    List of teams is up, if you can see any problems with your team do say.

     

    Please reply to this thread if one of your picks does die, mainly if it's an obscure one.

     

    Looks good except it's Gudrun not Gudren.

     

    We seem to like our 'jack' words.

    Don't think anyone had picked upon Lisa Loring being a hit in this pool too for @Handrejka

    Thanks. It looks like I had Kirsty Alley too which I don't remember and a few of us had Nicholas Evans.


  3. When I was about 6, I used to spend time with a friend, her slightly older brother and his slightly older friend and we would put on little plays. One time we did Cinderella and I played the prince. Our version was slightly different as at the end I had to shoot the ugly sisters, then try to shoot the evil step mother but declare "Oh, fuck I have run out of bullets."  I knew by everyone's shocked reactions it was a naughty word but I don't think I knew what it meant until I was about 11.

     

    I didn't encounter the word cunt until I was 15 when my mum bought one of those student rag mags and it seemed to be on every page. I didn't dare ask anyone what it meant so looked it up in the dictionary.  I seemed to see and hear it all the time after that. 

     

    Also apparently I once uttered "I'm buggered if I'm sleeping on that." when I was about 3 and refused to sleep on a camp bed. I don't believe that though.

    US TV is as small a world as UK TV! Trying the first episode of Cheers as its on Channel 4s terrible On Demand service. Recognised Diane's one episode only fiancée instantly. To imdb....


    He's the guy who kills his wife in Columbo classic A Friend in Deed,  with Richard Kiley as the corrupt police chief! He was also in seemingly everything from The West Wing to Manimal. Manimal!


    Michael McGuire - apparently he's been in nearly everything and is still alive aged 89. Hasn't been mentioned on this forum before, a Labour MP with the same name was, but he's living, and should get a UK obit with that CV.

    He will always be Sherwin Bash in The Karen Carpenter Story to me. I didn't realise he had also done a M*A*S*H episode.

    I am not on my home computer to check but think he's good.

     

    Found out Katie Price has a history with two people on the show, one she was engaged to and one she married (Alex Reid was a Contender). 

     

    A female gladiator is Angelina Jolie's stunt double and godmother to Shiloh. Rest of women didn't do much after - meanwhile half the men are actors in Hollywood or run their own gyms.

    Eunice Huthart. My friend was her lawyer, they did not get on.

    Historical figures who would have been deadpoolers? Recently learned that Michael Bentine fell into a coma as a child after being injected with typhoid, and upon coming out of it developed a "skill" - he could tell when people were going to die in the next six weeks, as when he looked at them they had a skull superimposed over their face. This made his time in the Air Force during WW II particularly unnerving.

    I remember reading about that somewhere too. I seem to recall he saw the same image over his son's face shortly before he was killed in a plane crash.

     

    Didn't Guy de Maupassant play in a sort of proto dead pool?

    I know someone from school in same year as me who had younger brother called Barry. Her brother died early 20's and in his memory named one of her sons after her brother.

     

    My fav aunt is called Margaret and while I know nobody under 40 with that name I feel like if I had a daughter i'd give her middle name something like Margaret or Margot. Not Maggie as all I can think about is The Simpsons.

    Was he killed in a car accident? If so I might know the same one.

    Hello.

     

    Many thanks to the DDP admins.

     

    Some housekeeping:

    SPORTSPEOPLE I THINK MIGHT DIE IN 2023:

    Bill Gates is the former Middlesbrough footballer and not the vaccine-microchipping computer illuminatus.

    Dave Watson is the former England international (b. 10/46) and not the goalkeeping coach.

    Dick Savitt is completely correct, I'm just bringing him up because I got a unique hit.

     

    PEOPLE I THINK MIGHT DIE IN 2023:

    Michael Fish is the designer of the kipper tie and my lone recurring unique and not the weatherchap.

     

    Salut!

     

     

    On the other hand, the Michael Fish in my Well done if you got these at home team is the weatherman. It's also a theme team.
