    Deathlist On The Net

    Good because most of them are cunts. Oh, I don't know, most of them seem to be taking an interest. There's only a couple being po-faced about it. The Corrie Fan vehemently defending us is me, the rest seem a bit luke-warm about it. (the site that is) There's a fair few naturals in though, that woman who got Denise Robertson deserves a gold medal. For all the sniffiness they seemed to take to the debate quite naturally. Need to come up with some better names though. It does, however, help explain the Drop Forty. "Uh, yeah, the Queens bloke is quite old, innit he?" *adds to DDP team*

    Deathlist On The Net

    Sarcasm, I assume? And there was me thinking West of Scotland deadpan humour didn't need emoticons to translate it anymore. Duh!

    Room 101

    They seem to think this sentiment is some sort of joke. That does seem to have a bunch of replies from people saying they'd be it. That all your twitter accounts? Any missing episodes? The only 60s show I know has nothing missing is Blue Peter, as future Deathlist starlet Biddy Baxter was apparently very on the ball about the archives from the off. And scarier than Peter Cook!

    Deathlist On The Net

    That's not news. When Clive Dunn turned 90, a few folk mentioned he was a Deathlist favourite, which caused some controversy. Deadpooling is one of the oldest and controversial arts. A certain pre-eminent European academy's members bet money a number of years ago on which of the immortals would be the next to snuff it. I'd guess in comparison this site is fairly friendly in spirit! Also, Corrie_Fan2 is Deathray? Well, I never saw that one coming. Colour me shocked and all that jazz.

    Conspiracy Theories

    Mountbatten was sounded out about a coup, but I thought it was in the late 1960s. Or am I mixing up my alleged coups against Wilson? Probably. He - Wilson - was paranoid as fuck, but then, so would I if I kept finding out everyone was actually allegedly out to get me.

    Shaun`s Death By Numbers 2016I

    He was one of the most well regarded character actors of his generation. He'll get the Telegraph and Guardian obits before too long.

    Derby Dead Pool 2016

    Note to self: I'm likely in second place in the same ranking. Crowe (9) + Feek (10) + Ford (10) + Cruyff (8) + Travis joker (24) = 61 points Also, I think DDT got 66 points (Plowright 9 + Crowe 9 + Feek 20 + Davies 6 + Ford 10 + Travis 12). Kris Travis was 32 so only worth 10 points. Well, I say "only"...

    Derby Dead Pool 2016

    TMIB noted that Spade's 53 points in January was possibly a record, so 64 points surely has to be.

    Derby Dead Pool 2016

    Well done to Death Impends for breaching the 100 point ceiling, I know its been one of their aims for a while! As for me, it would really help if Eesti could re-evaluate their team in here and claim that Keith Farnham, Howard Marks and Joost van der Westhuizen have "15% or lower chances to die in 2016" - so far, their evaluations have worked a treat as a jinx to aide my team!

    British Character Actors

    On my Rotten deadpool. One of the original BBC Sherlock Holmes too, before Peter Cushing took over the role in the mid 60s.

    Ronnie Corbett

    A shame, but I believe he'd been unwell for a while. RIP.

    I hope you didn't try to cheer yourself up by watching or reading Plague Dogs.

    Doctor Doctor

    This forum has a bloody sweeps obsession. I think she'll be around in January by hook or by crook.

    Derby Dead Pool 2016

    It was up a few days before it disappeared. It was when I was trying to double check the Ford teamers (which I'd looked at earlier in the week) that I noticed it suddenly had gone away, and then spotted your post here when I woke up.

    Prince Philip Duke Of Edinburgh

    Came across more to me as typical younger generation thinking "what do I say to make my grandfather look eccentric and appealing, rather than an old racist?"

    She said in an early tweet The Poet writes her more coherent messages. Her other half, I'm assuming.

    Death Anniversary Thread

    I hadn't heard that particular aspect of it before. In congress and in costume was the rumour I heard "Oh my god, I've killed Doctor Who!" Apparently the fan in question was well known in those circles, so it should be a fairly easily verifiable story if true. There's lots of Dr Who behind the scenes rumours though.

    They showed Watership Down for Easter? That's wonderful!

    Death Anniversary Thread

    48 years ago. Either that or we've all gone back in time a decade, in which case, someone send Sir Creep down to Atlanta to warn Chris Benoit to get a brain scan.
  20. Thing is, Sanders was never meant to win the nomination. He's the fringe candidate, the Democrats Kasich or Carson or so, who is meant to go out reasonably early as the big hitters fight it out. There is no big hitters on the Dem side beyond Clinton, so given he still IS a fringe candidate turned into the only one, him actually win a whole bunch of states is a remarkable achievement. That, and it might help lay out the ground work for future, younger, centre left politicians in the US. Maybe.

    By-Election Bingo

    FAO Maryport The Voice of YMP might be on for a good one here, long term. Mike Gapes had a heart attack, and was only released from hospital last week, 2 months on. Shit, he's lording it over me already without this encouraging boost. This ain't a sprint, ain't a marathon but it's an ultra-marathon, right. Further on Mike Gapes. He survived a thoracic aneurysm rupture! He's a very lucky boy then. Says he's "bionic". Time will tell on that one.

    The last of the major script contributors to the original Twilight Zone.

    Rensenbrink with his ALS derivative is more a name for 2019 on, events not withstanding...
