  1. Here's mine. A few favourites and Helen Baxendale added just because she is young and celebrities have a habit of dying when they're not meant to. Christian Bale is the Joker for much the same reason. If you see either of them crossing the road, don't brake.

  2. Our Pete has cropped up again. Just after being banned from driving at Gloucester court, he was arrested for heroin possession. I wonder if he tried shooting up in the courtroom? Great picture on the report of him being marched off by the Old Bill

    Singer Pete Doherty charged over drugs

    Singer Pete Doherty has been charged with possessing heroin after an incident at Gloucester Crown Court.

    On Monday the Babyshambles frontman was fined and banned from driving after admitting careless and drink-driving following a gig in the city.

    Moments later he was arrested and officers escorted him from the court to a police station across the road.

    A Gloucestershire Police spokeswoman said Doherty had been charged and bailed to appear in court in January.

    The spokeswoman added: "The 30-year-old man from Wiltshire arrested in Gloucester yesterday has been charged with possession of heroin."


  3. Former footballer John Hartson is n a bad way with cancer. He could be a useful pick for 2010, though he looks riddled with it, so might not last that long.

    Hartson told cancer also in lungs

     

    Former Wales, Arsenal and Celtic striker John Hartson, who is battling cancer, has undergone emergency neurosurgery on his brain.

     

    Doctors have confirmed that the cancer which had already spread to his brain, has now been found in his lungs.

     

    The 34-year-old, capped by Wales 51 times, was diagnosed at the weekend.

     

    He was transferred to Morriston Hospital in Swansea from Singleton Hospital and is in a critical condition after his surgery.

     

    The former footballer underwent emergency neurosurgery to relieve pressure on his brain, a statement from the hospital trust said.

     

    "He is currently being cared for by the critical care team at Morriston and is receiving round-the-clock care aiming to stabilise his condition," the statement said.

     

     

     

    "He will resume radiotherapy and chemotherapy as soon as possible."

     

    Hartson was first diagnosed with testicular cancer on Sunday and admitted to Singleton Hospital in Swansea where further tests were carried out.

     

    The father-of-three retired from a glittering career in football in February 2008 and has since worked as a pundit.

     

    His family issued a statement on Tuesday saying that all his close family and friends "are continuing to support John in any way we can".

     

    "He is receiving outstanding care from all the medical and surgical staff and we would like to thank everyone at both Singleton and Morriston, as well as the excellent ambulance staff," the family said.

     

    "We have been overwhelmed by the support and goodwill from many thousands of football fans, players, clubs and sporting figures and we have drawn strength from this support."

     

    The family also requested that the star's privacy, and that of his family, is respected as he continues his hospital treatment.

     

    Officials at Arsenal have said the club is "deeply saddened" by news of his cancer.

     

    The former centre forward joined Arsenal as a teenager from Luton in January 1995 and, in two seasons at Highbury, made 62 appearances, scoring 16 goals.

     

    The player left Arsenal for West Ham United in February 1997 and continued his career with the Hammers, Wimbledon, Coventry City, Celtic, West Bromwich Albion and Norwich City.

     

    "Everyone at Arsenal Football Club would like to take this opportunity to wish John, together with his family and friends, all the very best in the challenging times that lie ahead. Our thoughts are with you," the statement added.

     

    During his international career, he scored 14 goals before stepping down in February 2006 to concentrate on his club football.

     

    Hartson made his Wales debut in March 1995 in an away match against Bulgaria, often leading the line as a lone striker, until his last game in November 2005 against Cyprus.


  4. How is it possible no one has posted in the Pistol Pete thread in a little over nine months? Maybe he was off having a baby (shambles). Anyhoo, he's back in the news:

     

    Doherty in drug use shock horror?

     

    It's comforting to know that while we and everyone's granny are busy removing our shoes and walking through X ray machines, criminal mastermind Pete Doherty managed to slip a hypodermic needle past airport security. Allegedly.

     

     

    He's back. Had his collar felt in Gloucester last night

  5. Not looking good for Farrah...

     

    Farrah Fawcett has been hospitalized and is in bad shape...She has been battling cancer for three years and recently returned from Germany, where she had experimental stem-cell treatment. Sources told RadarOnline.com that she is critical but stable in a Los Angeles-area hospital. They also say she is unconscious and has been hospitalized for days.

     

     

    Sounds like within a week. I always liked Charlies Angles.

     

    Oh bugger not another near miss! :unsure:

     

    Sweepstake anyone? (I'm going on holiday so not volunteering!)

     

    I'll request April 24th please.

     

     

    Unconcious? I'm going for April 11th


  6. Cynical manipulation of the nedia to the last. Will the Sun now start a campaign to have Mother's Day renamed Jade Goody Day? How long before we get a "Tweed parties with blond as Jade lies dying" headline?


  7. (And pages 7-28 with special Jade Memorial pullout and cuddly Jade-With-Cancer toy offer)

     

    Make your own Jade Goody memorabilia - draw a face on a boiled egg.

     

     

    I was thinking of a range of Jade Goody Memorial haircare products :)


  8. Its probably better to get your death in now before JG shuffles off. Once she goes, even a bizarre suicide death pact between Patrick Swayze, Farrah Fawcett and Ariel Sharon won't shake her off the front pages. (And pages 7-28 with special Jade Memorial pullout and cuddly Jade-With-Cancer toy offer)


  9. I would have though if it was that serious, they wouldn't have flown her from Canada to New York. Cabin pressurisation would not be a good idea with a brain injury. All this 'brain death' reporting is coming from the US and Canada. I would have thought that the potential for news this bad would have the Sun and Sky News bleating it from the rooftops. All the Sun can say is she is 'though to be close to death'.


  10. I wonder if Channel 4 will cancel this year's Big Brother as a mark of respect for Jade?

     

    We can but hope.....

     

    I'm sorry, but the series will be renamed the "The Jade Goody Memorial Big Brother Show", and will run for fifteen hours a day for an extended period of eleven months, in a new house built as an exact copy for the UK's beloved angel. The inside decorated with pictures of the beautiful, intelligent, witty Jade, who captured all our hearts.


  11. I wonder if Brave Jade reads the deathlist forums (fora?)

     

    I very much doubt it. Unless she gets her kids to read it for her?

     

    Any publicity is good publicity. No doubt this forum will feature in a shock horror expose in a tabloid at some point.
