http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/2012/feb/26/erland-josephson Ingmar Bergman regular Erland Josephson,88 who had been suffering from Parkinsons disease has died. In addition to his work in Bergman films he had some great performances in films by acclaimed Directors Andrei Tarkovsky and Theo Angelopoulus.

With the passing of his life partner actress Lina Romay at the age of 57 last week, the Cult/Horror Spanish Director Jesus Franco who turns 82 in a few months and is wheelchair bound seems like a good candidate for 2013 and a plausibly good pick for anyone who took him this year.

I kept him off my DDP team thinking he would not get an obit.

http://robhasawebsite.com/survivor-one-world-kourtney-moon.html Kourtney Moon,29 from the newest season of Survivor underwent surgery this week to have a cancerous tumor removed.The site that interview her said they are waiting further test results. A pretty obscure pick for any kind of deathpools criteria but she is one to keep a look out for.

Zsa Zsa for sure

Her families money grub squabbles had me sure she would be propped up until the fall.

Thumbs up to those who took the chance on Janklow

I am glad the committee followed my advice on adding Robin Gibb.

I vote Fats Domino since he is on none of my teams.

2012 is too soon for Fidel he has his heart set on Celeb BB.

I'm not sure if the Committee* can put Mubarak on the list. There is a real chance he could be executed, and if he is that technically wouldn't be a hit - unless I am confusing my deathlist unwritten rules with the DDP rules? *I am aware it is the Committee's list, and that they can do what they want - even move the goal post. Ethan Zohn: Oh feck! I forgot all about him. I'm not sure about his obit chances. That asside, I can see no reason for not choosing him. Wouldn't Mubarak count if he was sentenced later in the year? I can't remember if he's still in a coma or not. Zohn might scrape an obit, I think the BBC did one on a contestant for Amazing Race a couple of months ago, so there's always a chance. But with Zohn's charity connections.... who knows YESS!! LOL That was one of his several other tv appearances. He was a contestant with his girlfriend on the last season of the Amazing Race, unless you mean a European version. But yeah, I dont think he'll have obit trouble. I forget which version of Amazing Race it was, but it was someone who was in the first series / season of it that died a couple of months ago. The contestant was Nancy Hoyt who raced with her daughter Emilie . The only place I heard about her passing a few weeks ago is message board for the show Amazing Race. Unless that show is a lot more popular in the UK I would say that's one of the more obscure people I can think of getting a Obit. If she got one I think Ethan would be close to a lock.

2012 seems like one of those years a lot of former Heads Of States kick the bucket. I am thinking most or all of Kim Jong Il, Piet de Jong,Robert Mugabe, George HW Bush and Yitzhak Shamir won't see out the year

Sparky Anderson one of the top 3 or so baseball manager of the last 40 years did not get a UK Obit. Carters chances are likely slimmer then his even.

Some more names to add http://en.wikipedia....v%C4%9Br%C3%A1k Zdenek Zverak 75 year old Czech Actor/Writer who's 1997 film Kolya won an Oscar and GG for Best Foreign Film, and was nominated at the Bafta and European Film awards so his obit chances look highly likely when he croaks. Not sure if he has any health problems but he is already older then the avg life excpectancy for a male from his country so I guess he is a distint possibity. http://en.wikipedia....anda_Montenegro Fernando Montenegro the first Brazilian Actor to be ever get an Oscar nomination turned 82 last month. She is still actively working and could still be around a long time though. http://en.wikipedia..../Norma_Aleandro Norma Aleandro 75 is the Meryl Streep of Argentina As a Best Actress winner at Cannes Oscar nominee for her 1st Hollywood film Her 2nd Hollywood film being directed by James Ivory in 2009 I would say whenever she passes her UK Obit chances are almost certain.
