    Deathlist Cup 2022

    Like Cassandra cursed with the gift of foresight but having no ability to change the future, An Fear Baeg books his own downfall. It's not all over now, but BabyBlue takes an early lead as Monica Vitti nabs the Brian Deane award for this year's DL Cup. BabyBlue 4 v. An Fear Beag 0

    Yeah, far too lazy to do analysis and stats to go with this so the above is much appreciated. The field does strike me as very fitting for some shock results - no slam dunks immediately visible and a lot of people who could drop dead tomorrow or could go on December 31st. Should be an interesting round.

    Vicky Phelan to receive the Freedom of Limerick this Thursday, with the ceremony to be livestreamed. Doesn't say if she'll be there in person to accept or if she'll appear by video link, but I'm pretty confident this will be the last public appearance she ever makes.

    Deathlist Cup 2022

    AND WE'RE CLOSED. Sean, Bentrovato and John Key did not submit a team in time, unless I'm blind, so they are eliminated. YorkshireBanker, JoeyRuss and The Old Crem get byes to round 2.
  12. Spade_Cooley

    Deathlist Cup 2022

    4.5 minutes left and three teams still not in. Some of you round 1-ers may be getting a bye at this rate...
  13. Can we get a list going? Also, perhaps you could suggest which celebs you think might be next up to claim it's all the work of 5G masts and George Soros. So far on the music front we have Ian Brown, Van Morrison, and, most importantly, Right Said Fred (both of them). Britain's D-list is well represented with Denise Walsh, Richard Madeley and Matt Le Tissier. Cristiano Ronaldo's sister has reacted to the news he is positive by saying it's a "fraud". Plus if there's some nutjob conspiracy theories going around, you can be sure 90s stoners Woody Harrelson and John Cusack will be giving them the thumbs up. Who else you got?
  14. Spade_Cooley

    Being tweeted by Laraine Newman, so you'd assume she'd know. Former DDP pick (maybe current?), which I know because I wrote it and included the Family Guy gag about him.

    The Muppets (and other puppets)

    Because "voice actors" seems a weird place to put these guys, plus most of the original Henson Workshop mob will be entering their 80s now so they'll be thinking about dropping dead any time soon. You can probably talk about Sesame Street types in here as well, if you must.

    Vince McMahon's mother finally dead at 101.

    The 100 Club

    Unmentioned before on the forum, and one you'd think was probably guaranteed a QO: Morton Mintz joins the 100 Club. He was the journalist who first broke the story that thalidomide was associated with birth defects. Looks in pretty rude health.

    Boxing Clever?

    Volodymyr Virchis found dead at age 44 from hanging. Was one of the "former Soviet bloc fighting out of Germany" gang that dominated the heavyweight division in the mid-00s, beat all the usual British jobbers flown over to lose to him (Julius Francis, Michael Sprott) before his career got derailed by a mixed decision loss to Ruslan Chagaev.

    Will he turn up on his own obituary show? "Marvellous comedian, marvellous marvellous, had the pleasure of working with him once during a dissociative episode".

    People who've got a thread

    Threads for sole individuals should be for: 1) DL names 2) Proper fully-blown A-listers over the age of 85 3) Anyone who is "death mentioned on the News at Ten" famous over the age of 90/with a condition liable to kill them within 18 months 4) Anyone who has a significant illness/health issue/dangerous lifestyle that provides regular content. Which is why Jenny Diski, say, was good for a thread, because she kept tweeting throughout her final weeks, but (looks at someone who won an award that Diski also won) Vikram Seth, even if he had stage 4 cancer, wouldn't.
