    Not the first time Talk Talk have been painfully slow and innacurate when it comes to internet updates.

    Let Us Bet On The Oscars 'in Memoriam' Package

    Apparently Finney won at 14s, bit of a shock tbh.

    Delayed Death Reaction

    Bunch of people on Twitter mourning the death of Dukes of Hazzard star James Best, who died four years ago.

    The 100 Club

    While researching the final DDP pick photos, I came across this picture of never-going-to-obit German artist Helma Holthausen-Krull: She's in the middle. That photo was taken when she was allegedly 98. I don't think I've ever seen a 98-year-old in that fine fettle. She's now 102 but I can't see her going anywhere if that's her level.

    Shamima Begum. 2020 list?

    More importantly though, will Shamima Begum claim yet another victim: Stacey Solomon and Joe Swash's relationship?

    Time Added

    Well done to the three who picked her, like most I thought she had much longer left. She becomes the first ever person born in the 2000s to be a DDP hit, as well as the youngest hit since the ban on under-18s was introduced.

    The Dead of 2019

    Took a couple of weeks, but she's QO'd.

    Shamima Begum. 2020 list?

    Yeah, I think I concur. As far as I can make out the last living one was a guy called Robert Chipchase who died in 2012. Upon his return to Australia, instead of being charged with treason, he was awarded his full military pension. Crazy Ozzies.....

    Only Famous For Being Ill And Dying

    Nope, she wasn't. Which was probably the right choice at the time, but when she cropped back up in the news in January it was clear she'd be a QO.

    Shamima Begum. 2020 list?

    On a related note, are any of the British Free Corps still alive? Brief Wikipedia-ing seems to suggest no...

    Meaning that of the last 17 DDP hits, only one was a woman. #timesup

    Fat And Fearless

    Sean Milliken, topped the scales at 900lbs, dead at 29. Despite only appearing on one episode of My 600-lb Life he was one of the more controversial figures in the show's history, as he showed little interest in taking care of himself.

    Political Discussions And Ranting Thread

    The thing is, and I've not seen this really written about anywhere, is that if our politics becomes ever more left/right split, in a two-party system that ironically gives a lot of power to third-party centrists because they become kingmakers in a hung parliament. Especially if Labour refuse to offer a second referendum in Scotland, effectively ruling out any power-share with the SNP. The Tiggers could only take 20 seats at an election and that'd still be enough to make them the prettiest girl to ask out for prom. If I was a betting man, Chuckie U to be deputy PM after the next election would be a lock.

    Yeah, there's a really dull reason for this and I always forget to change it. I'll put it on the to-do list.

    Football

    Pro Piacenza, in Italy's Serie C, were told they had to play today (rather than forfeit) or would be kicked out of the league. So they have taken to the field with seven players. Their captain, who is 18, is also the current manager. It's not going too well, here's the half-time score: EDIT: They did bring eight players with them, but one of them forgot his identity documents and thus is ineligible to play.

    Only Famous For Being Ill And Dying

    And what makes it even worse for those who chose her is that it appears she actually died in December 2018, according to this post on a Motorcycle Club FB page.
