Today's been just a dry run run for his death, hasn't it? He'd better leave it a little while before going...

If she replied that she was still the PM, then the marbles really have been lost...

We're getting there. A couple of big pushes and the bits 'n pieces should be up by the weekend, fingers crossed...

Au contraire Thing is about The Independent's obits is that the URL's are often too long for the database!

Looks a load of rubbish to me. Borgonovo's 47, not 44...

Seems that he's likely dead, but did he die in 2011 or 2012? A difficult one this. How can we be absolutlely sure he's dead? If his mates in the Taliban confirm it, then perhaps...

A team picked him for DDP 2012, but he was ineligible..

And now his predecessor as UK ambassador Charles Price has also died http://www.cbsnews.c...gan-dies-at-80/ Actually. he's the first miss of 2012...

Why would anyone protest? Anyone with a beef with her would be delighted! If she gets a state funeral, I'll bet you some arse tries to protest about it. Oh, I see what you mean, yes. I'm of the growing opinion that they should privatise it. "It's what she would have wanted..."

Why would anyone protest? Anyone with a beef with her would be delighted!

First "miss" of 2012...

That's a hit for in eternum+'s Wrinkly Dicks...

There you go, see... That's 6 hits in 12 days so far in 2012, well on target for a hit every other day (183) which must surely be the aim for 2012!

Reuters UK only. No AP on it's own, only through a mainstream UK newspaper (Guardian is good for that sort of thing). No UK obit for Sagor Maas yet...

Which has come via the Guardian, so well done to those who picked him!

France 1 reporting that he's died. That's gonna be the first points of the year for a lot of the DDP hopefuls in 2012. EDIT:http://www.bbc.co.uk...africa-16473457 And here's your BBC obit. Not as many as you might think, just 7...

What's the team name?

By my calculations, 7 teams...

Express show picture of album he wasn't part of...

US Football coach Gene Bartow has died. A British obit will ensure a hit for 2 teams in this year's DDP...

Photographer Eve Arnold has died. A few teams have picked her for DDP 2012...

That's not strictly true as he hasn't been convicted yet. He will score points, just not unnatural points bonus...

Actually there's 541 as the Deathlist.net automatically enters...

That's just the first process. The next, which I'm half way through, is inputting the team names into the database via excel (Team names, how many years, comments etc). Then I'll sift through all entries to match existing celebrities in the database. Then I write up info on the new celebs. Then load it all in. Phew! What I might do, is the regular teams first, there's over 400 of them. Then I'll do the theme teams - 116 of them! I'll let you know how I get on and whether I need some assistance once I can grasp what needs doing...
