    New Year's Honours

    I'd happily sacrifice huge chunks of British rock music before the Reaper got near Palin!

    Alt Obituaries Deadpool

    If you managed less rejected picks than me, you did well. I, err, had 19 DQ'd! A new personal record.
  3. I had that idea but again, nowt under Riddin... drol got there first. She were married to Ken Riddington, producer of House of Cards and Tenko. They have a son, Tim.

    Putting that on my Most Looked Forward To DDP 2019 reveals, alongside The Living End, the usual contenders, Willz's TOTP team and Gooseberry/Predictor's picks, and anything else I forget..

    But was it YOUR big name?

    Might need to skip town for a bit, Willz the Cup could be yours. (FTR Joey is running the Crowdsourced far smoother because not being technology illiterate he isn't reliant on Word Doc and pen and paper...)

    Crashing Companies

    To be honest, I was surprised when I read the story - I thought they'd already gone....

    Peter Lorimer

    I was having a looking around private sources for any news on Lorimer. A few tweets in 2017 made Drol put him on his DDP team, after all, but news has been very quiet. Anyhow, private sources (OK, the Leeds United History lot) have confirmed that Peter Lorimer DOES have brain cancer. The whispers around the Leeds fans are "life threatening" but I don't know the exact type. Just that its significantly cut down his public appearances to nearly sod all, and that the Express made reference to his poor health in the Summer. So there you go, there is fire with the smoke, but I dunno how bad it is.
  9. Yer looking for an Elizabeth A Chambers (born 1933 in Loughbrough, Bracknell) - closest on there is from 2014.

    26. Prunella Scales

    That was increasingly evident in the latest Canals series, even as her physical health seemed better. West looks a mess, imo they'll do a George and Barbara, both gone within a year of the other.

    The Hartlepool Deadlypool

    This forum is basically many hundreds of mentalist* bouncing off each others neuroses, seemingly. *Not just the depressed folk, OCDs, pathics, list obsessives, aspergers, whatever else etc etc.
  13. Grim's list!!!! That's the last time I throw in a gag for you!

    British Character Actors

    Just as a dump for the other interesting pics in that Mail thing on the September 2018 memorial thing for Peter Hall. Peter Bowles (1936) looking like he'll be around for a bit. But Michael Gambon not looking brilliant... Rest (about 30 photos) here.

    Ian Holm

    All this talk of Holm's health and we missed this recent photo (September 2018) in The Mail

    Hospitalised!

    Vervoort in hospital again. Bladder and kidney infection, presumably. Well, either that or cancer.

    Healthiest DDP Team Ever, with joker Donald J Trump (so folk get the joke)?

    Derby Dead Pool 2018

    It's the year of the shit jokers. Me, DI, Joey, Rad, Deadsox, ZZL and others would be top with a successful joker. Late on last year I was tempted to make Falkholt my Joker. Was sorely tempted but in the end risk aversion (and the Holmlund thing) went against her. My own joker lives, Falkholt would have been 24 points and if you look at the current DDP table I am 15 points off the top! Feck. It's the single 1 pick decisions which are the difference between DDP winners and DDP also-rans.
  24. I had SIX INLAWS in my house a few weeks ago and didn't murder any of them. Dunno if that's impressive or disappointing. Anyhow we saw them at weekend so mums today, rest of my lot tomorrow then back to usual antisocial nature.
  25. I thought I was the only one who went "Ooh mince pies" then got disappointed.
