    The Dead of 2018

    A bunch of creative in the know types posting about it on Facebook, so I think it could be true. Obit might be a few days off though, as tends to be the case with old school actors/actresses - the nerds hear well ahead of the press!

    Hearing Bella Emberg (actress) has died aged 80. Link to follow (or apology given death reports this week!)

    Deathrace 2018

    I forgot about that! They did respond, by making one of us a forum admin. Luckily, it was the one who understood basic html stuff..

    Deathrace 2018

    I was quite sympathetic to his plight until then, but on topic actually, this meant Maryport got to advance to face Spade! Ok, not so much of a reward there.

    Deadpool Detective Work

    Degree in 1968, so born 1946/7? Which allows me to put him into the company director stats site, and brings up a June 1946 birth for Dr Arthur Roger Mugford, who does all these pet and dog things, so I'd presume is the guy you want?

    Wrestlers/actors

    According to Lanny Poffo (Notes for non-fans: Macho Man's brother) and others, Fred Ottman (aka Tugboat, Typhoon, Shockmaster) is having yet more health issues. Mentioned several times in this thread, including last year when YWillz accidentally killed him off prematurely.

    Summer Olympic Deaths/Dead Medallists

    "Anthropocentrism is is the belief that human beings are the most significant entity of the universe." One day Rad is going to subconsciously put that into a school exam and Deathlist will be responsible for his subsequent university career.

    And to think they call folk on this forum vultures!

    Willie Nelson

    I am actually surprised by the number of folk who've never heard of him, certainly not on a Willie Nelson level. (Despite being half of the Highwaymen!) Undoubtedly, but unlikely to be him, given his whole dying last year bit?

    Donald J Trump

    Think on the brightside, the Queens disdain for Trump for once saves the UK millions in state visit public expenses, you know, bodyguards, tanning booths, etc...

    Deathrace 2018

    The Deathlist Cup needs immediate winners and losers to get the next Round going immediately ala a Cup, and is run by a very anti-social and grumpy Scot, so the general response would be "ain't that a shame" just like if someones pick dies on the 31st but we don't find out till the 4th and they've been eliminated already. Chalk it up to incompetent refs like that N Ireland/Swiss penalty or the Arsenal/Sheff United semifinal from a few years back. I'm chilled as long as no one does a Morbid Kid. Hell, I am hoping the random draw brings up Joey v Grim II and I think the public want to see Death Impends v The Dead Cow II (and DDT v Spade) but of course, the draw is entirely random. Anyhow, enough of trailers for a completely different game, when the Deathrace is heating up nicely here, and seemingly earlier than usual too?

    Deathrace 2018

    Yeah, he wouldn't back down! Even when he got stood up at the gates of Hell. Here, the obvious line was there, I went to bed, woke up and no one else had gone for it.

    Oh, what's that bit in Yes Minister again? REPORTER - How about attributing it to "sources close to the Minister". HACKER - Hang on, I don't want everyone knowing it was me!

    Deathlist's deadpool HOF

    Correction. Some of these people lose 6+ DPs a year. Hi!
  16. Hmm, my general view agrees that "6 month breaks" going 2 or more years is usually code for "quiet send off for ill/frail actor". Just found the sudden press interest curious, and I don't watch soaps to know Corrie code, as it were. The only other bit (of a quite interesting post, even if I can imagine others reacting with the same horror anytime I post a lengthy bit on Dr Who!) I can expand on is that I did see that ITV Greatest ever show, and yes, it was bollocks. Mrs msc thought Roache was looking very old, though she was also surprised as she'd thought he was only in his 70s now. I was mostly struck by how old John Cleese looks now.
  17. For lack of anywhere better to put it: FAO Deathray: Apparently there's rumblings Derbyshire will return to Corrie imminently on social media? Because they mentioned her characters back in the country last week on the show. I only know the show through deadpooling, but you seem to like it...

    Political Frailty

    This year is the 100th anniversary of Caerphilly constituency being founded. In that time, it has voted for Labour in every single election, and so has been held by a Labour MP... for 98 of those 100 years. In 1981, the current MP, Ednyfed Hudson Davies, decided to cross the floor to the SDP. He subsequently lost his seat in 1983, after jumping to Basingstoke. Had he remained Labour, he'd have had a safe seat his entire life. Anyhow, he's apparently dead aged 88. (There are links, but they're in Welsh...)
  19. 11 days into the year, it's too early to say what picks will be what.

    Sky now going with dead. It's a reverse of the Mail and Mirror, who changed their "dead" to "life support". This is Sky's life support article changed to dead...

    Deathrace 2018

    Hahah. Actually at this point I think I would qualify for Deathrace points at the very least (to not do so would be a crushing ego deflation), but hopefully not for some time quite yet.

    Deathrace 2018

    So, any single hit before June 10th will win it for me. This feels like the prime choke position tbh.
