So you presume that he's frail and can no longer walk based on the evidence that he's sat down in a recent photo - and possibly (in your mind at least) because he's wearing a silly hat? Tell me Guest_Guest, is their a functioning brain in your head or just a monkey banging together a pair of cymbals?

P D James. Why not?

Was going to consider Mary Carlisle (102 next Feb) for 2014 but she looks like she may last out for another few years going by this video >

Looks like Indian social campaigner Sankaralingam Jagannathan passed away back in February. http://www.rightlivelihood.org/pressrelease_feb12.html Picked in the DDP a few years ago.

The Shamen - Ebeneezer Goode

Look Mr. Camping, it didn't work the first 3 fucking times, and it ain't gonna happen this time...

Not "THE" grand ayatollah, "A" grand ayatollah. There are many of them.

Edited list to remove Donald Chapman, but also Sir Morgan Morgan-Giles who has died aged 98. Obituary courtesy of the Telegraph: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituaries/politics-obituaries/10039104/Rear-Admiral-Sir-Morgan-Morgan-Giles.html

Well no offence intended dean1991 but you reported it as fact that he was alive when in reality we really don't know. In fact nobody on the internet knows, and his acting career stopped about 50 years ago. I'd be surprised if he was alive.

Is that why his Wikipedia article is filed into the "Possibly living" category?

Wonder if he died from an asphyxi-wank?

Just a tad biased. Britain was coming out of a WORLD WAR when Attlee was in power, so there's a situational difference. Naturally, there'd be more things to rebuild, and create.

Jonathan Winters dead at 87 > http://www.tmz.com/2013/04/12/jonathan-winters-dies-dead/

Some people really are just sad obsessive fuck wits. RIP to the greatest peacetime PM this country has ever seen and to a hell of a woman. Reviled and revered for the exact same reason ultimately - because she made decisions which she felt were right for this country, rather than decisions which seemed easy, the latter of which many politicians are well too guilty of.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one who looks such stuff up then! Was trying to figure out what the youngest year of birth for WWII veterans is now and more importantly who is the oldest WWII veteran and the youngest WWII veteran alive in the world today. All I could find was info on Calvin Graham (1930-1992) who was the youngest American to serve in World War II at the age of 12 > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calvin_Graham

Second-most famous? Hitler wasn't a vegetarian, old wife's tale.

Western television and film actor Dale Robertson has died aged 89 (not 90 as stated on the link) according to a Western fan site: http://www.westernclippings.com/ A unique pick for All Quiet on the Westerns Front on the DDP, for which I believe an obit should come along soon. P.S. Still not sure how to embed links here, used to know how but I see it's changed. Help anyone?

We can read Wikipedia you know...

Wasn't really sure where to post this one... Japanese-born American martial arts great and highest-ranked female judo practitioner in history, Keiko Fukuda is dead on Wikipedia and by hearsay on Twitter. Nothing official as of yet. She was due to turn 100 in 2 months and I almost put her on my DDP.

Doctor Who fans are tweeting that Peter Gilmore has passed away aged 81. No media coverage as of yet...

Clive James.

Somebody edited the page of British actress and soprano Lizbeth Webb on Wikipedia a few hours ago with an edit comment reading "My mother died yesterday".... Hmmm
