Give your headache a rest. Have a newspaper obit:

Telegraph come in with a QO for Astro. They also released one yesterday for Allan Wilmot of The Southlanders. Some great pics featured in both of them.

Sibghatullah Kadri, the UK's first Muslim QC, died on 2 November from cancer, aged 84. Times obit

You can rule out the 2009 name. That person was born in 1927.

Ah, thanks. The "streams live" description that The Tonight Show wrote under their own video is somewhat misleading.

Performed with Gaga on the Late Show last night, so not quite done with performing yet. Just gigs it would seem. He sounds great, looks awful. Also seems to have no idea what’s going on.

Is she ill?

FB post reporting the death of U.S. physician Margaret Giannini (wiki), aged 100.

I think that article gets top marks as the worst tabloid piece I've read in a while. Riddled with mistakes throughout it. I expect nothing less from The Sun and their gutter journalism. It says John Tinniswood, 109, is the UK's oldest person.

Then again, that obit does mention several deceased relatives, so not sure you can make a call either way using that.

Daily Star obit.

English composer Gordon Crosse (wiki) dead just short of his 84th birthday.

Caird died on 12th October after a short hospital stay according to his children on FB. They described it as a shock so it must've been sudden. Edit: BAFTA has his full birth and death dates here.

Death notice for John Vernon Bartlett (wiki), aged 94, British civil engineer credited with the Channel Tunnel and London's Victoria line.

But not everything in Main concerns deadpooling? A lot of it is just discussion of ailing of deceased subjects of note.

Noah Gordon (wiki), American novelist, dead at 95 according to his official website. Also being picked up by media here. Best known for his Cole trilogy, including The Physician (1986). He's picked in Shadow Lists this year and was thrown out as a possibility twice by @TomTomTelekom in the past. I'd expect a QO.

Crossposting, seeing as Animal Antics is in extra curricular now for some reason.

Why was this thread moved to extra-curricular?

Bart the Bear 2 (wiki), Alaskan grizzly bear actor, dead at 21. Appeared in TV and film, including Into the Wild, Evan Almighty, Without a Paddle, We Bought a Zoo, Scrubs and Game of Thrones. EDIT: Hollywood Reporter obit

@Octopus of Odstock, decided to do a bit of research into Eric Hampson (b. 1921) and I believe I've made some progress. He retired in 1954. By 1959 he had moved to Bognor in Sussex and was working as a confectioner and tobacconist. The source is this old newspaper clipping I pulled up from the British Newspaper Archive: Crucially, it gives his wife's name as Ethel. From this information I was able to locate her through Ancestry in the family trees. She was born in Newcastle-under-Lyme, Staffordshire as Ethel Morris (not far from Eric) in 1922. She died in Lewes, Sussex in December 1973. So they were still living in Sussex at that point. Now I have great reason to believe Eric moved away after she passed away, and I think I can just about prove it. His listing on the Ancestry family trees is private, meaning he's listed as living (so either he is still alive OR he has died and nobody who has him in their trees has added his death details). There is one clue however. Their daughter Elizabeth Vivian Hampson (b. 1952 in Staffordshire) is listed as having died in Queensland, Australia in 2012. If family members have updated that, it tends to suggest he was still alive in 2012. His absence from the GRO Index and 192People would give strength to the idea he's in or was in Queensland. That's where you should look for your answer.

Well that was quick. Guardian obit for Robert Bly.

A suspicious amount of people have voted for Eva Marie Saint. There definitely wasn't 13 picks for her near the start of this. Can't voting be locked in these polls after a certain point so ppl can't just cheat after their original pick dies?

Marcus Hammond was born in 1938. Not sure about O'Keefe though.

How the fuck do Henry Wolf and Roy Holder not have QOs yet? And what is happening over at The Guardian? Their turnover of obits has definitely slowed down.

Metro reports it happened on September 8th, even though it's just been made news. I've watched the first series a couple of times and I can't say I remember him. I think he was a quick interviewee.
