Hmmm. Nip and tuck. I'll think he'll just make it to 2013...

Milija Aleksic, the former Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper, has died aged 61.

Whilst acting on this information and adding Robert Stigwood to my database I found Beryl Vertue but she is another of these elusive people whose birthdate is not common knowledge. I do not think she is a good pick for 2013 as on the Sherlock DVD extras she comes across as fit and well but when she does go her association with Sherlock and Stephen Moffatt (Mother-in-law) will guarentee an obit. Does anybody know how old she is? More than that. She was the producer of 'Men Behaving Badly' as well as having a long professional association with Spike Milligan and Tony Hancock...

I wonder if there is a tipping point as to when these "allegations" drift into the realm of attention-seeking bullshittery? Remember the old adage about not believing what you read in the papers?

This, if only for its diocese...

One my dad's favourite character actors. Starred in "Robert's Robots", which has a bit before my time but fondly remembered among the older brood...

She's done away with the hair dye. She looks really old...

Yes, a patch of ground on this site to discuss Rangers. A Teddy Bears picnic perhaps?

In tribute...

Really? What's the damage on that one then? Just google "kevin keegan motorway lay-by baseball bat attack" Just rumour and conjecture although the event was one of the more inexplicable episodes in Keegan's life I suppose... However, here's an interesting titbit from a Guardian article about Joe Mercer's short tenure as England caretaker manager in 1974. The team had just beaten Bulgaria 1-0 in Sofia. On transit in Belgrade, Yugoslavia... Hmmmm...

A hit for One Century Is Enough, Madam! should the right obit come through...

Chris Morris had the right of it then...* *Actually, this is a slightly amended version on his Boxing Day 1994 show, but I remember when it was first broadcast earlier that summer in the first episode. Curiously the recording of the "reaction" was probably from the death of a Leicestershire-based child sex offender called Frank Beck, who died in prison just one day before the original broadcast...

Elaborate tombstone removed

I suggested him for DL back in 2007. May even have had him on DDP or HDP. Can't actually remember. But according to this BBC report it's incredibly dangerous to try that sort of thing and people who do tend to die. Could end up the most spectacular DDP hit yet...

*looked at headline only* HE WAS EATEN BY A COCKROACH!!

Is this the lesbian story?

Ah well, gives you the chance to tag Sheila as "Dead".

You'd have an Art Attack! Geddit? Please yerselves...

Sex with Jimmy Krankie? Groping Sandi Toksvig? My word there's some sick people about...

Im guessing she must have been working with David Blunkett at the time. I wonder whoever groped her found her Number 73?

John Peel = BBC at it's best. So it is obvious that the Daily Mail want to damage his reputation. Because they are insane...

Steve Jobs died one year ago today...

Gold star for the new tagline BTW...
