    Dear American, Neville Neville was the father of the former England international (association) footballers Gary and Phil Neville. Due to his repetitive nomenclature, as well as serving as the players' agent during Manchester United's very successful spell at the end of the 90s, he achieved a degree of fame and often had his named chanted in the ground. He was also a former professional cricketer, the father of the former captain of the England netball team and was at one point charged with noncing, although he was found not guilty.

    Sir John Hurt

    Judging by the main event match, I'd say 1967. Gilmour didn't debut until 1962 and I don't think that "The French Teddy Boys" (an anglicised bastardisation of their real name Les Blousons Noirs) came over to the UK until the late 60s. Leon Arras was, of course, the ring name of Brian Glover.

    I was hoping to do some research to provide a legitimate reason why Doctor Who is more important than wrestling by going back through the DL hits and seeing how many of them had appeared in Doctor Who compared with how many were wrestlers. The results do not disprove my theory but it is by no means a crushing blow. Doctor Who 2 (Anna Wing & Michael Gough) Wrestling 0 However I have decided to inflate the Doctor Who score to five because Michael Gough played two different roles and I am including Roy Castle and Mary Whitehouse So 5 - nil. In ashes term that is a whitewash You are forgetting perhaps one of the DL's most-discussed picks was also a grappler (in the legal sense of the term):

    The 11th Death Of 2015

    After a few left-field deaths, feel like we're due an obvious one. Joao Havelange, but not for a good six weeks.

    iirc, an investigation into on-file evidence about his ex-girlfriend accidentally falling over and accidentally smashing her head repeatedly on a curb after an argument with Jimmy is currently underway and ready to present. I'm sure this news is just a coincidence.

    Got the muse in my head, she's universal - I'm a Nancy boy

    Sad Last Days

    On this week's National Enquirer, Kirstie Alley has "two years to live" with friends worried over her "battle with deadly disease". I think the deadly disease in question is "cakes".

    Betty Driver Memorial Soapstar Superstar Thread

    I think, because she was the first ever barmaid in the Rovers, she might even sneak a quick 10 second mention before the break on News at 10 assuming its a quiet day.

    Missing In Action

    The thread about the patatas bravas aficionados is to be found here. We've been following this story at the highly professional, prominent and marquee media organisation I work for. Fascinating tale of how some dead girl's body has turned up despite no girls being reported missing anywhere in the local area for about ten years. But the odds on it being our Mad are somewhat equivalent to those of Ranieri lasting a whole season at the Foxes.

    The Dead Of 2015

    Britain's 29th richest man, Chris Lazari, is unable to take it with him aged 69. A high school dropout who came to the UK aged 16 with just £20 to his name, he washed dishes for years to earn enough money to study fashion and eventually set up a London-based property empire including the Brunswick Shopping Centre. And if you believe that "rags to riches pull your socks up" bullshit story of his success, I have a bridge to sell you. In West London.
