Duly cuntified.

Thought for sure I already failed yesterday while doing groceries. But the game only starts today, and it was a cover version anyway. So still in it.

Can't wait to see you pick XXXX-XXXXX XXXXXXXXXXX as a sub again. ...oh, right.

I actually would know Rolf Harris without this forum as Tie Me Kangaroo Down, Sport charted pretty high in the States and surprisingly I've heard it on 60s radio a few times. Granted, a fraction of his UK fame/infamy.

Bill Treacher, Leslie Phillips, John Aniston, Vicky Phelan, Robert Clary, Ned Rorem, Doddie Weir, Clare Marx, Jiang Zemin seems the November onslaught? Should be updating in a couple days time.

A quick update as the 2023 thread typically is set up around this time. If all goes as planned we should be ready to open for 2023 around December 4th. Banana is all set to succeed GUN in the team entry role, with GUN providing appropriate training as needed. Stay tuned...

ISIS burning through leaders like they were UK PMs.

The genarians site probably only uses "individual" because it has a tortoise on its pages

Giving lesser-known actors their dues has long been one of the forum's strong points so I'm a little confused by the argument. It's not even like they were being suggested for DL since this is the general deadpooling ideas thread.

Louise Tobin I'd have thought was a pure 50/50 shot, but "helped discover Frank Sinatra" is surely too good a headline for the QOs to pass up on. It already got her a Sun mention, but annoyingly, only the US edition.

91 Queen – Bohemian Rhapsody 79 David Bowie – Space Oddity 68 ABBA – Waterloo 54 10CC - I’m Not In Love 49 Suzi Quatro – Devil Gate Drive 20 Barry White - You`re the first, the last, my everything +4 12 Bay City Rollers – Bye bye baby 2 Ken Boothe - Everything I Own -6

Tobin was almost certainly the earliest surviving artist to chart in the US, over 80 years ago. Now the earliest to my knowledge are Ann Clark of The Sentimentalists, who turned 100 back on April 28th, and Nancy Norman, who was interviewed in 2014 so presumably still with us.

Doddie Weir is a record breaking 18th death for this year's Drop 40. Between possibilities of further deaths like Rolf, and names falling off like Maxwell, strong chance at least half of next year's Drop 40 are fresh faces.
