Abuffalosoldier does a Tommy Cooper, collapsing minutes after winning at Cheltenham. Two other horses die too.

Wrote 'The Land of Make Believe' for those prog rock giants Bucks Fizz. Also produced Roxy Music's debut in 1972. RIP.

A satirical website buying out a conspiratorial website? That's weird, it's seems like the media industry equivalent of Steven Wright's gag about putting instant coffee in a microwave and almost going back in time!

"Get me Pendleton!" Best BBC drama serial ever IMHO.

Vila would have no hesitation of putting him on a dead pool. Business is business y'know!

Neil Young turns 79 today.

Dawson's Creek. None more Nineties.

No, they have to be born in the United States to qualify...like Boris Johnson.

FTFY

Barely made Bonfire Night.

Football is a cruel business. In April his team were 1cm from reaching the FA Cup final.

That's a shame considering his ag- oh!

Curious. Watching The Sweeney and looked up Johnny Shannon. Seems like he died in 2017 according to Wikipedia and this article.

Cheer up Old Crem, at least there wont be a third world war.

Yeah, sure but it will soon blow over. If Harris has it in the bag, they can rage all they like it aint gonna make a difference.

This might be a cynical view but I do wonder who the US media really want to win. Donald Trump, colossal dick that he is, is good copy. The right will big him up, even though he'll end up doing nowt and the pearl-clutching liberals will have a field day and will doom-monger right up until January 20 2029. All for clicks, clicks clicks. Harris would be a historic win for sure but that will soon wear off and she's seems...alright, I suppose. Unless she orders an invasion of Bali or something she'll probably play it safe. Hopefully she will win and close the book on this circus for good.

Well the Tories have finally got an 'enoch as leader!

That's everyone's joker sorted out then.

Maverick documentary filmmaker Peter Watkins turns 89 today.

British cultural shorthand for a big bastard, along with Giant Haystacks. RIP.

I'm going to choose the sensible option and not rise to the very obvious bait you have been dangling, much like the rest of this forum.

Yeah, they may even get far enough to get your vote, eh?

Horrible way to go. Mind you, AIDs isn't a gas either.
