks this year.

Of the top five this year, only Jimmy deserves to be there.
