Unique hit for Blueberry Crumble when the QO comes in.

20 years ago today, Inter Milan drew 1-1 with Manchester United and Hull went down.

Goody, Baggs, Thalassitis. The holy trinity.

Okwui Enwezor, art critic/historian and curator of the 2015 Venice Biennale, dead at 55. There had been some talk of his cancer in the art world last year.

Are you the only man on Twitter not blocked by Terfy Glin?

For those on the QO hunt, The Times is clearly cleaning out a backlog. Of the four obituaries published today, three (transgender drone pioneer Bobbi Swan, archaeologist Roger Mercer and Wrecking Crew member Joe Osborn) died in 2018.

This is the complete one-off list, including the already dead. Other than Cher, the most likely "next up" surely has to be recurrent skin-cancer's very own Hugh Jackman?

Good question. So Rita Moreno is still in sterling health as the One Day at a Time reboot shows (best fixed-camera sitcom since the genre's golden days?) and Mel Brooks could make 100, so we could be looking at the health-issued ALW or Whoopi going first. As for the one-off-an-EGOTters.... Cher is one off, needing a Tony to complete the quartet, and a jukebox musical based on her songs will be eligible for the 2019 Tonys....

Feel like Charon should have a better one, his current is a bit "internet circa 2002".

If we can get to 100 hits by Easter, we could be looking at a record-breaking year. Although we've had some false dawns before...

Another Cheltenham week... surely this will be the one where Alan Brazil's arteries and/or liver finally go "fuck this shit"? A picture from earlier today, for form-studying purposes.

NHL Hall of Famer and DDP pick Harry Howell dead at 86.

Greece's greatest ever basketball player not good enough for you?

Definitely dead, I saw Barry Hearn pay tribute to him on Twitter.

DDT is currently cursing People I Think Might Die In 2019 United for denying him a unique hit.

DDP pick Michael Gielen dead at 91. Obits only in German so far, but I assume an English languager will be along in due course.

Yeah, I saw that story go around first and then be followed up later by the "life support" report. Also, clicking through to IAFD, how the fuck is this legal?

Violet Rain on "life support" after an apparent drug overdose.

His erection's finally gone down then?

Probably the last truly legendary American mob figure. The character of Tony in “West Side Story” was based on him, and a number of crime historians suggest he was one of the two masked gunmen who killed Albert Anastasia.

Not any more. Dick "The Destroyer" Beyer has died at 88.

Is Ken Nordine the new #1 in this list? His death was the #3 news item on BBC World Service the day he died.

September 1994: Roy Castle Billy Wright (the footballer, not the prod) James Clavell Terence Young Jessica Tandy Vitas Gerulaitis Karl Popper Franco Moschino

DDP pick. Here's the QO.
