    The Dead of 2018

    Nah, you're thinking of Aznavour. This is Aznovoice, must have been lesser known...

    The 10th Death of 2018

    Absolutely nobody at all picked Aznavour. It happens.

    Charles Aznavour

    Surprisingly sudden, for a 94 year old, so to speak. Anyhow, I think that's all 10 of the 1974 And Then There Were None lot gone now? No, Elke Sommer lives, so one left.

    He was looking rough on Pointless Celebs a few years back.

    What do you expect? Kanye has the IQ of a vibrator.

    Derby Dead Pool 2018

    The Mail has a QO for Bob Jane, who is unique for DDP veterans Mr and Mrs Drummerboy. Also, it's been brought to my attention that Dave's Dead...etc doesn't have the Drop 40 bonus for Rayya Elias for some reason, so bringing that up, too.

    Only Famous For Being Ill And Dying

    Just for completeness, dead. Not linking, too FFBI only, all the usual QOs have the sob story though. Not picked by anyone here on anything - good show, team.

    Ideas and Possibilities for 2019

    ^ The joke has been done before, but rest assured it's on all of our minds.

    Now now, don't fight, you can ALL find me one of the more eloquent, witty and amazing posters on here, I don't mind.

    Authors Last A Long Time, But....

    It's a fancy dan word for "chap (or chapess, of course) who writes all the bits that aren't the songs in a musical", or a fucking playwright as it's also known. You know, all the Nazi bits that don't involve Liza Minelli singing about being a lesbian for drugs or what not...

    Also, Feud is getting repeated on BBC4 on Sunday and so will be on the Iplayer if you were interested and hadn't found it on torrent or what not ages ago.

    Political Frailty

    Don't worry, they are reading him his daily dose of Deathlist Forum posts. "Mr Muoi, you wont believe what Mr Drol has posted. No, stop laughing it is bad for your recovery, even if you are immortal..."

    Johnny Clegg

    Aye, though remember LFN, Downie *made* the front page. The Cmme are unto their own, and don't listen to anyone, but sometimes they really love a sitting duck...

    Johnny Clegg

    Yeah, he certainly know how to keep order. Let's face it. They're the only ones who could in a place like this.

    Johnny Clegg

    Education. And the wine. We'd certainly miss that if they left.

    Johnny Clegg

    The considerably far less famous Gord Downie got much the same reaction, and wound up on the list, so you can see why the thread starter thought there was precedent. Also, for the record, Clegg is far more likely to qualify for the Drop 40 bonus in 2019 than being unique.

    Johnny Clegg

    South African former anti-apartheid activist musician big in Africa but liked over here by the... Old Grey Whistle Test type music fan.

    Play School - Play Away - Childrens TV

    ^ I hated that fucking song too, tbh! As for... That's better. Also produced one of the best photoshop pisstakes in Doctor Who Magazine - even if only comprehensible to Biblio and Willz...

    Play School - Play Away - Childrens TV

    Yep, me too. Also Fraggle Rock. Basically all of the Henson stuff was over like rover here. Both were shown here - before my time - so the stars might get obits. Hah, yeah, it's good for that. I was older at the time but for younger family members I quite liked the US shows Animaniacs and Recess for that same reason - so many gags aimed at the older audience watching with the younger siblings/kids/etc.
