    The Hare's Death Pool

    Well damn, that's a sad loss. Marvelous actor. If you are into period drama, Dickens of London was good stuff, and last I checked, on YouTube.

    Charlotte Rae

    Looks almost Drop 40-ish.
  3. He was also a villain in an episode of a popular family time travel show that I don't really mention much.

    Harper Lee

    Can see why some folk in Mississippi might feel challenged by a book exposing racism, tbh.

    Derby Dead Pool 2017

    I wanted to test the Daily Mail's copy and paste skills on John Benoit, super obscure American politician (dogcatcher or something in California) but he ruined that by dying on December 30th. So Busby it was. Of course, that only works if the main team wasn't filled with daft picks, but you know, you live and learn. Unless you are Busby, of course.

    Ideas And Possibilities For 2018

    I think Bowen is always subconsciously on my mind as a potential pick, hence the reserve team name this year.

    Gay Byrne

    Oh I don't think Bryne is in much danger this side of Hogmanay, no. Talking in general terms above, not the specific case.

    Derby Dead Pool 2017

    Did Busby die? I missed that. A case of trusting the source (charon) but not the chaps ability to obit, so I put him on the reserves team as a sort of test.

    Gay Byrne

    Either that, or if this years list does break the record it's going to do it by a few, not just 15/50...
  10. Madrid? They're sending you to deal with Catalonia now, too? You must be good!

    Halloween

    This cold is clearly Trump's fault.

    The Dead Of 2017

    Ah, remember the motto of life. Expect More Death Tommorow I'd add: and hope it isn't your own!

    Leah Bracknell

    She wants top spot next year.
  14. Surely Deathlisty, agreed. Astin, of course, was in one of the all time great films: the Italian spoof horror Silence of the Hams.

    (Return Of) The Celebrity Split List

    I thought that's why he went out with the ultra-wooden Kristen Stewart.

    Football

    David Moyes was the favourite last I heard. FFS.

    Overrated People

    In that case: Meryl Streep - "greatest actress of her generation", allegedly: dull, over-enunicates her dialogue, but at least she's not Faye Dunaway, I guess. Iggy Pop - has a few good songs and takes his top off. HP Lovecraft - turgid unreadable prose and racist as fuck 90% of the time, 5% of the time he wrote a decent tale. Dutch National Teams Total Football - Did it win the World Cup? Nope. Meanwhile Germany's own brand Total Football won 4, and 3 Euros to boot. imo, of course.

    DL Dead Pools

    Deathrace is one of the big 3 alongside the DDP and Hartlepool Deadlypool. Of course there'll be interest imo.

    George Bush Senior

    Hey, Panamanian deadpoolers are delighted I've extended my DDP luck this year to other forms of prediction...
  20. At the risk of bringing a pet topic into every available thread, I'll just note that I thought they improved towards the end (Fenric gets in a great cast and script, imo) but by then, the Beeb was running it against Corrie. And those were the days when it wasn't just Deathray who watched Corrie.

    Football

    USA eliminated from the World Cup, in qualifying. That sort of thing never happened under Obama. Panama qualified instead.

    20th Century Americans Sitcoms

    True story. On January 1st 2015, I looked at the DDP team Death Impends put up, and thought to myself "He picked an I Love Lucy scriptwriter? That's obscure!" I'd misread Schuller for Schiller.

    Football

    I used to buy World Soccer for Grumpy Brian's train of thought, but now they just put them online anyhow...
