David Cairns, current MP for Inverclyde and the first person to resign from government in protest over Gordon Brown's leadership dead at 44.

No longer walking: Wouter Weylandt (subs check this joke works?)

Hitch in Vanity Fair on what it's like to lose your voice to cancer.

Bin Laden was more accurate off the tee.

I think in future years we'll talk about The Living End 2011 in the same way we talk about Brazil 1970 or AC Milan 1994 or the first year of Johnny Vaughan and Denise van Outen on the Big Breakfast.

A unique pick for the Living End... Who would have guessed. RIP. He's made the Wolverhampton Express and Star, you've just gotta see if he can crack the nationals now...

Yeah, in fairness that post of mine is a grammatical bomb site. I'll rewrite it when I'm less hungover.

Well that put the cat among the pigeons (birdies?). Seve's tumor pulled a mulligan on him last night and that means that only two IDPers are still 100% clean, Rotten Ali and Garn2 proving that DeathList maxim that if you put your faith in Clive Dunn not dying, you should be OK. DDT and Madame Defarge are the only other two players on minus 20 or more. Congratulations to Time, Bert Tratumann and Mr. 3374 for picking Seve as the man most likely to make it through the year, as well. EST 1993 is still bottom of the table, but, hey, there's all to play for. 1= STAB_in-the_DARK (Rotten Ali) 0 points 1= Garn2 0 points 3. DevonDeathTrip -19 points 4.

Digger Choules' death has no impact on the scores, but what with Ballesteros being on death watch we could have a big shake up in the standings by the end of today.

I'm pretty sure that videos a fake Are we doing forum awards? Because this guy right here is poster of the year.

not any more there's not ! http://www.newsday.com/entertainment/tv/tv...-died-1.2856940 This week we've had Cooper, Henry Cooper, Ted Lowe AND Bin Laden...can't believe not one of them was on the official DL! Maybe not too long to wait for success #5? Ted Lowe is the only one of those who really "feels" like a DL pick tbh, and even then I don't think the committee are that big on snooker?

Presumably he could smile without them.

That will explain Obamas descision to bury him at sea! ...

10,000 forum points to anyone who can guess who it's going to be.

Cooper's death is on the front page of every UK newspaper this morning except the Guardian and the Independent. Why does the left hate Britain so much?

Eight years to the day that George Bush did his "Mission Accomplished" speech in Iraq, fact fans.

Three worthy contenders.

As was pointed out to me elsewhere, this means that only Maggie is left alive from Bjørge Lillelien's most famous piece of sports commentary.

Looks like the family reunion is on. Henry Cooper dead at 76. Pour a 40oz of Brut out.

Time to cue the "WE ARE STAYING UP I SAY WE ARE STAYING UP" chants for us as the Cobblers won their first game in NINETEEN FUCKING MATCHES today to ensure we're not playing non-league football at the end of the season. In mid-January we were one match off a play-off spot.

Personally I'm looking forward to the next royal wedding- Prince Harry and Katie Price. It's bound to happen lets face it! I don't think our Katie would stoop that low.

Alice Ward, mother of Mickey Ward and thus portrayed on the big screen in the recent movie The Fighter, dead at 79.

You'd have thought Hugh Grant would have perhaps made sure he didn't have any scandalous affairs on his conscience before he went trying to zing the entire Murdoch empire the other week. Mans out here bringing knives to a gun fight.
