To be honest if I was Tom Baker and got handed that script I wouldn't have made an appearance.

Yes it did. If I remember rightly the previous record was Ysanne Churchman playing Alpha Centuri (43 years). Bill Russell last played Ian 57 years ago.

SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!!

That leaves 5 surviving members of Carter's cabinet plus the man himself. W. Michael Blumenthal (96) Ray Marshall (94) Joseph A. Califano Jr. (91) Neil Goldschmidt (82) Charles Duncan Jr. (96)

Inspired by @Grimgrass here's a list of all the Pixar movie actors to have died in the past 5 years. Don Rickles (Mr. Potato Head, Toy Story 1-4) (2017) John Cygan (Various, Cars-Inside Out) (2017) R. Lee Ermey (Sarge, Toy Stoy 1-3) (2018) Bud Lucky (Rick Dicker/Chuckles, The Incredibles/Toy Story 3) (2018) Katherine Helmond (Lizzie, Cars 1-3) (2019) Junior Johnson (Himself as a car, Cars 3) (2019) Ian Holm (Skinner, Ratatouille) (2020) Brian Dennehy (Django, Ratatouille) (2020) David Lander (Thumper, A Bug's Life) (2020) Carl Reiner (Himself as a toy, Toy Story 4) (2020) Fred Willard (Shelby, Wall-E) (2020) Jack Angel (Various, Toy Story-Monsters Uni) (2021) Ed Asner (Carl, Up) (2021) Christopher Plummer (Muntz, Up) (2021) Betty White (Herself as a toy, Toy Story 4) (2021) Ned Beatty (Lotso, Toy Story 3) (2021) Sally Kellerman (Mabel, Ratatouille) (2022)* Estelle Harris (Mrs. Potato Head, Toy Story 2-4) (2022) Mickie McGowan (Various, Toy Story-Inside Out) (2022) Jan Rabson (Various, Toy Story-Inside Out) (2022) Robbie Coltrane (Dingwall, Brave) (2022) As Grimgrass originally said quite a surprising amount from the toy story franchise and coincidentally both leads of Up dead within months of each other and both the same age too (91). *She is credited in some places but not others so I can't be sure if she actually voiced the character

Nine if you count Mickie McGowen who although not a named role in the film (unlike some of her other Pixar roles) provided additional voices for the film

Patrick Leahy might not be a bad shout for next year, retiring from the senate after 47 years and seems to have had a multitude of health problems over the past 12 months. Could replace Dick Cheney as they're both of a similar age and political standing.

Robbie Coltrane is a hit for me. (QO Just in case)

Liz Sheridan maybe.

Top 15 even!

October 27th

6th hit in under 2 months, grim reaper is really making up for the 4 month dry period

I don't know if you are doing a list of the missed for the eliminated shows but Austin Stoker would have been one for Falcon Crest.

Scales is someone that will be on the list to she dies. She shouldn't have been put on there to begin with 5 or so years ago but at this point it's probably too big of a risk to remove her, and if they did it would be a massive miss.

It seems to me that the committee are hesitant to add new names of people who are 100+, the only ones I can think of recently are Captain Tom and Shultz last year, they seem to prefer sticking to names from previous years lists until they die, such as Prince Philip, Kirk D, The Queen Mother & Vera Lynn. I think that these are good choices but I don't doubt that most of the new 'elderly' selections chosen next year will be 75-99. However I may just be spotting something that isn't there with this 'trend'.

Hard disagree here, apart from being old there is nothing seemingly wrong with him, and from what I have seen of him recently he looks and sounds about 10-15 years younger than he is. Of course being that age it wouldn't be surprising if he did die but there are definitely people in worse off conditions.

Yes, I was very surprised too see that myself, especially considering the alliterative name.

Loretta Lynn is a hit for me!

Eric Idle is on The Graham Norton Show this evening and when I first saw this image I didn't even realise it was him, looks quite different from when I last saw him.

American Actor Michael D. Nye's IMDb page says that he died last year on November 7th, however I am unable to find a (reliable) source for this and can see other places having his date of death as November 6th. Would anyone be able to help in either disproving this or finding a source.

Italian Actor Marcello Magni who played the main form of Prisoner Zero in the Doctor Who episode The Eleventh Hour has died aged 63.

Was wondering if anyone could provide further help for me with this one. Actor Derek Smith reportedly born 15 June 1927 in Tooting London and has onscreen credits from 1958-2007. I can find one website saying that he died, 7 April 2015, but this is not mentioned anywhere else as far as I can see and the website doesn't list a source. My first thought is that they were getting him confused with another Derek Smith (Wiki) who was also born in 1927 and died in 2015, however the date of death, 17 March, is different to the one assigned to the other Smith. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

October 18th

Yes

Closest I can see is William IV acceded in June 1830, then Charles Grey became PM in November
