Happy Birthday Phantom....

Manchester City in 1937/8

Question is, will the media make much of a fuss of her final days, like with George Best? Will she get a UK obit?

a lyric... Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water Jack fell down and broke his crown and Jill sued the local authority for inadequate warning sign provision.

There's a debate going, so lets get our proverbial choppers on the table and guess when ol' Tam's gonna finally bring home the bacon...

Well, she's survived the 13th and the weekend so who knows when she will give her final sermon... It is hard to predict actually when someone dies, but it shouldn't be too long. She's a fighter alright!

DDP is the best as it is not too complicated or too simple and the rules are the rules. I'm gutted I didn't get any points for John Smyth, but he had to get a BBC/National newspaper obit and I respect that rule, it's one of its twists for the more obscure picks as to whether they will get proper obits... Of course the DDP has shot up in popularity in the last 3/4 years, indeed it has become a victim of its success, with the processing of nearly 500 entrants this year. If the boys can find a way of coping with this surge, then I see no reason why it can't continue indefinitely...

Yeah he'll get one. I don't suppose you guys have heard of Blake's 7! Big series in the 1970s....

Yes it looks as if the Death List is back in the big time after such a lull.... This week has certainly been the best since I joined in March 2005...

There's a Richard Franklin who was in Doctor Who, who I thought you might have meant there, but I see it's not. Doctor Who does, however, sadly lose occasional voice actor Peter Tuddenham, who is most famous for doing the voices of Zen, Orac and Slave in Blake's 7. http://www.horizon.org.uk/news.php Someone has him on their DDP....

Hmmm...Perhaps I do need a lie down...nighty night...

When was the last time we had 2 hits inside a day, if at all? I knew DL would hit a hot streak and in the dampest British summer for yonks too! And its my first hit on the shadow list for 6 months. Here's to more...

Nice to see the Happy Mondays have chipped in, they know a thing or two about pharmaceuticals.... £3,500...a bit pricey, but there'll be benefits and that to keep him going. Possibly a hasty WDP choice methinks...

With Charles Lane directed to the highway to heaven, who will follow him away the crow road? It's got to be Tammy FM. By the end of the week, the Deathlist could be back on track...

This is becoming creepy CP, two predictions in a row it would seem. Make it three TF, he mentioned Melly in the Third Poll...

Too f****n' right! Canadian Paul, more like Nostradamus (only CP gets it right!).. Now tell me, who's going to win at Newbury racecourse tomorrow? I'm going to have to do the 6th poll now, it's getting like Groundhog day...

Hats off to Canadian Paul and his dreams!

Blimey! I told you DL will go on a run.... I don't think I had him in my own 50...bugger!

Their careers are going in a better direction than Vic Reeves that's for sure!

Could be someone close to him...remember Indira Ghandi, shot by one of her sikh bodyguards, not long after her government forces attacked a sikh temple? Good punt for '08....

As the Waco Kid said 'boy is he strict!'

How was it done? Did he do a part of it knowing he was gonna cop it, or is it all trick photography/done with mirrors/computers etc? Good point about Bob OoO. Despite his 'smarmy' image, he was considered one of the most modest and self-effacing men in 'The Biz'..

Lets hope he's been given 6 months...

It'll be too much to expect her to go on the 13th and deliver me 20 points, so I'm plumping for the weekend...

How - exactly - does a fanny dance? I mean, attached to the rest of the body I can understand it, but you've got my mind reeling Windsor, share this insight. I suppose you could make a fanny dance...if you were really, really good...
