He will be on the TV Baftas. Cribbins was despite all his films. Ncis was bloody huge with pensioners btw over here. Gran loves it. Guess you can't have Jessica Fletcher on tv every day!

I was genuinely surprised and heartened to see how well he was looking given his health issues.

Goal scorer in the famous Battle of Santiago, QO a cert imo. "Let's hope they never face again." No no David, let's hope they draw each other more often. The ref was so upset by Toro and both teams antics that he later invented the red card. True story!

He wants to go, let the poor man go.

Eileen Atkins last I heard was still a regular visitor to her frail best friend Jean Marsh.

Judi Denchs memory still works brilliantly and she's a conversationalist, but going very blind and prone to falls. Her family are keeping more of a closer eye on her these days. Joan Plowright is iirc completely blind. Virginia McKenna looks great for her age. Ditto the great Sian Phillips. Isn't Maggie Smith unwell? There's been rumours for a while and I'm sure someone confirmed it recently, unless my memory cheats? (It frequently does!)

Gave me a turn, there, with this thread being updated.

Source? A reminder you are not a parent.

Yeah, though apparently controversially. Allegedly it was decided to have her on the 2002 DL only after that decision several drinks were drunk and they forgot to add her to the list. At least that was the gist of a Cmme argument on here years ago.

Because he's already been moved to the memorial page. https://www.genarians.com/in-memoriam-current.html

Robert Wyatt in declining health and with rapidly diminished memory, sadly.

One of the debates among the forum wrestling nerds a few years ago were if 80s nutter Billy Jack Haynes would obit. Well he's not dead for now but I'd say 100% an qo name now after he's lived up to his reputation of maybe killing someone in the past by definitely killing his wife in a botched murder suicide.

That's my oldies team. So here's hoping!

She pretty much makes the one she's a villain in watchable all by herself.

I feel a bit better then, as a political nerd I'd never heard of her either!

Because in the last fifty years the helicopter crash rate in the UK is around 1 every three years, making your chances of dying in a helicopter less likely than being killed by a cow in mainland UK. Worldwide it's slightly higher than planes but again below deadly cows. I apologise for any new fear of mooing objects.

Is it the election yet?

Remember late year murmurs often come from two sources. 1. People trying to psyche out DDP opponents. Also known as The Spade Cooley. 2. People who aren't good at deadpools.

FFS!!!! Looking it up, apparently The Guardian didn't give Andree Melly an obit either by looks of it.

If even a quarter of the vast numbers of people this government claim were left wing extremists actually were we'd have statues of eternal leader Tony Benn every fucking where.

With no confirmation either way (in general, not blaming you!), annoyingly, he's annoying on my Hares team. Andree Melly died in Ibiza so the location would be accurate, but the news if true has completely skipped by most of the folk I thought would be on it. There's always a Stage reference... eventually.

A wise man once said, to notice someone is missing you have to remember they exist.

@Bibliogryphon Edward de Souza is still on my theme team and will be there till he drops.

See next time @Joey Russ tells me someone looks very ill, can you all remind me not to be a sceptic. Ta.

Damn, Michael Jayston is a hell of a loss (not to put shade on Pike here).
