Killen in the name? Albee gone soon? Art of darkness?

He was the murderer in my favourite episode of Columbo...

Eventually that coma lasted 5 months. He was already 20% dead since he lost a leg due to diabetes by today the other 80% as well. He was 66 years old. He's not laughing anymore...

Lillyhammer although I have only seen series one was the rest is on Netflix and I don't have it...

I had a feeling she was picked but when I saw that she wasn't there under Douglas, so I assumed she wasn't chosen. Doh!

Well placed to reach the century I reckon...

You would have thought he'd have had no trouble floating...

Thanks for the team name, you guys. Aaaaaaah. So that's where it comes from...

Hottest July day ever recorded in England. We had fans on all over the place in the office today. Trouble was that was just warm air blown back towards you very quickly...

Lemme guess..Harvest?

It depends when it is. If it is this year then I may allow it (a bit like when you won 2013 with the boxing chap - the DDP equivalent of allowing a goal which replays showed was a touch offside!). Next year I'm considering the rule that "obits" are least written down - even if it is on a sidebar - as what qualified Jean Dore). There you go, clear as mud.

He's gone from KFC to er..lot's of KFC!

He looked in reasonable nick although he's one one of those that could drop dead overnight and we wouldn't be in the least surprised!

DL hasn't been on a roll like this for ages. Great stuff!

Hoping some Obits start to pop up outside of Canada soon. Possible Obit for DDP, but not sure: https://uk.screen.ya...-230239204.html Yes....just!

That maverick of mavericks Stanley Bowles has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease..

Had Clarke on my long list for a while (dicky ticker since the '68 Olympics) without really knowing what his condition was enough to have him in my team...

Lard's love life is one of the more intriguing subplots in this forum. It's like one of those sitcom characters that are oft mentioned but never seen, like Sheridan in 'Keeping up Appearances' or Mrs H's Willy in 'Shelley'. Keep it up...

I was wondering if Tories might try to sabotage the vote by paying £3 each and voting in huge numbers for Corbyn. If this happened in conjunction with a leftie online campaign for Corbyn, it might be doable. . It would make the Government's next 5 years much easier if they were up against him. Tony Benn would allow himself a smile for all sorts of reasons should this come to pass...

Havelange for a giggle...

Wouldn't be funny if Corbyn won?

Repeat ad infinitum I am not a civil servent. Yes I came from a working class background but for me Christopher Lee was a superb actor who had a remarkable and long career. He was not known for making political statements and I would not have held them against him. I was a big fan of Patrick Moore and he was well known Tory (later UKIP) supporter but he was a great astronomer and science communicator. They say you become more right wing as you get older . Maybe because people accumulate wealth or wise up or just get pissed off about everything ? The left wing parties (certainly in this country) tend to try and cater to all sets of voters and they end up not making any of them happy . Labour accused of being pro immigrants ,pro ethnic minorities and forgetting the white working class but large chunks of the ethnic vote actually voted conservative especially hindu and sikh and a good chunk of the white working class went to UKIP. That was one of the key reasons they lost the election well that and treating the Scottish people like fools. Labour like to jump on bandwagons to get votes the conservative party know who their core supporters are and stick with them. I thought the main reason was because Ed Milliband lacked any charisma and people just couldn't envisage him leading the country. Tell that to Clement Attlee, Ted Heath and John Major. We're not like America yet, you know...
