One of her ex-staff writing in the Mail today paints a fairly grim picture of her............ Her ex-husband George Sanders may have said being with Zsa Zsa was like permanently swimming in vintage bubbly, but the truth is she is more cyanide than champagne. An overriding narcissistic ego, an outrageous temper and a vindictive love of making defenceless people ­suffer, combined with foul-mouthed racism and a scant regard for the truth, make her easily the most unpleasant person it has ever been my misfortune to meet.

I thought he was one of the obscure Pommies I didn't know untl you mentioed that and it clicked with me that it is the bloke who played Onslow! Poor old Onslow is dying!!! He is one of my role models... He was a lazy vest wearing tinny drinking bastard of the 1st magnitude - top quality bloke. Although why he never dumped his missus (Daisy) and had a stab at her short skirted sister Rose ............ was always beyond me. And lets not forget his portrayal of Twiggy in the Royle Family - truly a Man for all Seasons.

I think Kohl would be a banker next year if he manages to survive this one - which looks a bit doubtful.

Surely Dora Saint (aka Miss Read who writes rather twee but very popular nostalgia books about rural schooldays) should be on the 2011 list as she is 98 this year. Agreed - the Saint appears to be queuing for her final book signing. And the Thrush Green series deserves some recognition - apart from appearing in every charity shop bookshelf. However Miss Jones looks fairly poorly having given up the chemo - which seems to make people feel even less chipper.

I notice that Bill Tarmey looks a pretty good bet for 1st result of the year. It looks like his years of ashfelting and smoking have caught up with him finally. I watched Corrie in 1985 as it was the only English programme we could receive, He was there then and good luck to the bloke for playing himself for all those years. I see he had his first major heart attack before he joined the show so perhaps we should not write him off, but not being able to breathe is not normally surviveable. Cheers Jack

I was surprised to see he was still above ground but congratulations on a solid choice - well done.

Mission Oveur! Better than any puns on the word "Graves" that I've spent the last hour trying to think of... Another notch on my DDP stick of mortality though! Gravesend? I was surprised about how aged he had become all of a sudden - he seemed so young but that is the trouble when you watch old TV reruns I suppose

He is good for a wee while I suspect - that was a diplomatic 3 months

Jon Venables could be a surprise addition as his cover has been blown in the unnamed prison in the North East of the country (UK) No tears shed then I suspect.

No sign of C Smith shuffling this morning

Sounds like a good punt - I will try me local bookies - is he still as huge as he was?

Norman Wisdom for me to let him out of the Shadey Pines home for the terminally demented. I never cared for his films or TV but I wouldn't keep a dog in those crappy conditions
