Should probably bring back Pierre Cardin seeing as he'll be 95 next year and looks frail.

Now then, now then... Jimmy Savile was a "guest housemate" on the series with Pete Burns. Worth a mention.

Turns out the anonymous male who was Britain's oldest man was Harold Bracher (b. 1904). Anyway, he died back in April aged 111. See: http://z3.invisionfree.com/The_110_Club/index.php?showtopic=17113 His successor, Frank Simes (b. 1905) died last month, also aged 111. See: http://z3.invisionfree.com/The_110_Club/ar/t17061.htm UK's new oldest man is John Mansfield (b. 1907), who turns 109 in December.

Looking at the low hanging fruit on the list... Gabor, Sallis, Douglas etc. I wouldn't be surprised if another few hits were to closely follow. It's starting to get quite chilly out there as winter sets in, and the Grim Reaper might deliver us a few early Xmas pressies

Jack Rawlings at 93 according to this edit on Wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jack_Rawlings&oldid=740537927 Played for Enfield and Hendon, and was a member of the 1948 British football team at the Olympics.

Death certificate for Laffan for the MiB: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patricia_Laffan#/media/File:Death_certificate_of_actress_Patricia_Laffan_(1919-2014).jpeg

Also, on Laffan... somebody has posted this on the talk page... https://postimg.org/image/k62dycbax/ Still find it hard to believe she died 2 years ago and the press missed it, but then again it looks like she didn't marry or have children. Maybe didn't have anyone? Quite sad.

Former Iranian PM Jamshid Amouzegar died yesterday according to Wiki... also seen someone mention it on Twitter. We wait... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jamshid_Amouzegar

No. Only individuals who participated in proper sports are eligible for the DL.

Yep, there's nothing in the California death records or the Social Security Index though. I have no idea what her maiden name was though, that may be what she's under, or it could be a rumour that is unfounded (original source is normally reliable). Her maiden name was Mueller. I Googled "Sally Sweetland nee" and it came up.

A few things: 1) https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Margot_Wölk&oldid=723018959 Wolk's page was edited here to say she passed in 2015. Do a search for her and limit the results to the last year. The press haven't been in touch with her in that time it seems so it's possible. 2) Disagree on Grammauta. It took ages after Albert Facchiano died for any kind of reference for his death to actually spring up. I believe he's dead as I found an individual called "Steve Grammauta" (by which he was also known) found in a "pray for" type section for near-death individuals on a NYC church's website which was dated a week or so before his death date of January 2016 which was added to his Wiki profile... 3) As for Laffan, the claim of her death on Wiki was that she died in 2014 in Chelsea and Westminster Hospital. This one is plausible too... she does live in Chelsea (or did) and the last time I can find a source for her being alive online was 2012. If it's a hoax then the person who invented it clearly knows enough about her to make it seem realistic...

Macy clearly a hoax then. Harmon obit posted above. And here's Mulcaster's: http://www.gallerieswest.ca/blogs-and-buzz/noted-saskatchewan-artist-wynona-mulcaster-dies-in-mexico-at/ Geez the press really suck when it comes to reporting the "minor fame" deaths... For anyone who fancies a deep dig (good luck, I've looked and looked and looked!)... here are some names of people who have had their pages edited within the last year or so to say they're dead. They're probably dead, but nothing to prove it it seems... Frank Miller (b. 1918) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Miller_(singer) Singer; he was the last surviving member of the band The Easy Riders Stephen Grammauta (b. 1916) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Grammauta Mobster; member of the Gambino family Roma Wilkinson (b. 1918) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roma_Wilkinson Songwriter of hits popularised by Bing Crosby, Andrew Sisters etc. Patricia Laffan (b. 1919) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patricia_Laffan English actress in Hollywood B films Margot Wolk (b. 1917) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margot_Wölk Food taster for Adolf Hitler

Article notes that there are less than 20 still alive now. There seems to be much confusion online that so many Navajo code talkers have died since Chester Nez. The media were wrong about Nez being the last Navajo code talker. He was the last of the original 29.

He should use that as a defence as well...

Three people: Phyllis Harmon (99) - cycling advocate or some shit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phyllis_Harmon Bill Macy (94) - actor in "Maude" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Macy Wynona Mulcaster (101) - Canadian painter https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wynona_Mulcaster

Russian media now reporting he has died. Seems it's taking them forever to either confirm or deny.

You're both right. Many of the cast members would be an obscene age if still alive, though it's fair to say that a lot of this bunch met their maker early, and not always in the most pleasant of ways... movie is released in 1963 Don C.

Means Barrie Chase, Jerry Lewis and Carl Reiner are the only survivors of the cast of It's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World. The race is on...

Alphons Egli seems to have been missed out from the List of the Missed.
