    He's not. The list in that section isn't GRG verified...

    Unconfirmed reports where? State in your posts... and if it's Twitter, FB etc. then provide a link so we can judge credibility ourselves.

    Angela Lansbury

    Her Guardian obit says that her grandfather was Labour leader George Lansbury, so I guess she must be a cousin of Angela's.

    We can certainly hope not.

    ND Tiwari dead on his 93rd birthday. I reckon we'll see at least another two from those seven gone before Christmas.

    N. D. Tiwari dead. And on his 93rd birthday too. Party pooper. Edit: Not a state leader - my mistake!

    Kirk Douglas

    The problem with the MeToo movement is it commands respect yet it shows little respect for others, particularly if you're a male and you're accused of something. It assumes guilty until otherwise proven innocent, and that in my eyes is just not acceptable in a 21st century democracy where everyone is supposed to be considered equal before the eyes of the law - it's an injustice to have your name smeared and your reputation destroyed. If a single shred of evidence existed other than just the usual he said, she said gossip then somebody would have pursued a conviction against Douglas and got it to court before now.

    Opera

    A really boring death to wake up to on a Saturday morning. Nonetheless if anyone is even remotely interested in opera alternatives now that she's gone, look no further than her next of kin. Bernabé Martí, an operatic tenor and her widower will be 90 in November. If that isn't boring enough for you, then Richard Bonynge, the conductor and widower of Dame Joan Sutherland is 88 and a worthy inclusion for a longlist.

    Sir John Swinton of Kimmerghame, British Army General, dead at 93. Supposedly.

    Fantastic to hear she's still alive and kicking. Great find, well done!

    Leah Bracknell

    How has she not referred to us in one of her blog posts by now? Just rude. .... somebody send her a DL t-shirt and mug and make her an ambassador maybe?

    markb4, can you please cut and paste the content into a post? Because of the EU's silly GDPR laws, we can't access the article.

    Nobel Prize In Death

    Roy Glauber will be 93, not 91 at the start of next year. Got him on my long list.

    Queen Elizabeth II

    Am I right in thinking she will become the longest reigning queen in world history in January? This would suggest that Eleanor of Aquitaine is the only woman who has reigned longer.

    Can I play? I didn’t take part in any of the previous rounds. If so, I’ll take Do Muoi.

    List is holding up reasonably strong. 4 gone in 10 months since I made the list.

    James B. Thayer, a decorated US Army brigadier general, dead at 96. Interestingly, also the father of the lead guitarist of KISS, Tommy Thayer. EDIT: Tommy Thayer tweeted the news too it seems.

    Robbie Coltrane

    Supposedly making a comeback. I'm going to call absolute b/s on this. He's been in poor health for half a decade during which he has lived mostly as a recluse. His last acting appearance was in 2016 and in the Coltrane's Critical Evidence (British police documentary series) he has hosted since, all he had to do was sit at a table and talk to a camera. "Only" 68, but looks 10 years older than he actually is. Diabetic, major circulatory problems, hasn't lost the weight he set out to and now walking with a stick and very frail. If he sees 2020, I'll be shocked.

    F Troop actor Larry Storch dead at 95 supposedly. May be a hoax though as nothing on the TwitTwatSphere.
