    People Who Are Dead According To Wikipedia...

    As suggested when she hit the centenary in "The 100 Club", she got a QO.

    FIFA World Cup Players

    One of the most memorable and thrilling football matches of my lifetime, and it's weird both the manager and player who masterminded it are no longer with us. And yet El Hadji Diouf lives.

    Foreign Personalities, From Stage, Screen, Politics And Life

    April Boy Regino, singer/entertainer who for a while was one of the biggest Filipino stars, both in the country and among the diaspora, dead at 59. Flips loved him so not a surprise he made it to a full-blown QO.

    Statistics

    Even checking for colonial babbies who were born there when it was called Zanzibar, no names come up. April Olrich, ballerina and character actress who died in 2014, wasn't a DDP pick, neither was Rob-Roy-actor-turned-Labour MP Andrew Faulds, who went in 2000.

    Am I right in my (30-second google) belief that Tanzania is the world's largest country that lacks a DDP hit?

    Who Should Make The Deathlist In 2021?

    The refusal to bestow a berth to Glynis is the greatest disgrace in DL history

    Keith Richards....will He Make It To 2012?

    Keith Richards as this "mad crazy drug-fuelled libertine" is just a 60s meme though, right? HE SMOKED A MARIJUANA. HE HAD TWO SPEEDS ON HIM. His drug consumption would put him in the bottom half of the British population in 2020.

    Who Should Make The Deathlist In 2021?

    Are there any "Deathlist-y" names hitting the requisite age right now other than Cribbins? John Astin feels like a DL pick but he's in perfectly healthy age from what I understand.

    Wrestlers/actors

    The last great casting coucher of professional wrestling, allegedly. Chris Harris and Abyss both had to, ahem, show him some body work to get their TNA pushes.

    Diego Maradona

    Bit harsh to suggest Cruyff is in hell with the wifebeater and the mob stooge.

    Diego Maradona

    I'm going to assume most Argentine newspapers would have had a Diego obit prepared since 1988.

    Diego Maradona

    Argentine media now saying he's dead.

    Diego Maradona

    Argentine press reporting he has suffered a cardiac arrest and is in "serious condition". Nothing outside of Argentina yet other than people parrotting that source.

    Deadpool Detective Work

    Mentioned a few times here on the forum, and a former DDP pick as well, does anyone know for definite that Ronald "Dr. Dante" Pellar is still alive? The sixth and final husband of Lana Turner, he was a stage hypnotist and conman, who did numerous prison terms for - among other things - running a degree mill. He claimed to have been born any time from 1920 to 1930, and his "official backstory" that he was the sole survivor in his family from a militia attack in Singapore before emigrating to the US to sell watches on the streets, seems fantastical. So Ronald Pellar may not actually be his real name. Said he was dying of cancer in 2006, was definitely alive in 2010 when a documentary was made about him (he was living in a mobile home at the time), but very little info since. This interview with fellow hypnotist Terry Stokes refers to him in the past tense but idk if that's an assumption rather than knowledge.

    Damn, you know you're old when the nerdy guy from The Breakfast Club gets his own DeathList thread.

    Journalists

    Paul Callan, long-time Daily Mirror columnist, familiar face from What The Papers Say back in the day, very "old school" Fleet Street type, dead at 81.
