    Summer Olympic Deaths/Dead Medallists

    You could have just linked to @Canadian Paul's blog post here, without plagiarising it and trying to pass it off as your own work, you absolute cretin.

    World War II Veterans

    Aris Poulianos (wiki) was already dead by the time you posted this. Died on 21 March 2021, aged 96, off radar, then his son (also known in the same field) died aged 65 several months later (also off radar). His Wiki was only updated today to reflect but Vice reported on it in March 2023, and R Thess reported on it in May 2023. Very surprised his death went unnoticed tbh. Type of death that would translate into a QO given his work.

    Political Frailty

    Are you really doubting the word of Lady Ian Cecilia of Easterhouse in the Borough Shithole? How dare you.

    The Fringes Of Fame/family Of The Famous

    Both of them now dead then as I believe he died in the early 1990s.

    Political Frailty

    Mainly seems to be Nigerian sources reporting it, hence a lot of South Africans kicking off on X.

    41. Brigitte Bardot

    No way. The most famous French actresses in the UK are Bardot, Tautou, Cotillard and Deneuve. They’re household names. Any others are second rate.

    Derby Dead Pool 2023

    Doesn't even have an English Wiki page. Why would you expect a QO? Have you submitted more teams of obitless nobodies for 2024 as well?

    British Science Fiction Series

    Only one name in there that I have to sort on Wiki... Ian Wingrove (wiki). Is there a source for his death. I see that on "Thunderbirds Wiki" it says he died on 30 December 2023 after a short illness. If I can find a tweet or a FB post, I can ping this to the Hollywood Reporter as Wingrove was an Oscar nominee.

    Derby Dead Pool 2023

    “apparently” died without a QO. WTF were you expecting to happen?

    The Next Piper At The Gates Of Heaven

    According to this Facebook post, controversial music manager Matthew Katz (wiki) (Moby Grape, It's A Beautiful Day, Jefferson Airplane) died on September 30, 2023, aged 93. Unsurprisingly, no obit posted anywhere. Not a very popular individual. Edit: Here is the original FB post from his niece.

    Nice list. I like it (for a change).

    It will mean the world won't have a single reigning female monarch!

    Hollywood Possibilities

    Actress Sandra Reaves-Phillips (wiki) dead aged 79. Hollywood Reporter obit. Notable roles in 'Round Midnight and Lean on Me.

    12. Dennis Skinner

    Just as well. There would have been a lot of blushes in the Home Office after his whole Kanye West-style “Hitler was a good lad” gaffe.

    Ideas and possibilities for 2024

    Matilda is on ITV at the moment. Saw her and thought “where you been gal?”.

    12. Dennis Skinner

    *Hey Siri, show me an awful take* Tim Martin has fed millions of mouths, pumped millions into the economy, supported the domestic rural sector, ran some very successful campaigns against the Government (including on VAT, beer duty), and ran some notable philanthropic causes. Dennis Skinner achieved next to nothing in his 150 years in Parliament. He was just a chronic crank.

    Ideas and possibilities for 2024

    Just going to put this out there… Pam Ferris. 76 in May, obese. Hardly been present on screen in recent years. Last acting credit 2021. Is she ill??

    Hooroo, Mate.
