I didn't ask about the 3/4th playoff, and one of our semifinalists is now on holiday till next week, so it'll just be the final. Noriega, then. Agreed, Grim. Heef has been a credit as a newcomer in this Cup, I hope they sticks around and joins a few more of the deadpools. DDT vs Deadsox 0-2 William Henry Harrison Die-in-a-Month Squad (Death Impends) vs Heef 11-8

Way back in...1990? Suspect he would have in 2018, but there was no way he was surviving that far with the public symptoms.

Childrens author. Wrote a whole bunch of books in the 1950s. Not as read today, I don't know. Her stuff is dated but decent enough. Also, very old, but not very notable in the UK.

Caroline Lucas thanks you for your vote. -
Hey if he makes 80, and I'm still about, I'm trying this DDP Yoga.

The old "here's someone dying young", let's not mention they died thing. The Lakovic thing does surprise though: I mean, look at the useless sods getting obits...

Oh, in case you taped the Wee Willie Rennie Q&A for later, it'll help you go to sleep, YW. Dull as hell. -

Corbyn did better than expected against Neil too. Well, compared to May. And Nuttal tonight. -
Dear daily Mail reporters reading this. Please write obits for Lakovic, Suisala and Aspin. Thanks.

Perhaps, but Eric Joyce isn't the best source. He sees plenty of spirits, in a manner of speaking.

YW: Easy way around - always assume Theresa May is talking bollocks. It'll be a useful guide about 9 out of 10 times. -
Aye, and I never found out what that mystery ailment of his was, either.

Hey, it's exactly how I expected to spend my bank holiday. Stoned to high heavens on anti-migraine pills, and looking up morris dancing online.

Nor have any of the old long timers. It's been one new old guy, one MND death, and 3 "frail and ill 50/50ers". Law of averages dictates at least one or two of the regulars will go before December 31st.

A pdf of a magazine which references Noakes's morris dancing days. So, yes.
-
Falk is dead? Damn, that's a shame. Nothing on the BBC yet.
-
Trimmed from the masterlist as we speak. It is an unruly document. Something like 7000 names, and no doubt a whole bunch of doublers. Everytime I go to cut it down, I wind up adding 50 names.
-
Trying to think of a US equivalent for Joey. Mr Rodgers? He's dead of course, but someone huge in kids TV.
-
Country difference, Joey. No one is overshadowing Noakes in the UK. Huge childhood figure for lots of folk aged...35-65, give or take. Well, unless, say, the Queen dies in an hour, of course.

Hmm, I wonder if Kim Jong-un feels paranoid about a plot or something. "Look everyone, some nice missiles to distract you!"

I've not checked it in a few weeks (and the usual "folk might be missing"), but my 1918 list currently stands as: 1918 – Billy Graham, Shinobu Hashimoto, Yasuhiro Nakasone, Martin Pope, Bob Schiller, Guje Lagerwall, Iris Ballard, Hutton Gibson, Jens Skou, Rene de Obaldia, Paul D Boyer, Fay McKenzie, Katherine Johnson, Lloyd Geering, Bobby Doerr, Ivy Bethune, Adolph Kiefer, Brenda Milner, Antonio Candido, Henri Vernes, Frederick Leboyer, Lousise Tobin, T. Berry Brazelton, Josephine Webb, Francis Nye, Edward Giller, Chuck Stevens, Frank Lambert, Doris Grumbach, Paul Farnes, Diana Serra Cary Not many big names there!

GONE WITH NOAKES! 10/50 29th May 2017 Much beloved children's entertainer, John Noakes, has died after a long illness to give The Crowdsourced Deathlist its 10th hit of 2017. Noakes was a familiar face on British TV throughout the 1960s and 1970s, as one of the longest serving presenters on Blue Peter. He was credited with bringing a more daring, boys own adventure style to the series, climbing to the top of Nelson's Column on one occasion, and free-fall parachuting with the RAF on another. He was also well known for his association with the dog Shep (part pet/part trained assassin), appearing in a number of children's shows together until the dog died in 1987. Noakes, aged 83, had been in poor health for a number of years, and appeared at Number 39 on his second appearance in The Crowdsourced Deathlist.

Lots of updates for the next leaderboard then, by the looks of it.
