As well as the three bonus points on offer for a unique pick, is there any chance of awarding two points for a duet and one point for a trio?

Not to detract from the dreadful delivery of our Tibetan/Zimbabwean/Egyptian/Irish OP, but Raoni is not a bad shout actually. I didn't realise he was so old (89) and he's a cert for proper obituaries. Just been nominated for the Nobel peace prize as well.

I did give serious thought to giving Kirubi a run out on this year's DDP, but was worried about him getting the right obits. Might have to revisit that next year if he makes it.

Interesting photo in that article - I never knew Adams was a pipe smoker. @Grim Up North, one for your theme team?

Sheila Hancock was a guest panellist on this week's Just a Minute, and sounded a bit confused I thought - incorrectly buzzing in, obviously repeating words and blathering on about having her kitchen adapted so everything was in reach. She certainly didn't sound as alert as Nicholas Parsons, who poked fun at himself by wondering "if I've yet reached the midway point of my broadcasting career".

@Kinnock, either calm down a bit, or carry on like this and have another few days off. Your choice, but please give it some thought before launching into your next stream of vitriol. Many thanks DDT

‘Akilisi Pohiva, Prime Minister of Tonga, aged 78.

I think pipe smoking bowls player David Bryant is still with us and knocking on a bit now.

My neighbour Wilfred Emmanuel-Jones, possibly the first black man to ever set foot in Holsworthy, might be a good candidate. However he's only 60 and in good health as far as I'm aware. Just thought I'd mention him, as I have a suspicion that Hosni was waiting for a few suggestions, before grumbling about the lack of diversity on this thread.

Tina Turner, better than all the rest...

He died in 1979.

I still play old rave music sometimes when I'm doing the housework, although I no longer take the drugs to go with it, so somehow I struggle to capture that euphoric rush of the old days when I'm emptying the dishwasher.

Arleta Baird, mother of the late GG Allin, has died aged 83. ...which is good to know, given some of her son's lifestyle choices.

Reminds me of the Eric Barone crash in 2008 - everything was going smoothly as he trundled down a mountain at 107mph, until his bike snapped in two. Remarkably, he only broke a few ribs.

Coincidentally, given his extreme right wing views, the current leader of the National Front - or what's left of it - is also called Tony Martin.
