Alan Mullery is 83 today

Me neither, I assumed it was a millennial thing!

It's 124 years since the death of Sir Arthur Sullivan, half of the well-known Gilbert & Sullivan, of heart failure, aged 58. In addition to his operatic compositions, he also wrote "St. Gertrude", which achieved everlasting fame as the melody to "Onward Christian Soldiers".

In the absence of any objections, the DDP has been updated for the death of Roger Guillemin. Any objections raised henceforth will be ignored.

Not to mention Jimmy Carter's impressive achievement of lasting eleven and a half month of the year by mid-November!

Unless anyone can provide a compelling reason not to award "Roger Guillemin" points I shall do so shortly; seems to me all the qualification criteria have been met.

Re wannamkers link to The Times website, the DDP rules specify "thetimes.co.uk" but that seems to redirect to "thetimes.com", at least thats what I'm finding - anyone else finsing this too, or is it just me? Even Anthony Epstein's obit link in the DDP, which is entered as "thetimes.co.uk" etc, redirects to "thetimes.com"

If you can post a screenshot which includes the mention and the Times URL I think that would satisfy the rules.

One Bee Gees drummer dying is unfortunate, two might be described as a

Sandra Gilbert obituary.

Not my sort of music, so I'm only assuming he was a big deal, electronic DJ producer J Saul Kane being RIPed a lot on the Twitter aka Depth Charge, The Octagon Man, and appropriately enough Grimm Death

Outfielder Al Ferrara, World Series winner with the LA Dodgers reported dead aged 84.

Technically, this is a QO for Roy Haynes, but blink and you'll miss it!

I watched that years ago on a recommendation from here (search reveals it was 15 years ago, recommendation from @themaninblack). Agreed, excellent, and still no desire (despite it being on streaming for yonks) to see the Mel Gibson version.

You might (might not, of course) find this interesting, from 2014. Someone asking the same question. Most examples seem to be from sport.

Damn you Hughes! This the closest my "Five Minute Bell Ends" team has got to a hit, and would have got the unnatural bonus too.

"Curled up and dyed"

UKIPper and Brexiteer Roy Wood is 78. Made some good music in his time (as well as that godawful Christmas song).

Nott selected in DDP.

Helen O'Hara is 68 today. Most famous as the violinist in Dexy's Midnight Runners' shes also had a solo career and a long partnership (well, there was 25 years break) with Tanita Tikaram (as well as 'retiring' for raise a family).

A DDP pick for MST3K. Watch out for QOs!

Louise Frometernal is 50 today.
