    Dead Pop Stars

    It doesn't have bad associations for me, I just think it's shite. RIP anyhow.

    Sad Last Days

    The mention elsewhere of this thread reminded me to check up on my favourite royal correspondents. Man, Dying Queen is making Zsa Zsa look weak willed at this rate for grasp on life...

    Ideas And Possibilities For 2018

    Fairly high profile UK politician during the Blair and Brown years. A zealot Blair supporter. She was in charge of the government part of the London 2012 bid, promoted gambling, Rupert Murdoch and anti-BBC-ness. One of those people who rose far because of who they supported while other better people got the heave in favour of yes people, you might say - but so was John Ashcroft and he'd be a Slam dunk Qualifying obit if he had brain cancer, too.

    Derby Dead Pool 2017

    Saw Patrick Cryne in the crowd during Channel 5's not very good Goal Rush show. Looked like another 3 and a bit months is completely beyond him, tbh. Could wind up the pivotal hit this year.

    Wrestlers/actors

    Not to undersell the moment, Joey, but if Trump and North Korea blow up the world tomorrow, it'll only be the second worst thing to happen this week.

    Aye, but look at how many DDP teams she was on back then...

    Political Frailty

    Mo Mowlam kept her terminal diagnosis secret, but I suspect modern Deathlisters would have spotted it.

    Political Frailty

    Well, that goes without saying, but it depends how ill she is - many different types of brain cancer after all.

    One to keep an eye on.

    10. Mel Brooks

    I can now foresee Joey's three bandwagons to try and get people onto the 2018 Crowdsourced List.. 1) Stan Lee 2) Mel Brooks 3) Javier Perez de fucking Ceullar

    Death And The Scrabble Deficit

    Re-reading this thread on the bump, and I was curious to find I need to live till September 2022 to beat my own Scrabble Deficit! Ooh, random buses, Donald Trump, being Glaswegian: the pitfalls are endless!

    Authors Last A Long Time, But....

    If he gets the obit, Sir Creep deserves all the praise in the world, for sticking with him when others went double jeopardy: thinking he were a fraud and not thinking he'd get the QO...

    Harry Dean Stanton

    Skeritt, Holm, Kotto, Cartwright, Weaver in order.
  15. Yes, it'll be bigger. 2017 is a bigger number than 2016. Done.

    Harry Dean Stanton

    Hmm, the (human) cast of Alien appear to be dying in order. Look out, Tom Skerritt.

    Damn, that's a shame.

    No deaths? Belongs in the Shit Terrorism Thread...

    Last Word

    Peter Hall, JP Donleavy, Kate Millett, Edward du Cann. Unusually, a Last Word episode you could probably have predicted 100% of in advance!

    Photographers

    That reduces my list of notable 1913 births to 9 names, though I am naturally far too polite to starting a fucking poll on them!

    Dead Drummers

    I hadn't actually heard of them, but aim to rectify this ASAP.

    Ideas And Possibilities For 2018

    Some people are just born looking 88, tbh.

    Missing In Action

    If he's not found (alive) by tonight, he's dead, like that CBBC presenter. Mark Speight? Paddington Station or there abouts?

    Missing In Action

    While taking the wean to school, I can confirm I did not see Clarke Carlisle out and about Glasgow.
