Not if he persists in smoking heavily he won't. Yeah Harold has been something of a disappointment on the death front, seeing him give that Nobel speech sitting down and with a blanket over his legs I thought a couple of months tops but nope, there he was a few weeks ago giving a studio interview for a BBC arts programme.
