    Jesse Jackson

    Meh. He looks ok. I mean he is 83 in October. Look at Al Sharpton by comparison. Not even 70 and looks very gaunt. Can see him dying in the next 5 years.

    Alain Delon

    I always associated Bardot more so with her animal rights activism than anything to do with immigration or race.

    Alain Delon

    Did not realise he was a big backer of Jean-Marie Le Pen, as detailed in his Times obituary. France stands out by having A listers (or at least A listers of yesterday) back such causes. Delon, Bardot, Depardieu. Just doesn’t happen in the US/UK. Would signal the end of an acting career.

    Frankie Valli

    2 of the his bandmates have died from COVID: Tommy DeVito (aged 92 in 2020) and Joe Long (aged 88 in 2021). Frankie for the hat trick?

    Victoria Jackson

    She's not a household name in the UK but well known enough to easily get a QO.

    Elon Musk

    I would say it’s partly an act, like Joey Essex.

    Elon Musk

    Bumped into Gemma Collins in Soho a few months ago and she ended up joining our night out. She was actually a decent laugh. Very friendly.

    Summer Olympic Deaths/Dead Medallists

    An honorary Olympian of sorts... No Wikipedia page but I see U.S. lacrosse player Bill Coleman turned 100 on August 8th. He represented his country at a demonstration event at the 1948 Olympics. Also a WWII veteran. Looked frail last year on his 99th birthday so perhaps worth keeping an eye on.

    African Leaders - Despots and Democratic

    Abdulai Conteh (wiki) dead just days before his 79th birthday. The last Vice President of Sierra Leone to serve under President Joseph Saidu Momoh (wiki, 1937–2003). They were ousted in a coup in 1992. Conteh lived in exile in Belize for years, becoming a Chief Justice there, before returning to Sierra Leone. Would be curious to know if his predecessor Abu Bakar Kamara (wiki, born 1929) is actually still alive.

    The 100 Club

    Don’t trouble yourself MO. If he died in the meantime, Oldest in Britain would pick it up. He’s well and truly on their radar now. Wasn’t a couple of years ago.

    Kuwait’s Salem Al-Ali Al-Sabah (wiki) dead at 98.

    Aristocrats

    I think this is a Telegraph death notice for Lord Colwyn (wiki), Tory member of the House of Lords from 1967 to 2022.
