The Four Horsemen

Chris Please stop taking drugs. Thank you T4H

Well, I did say to myself "God help us all" after reading that - will that do?

Remove Top seems to work quite well, but again keep those pesky other halves out of the way.........

Now there's a first - a drive by poster reprimanding a regular for their spelling!

Is this the same Pete McCarthy who used to present the little watched series on Channel 4 "Happens Now", which I think Andy Kershaw also used to present?

Are we going to open up the DL to non-humans then? I wonder if the Blue Peter animals are looking a bit peaky.......?

Has somebody been overdosing on Daily Mail editorials again? Nice keyboard by the way, RK - it looks like the ones we used to have at school back in the dark ages..........

Also possibly the easiest "Deathline" contender I would imagine......

It's Virgin on the ridiculous............

Not the Glasgow Evening Times again.........

I have a hunch that he was turning up to plug some article he'd written for a 2-bob local rag, rather than to keep us informed on a potential candidate. Call me cynical if you like.........

I do hope that the Evening Times' proof readers are awake if this is the standard of spelling from the journalists

It's true, and you can read more here Wasn't it prostate cancer that did for Bob Monkhouse?

OK, time for a quiet chat about what the Deathlist actually is, I feel.......nurse, the screens!

Thankfully it wasn't a Marathon session (one for the older readers )

Peter, Paul and Mary? Not famous enough? Madness! She doesn't look good in that photo, but she is expected to be in full remission so here's hoping that a folk legend doesn't make next years list! I'll get my Arran sweater out in tribute.........

He got a mention in despatches here, seems to be in good health still though.

I wonder how many people did die on Millennium Eve 5 years ago? Where's Mr Stats when you need him!

I thought it was David Dickinson of Bargain Hunt fame. I have 3 cats and like them all - didn't we have a discussion a while back about how long it would take for a buried cat to decompose?

The BBC obit states her birthday as 1910, so I think the IMDB has suffered from a typo or misinformation - I thought she was about 90 when she was in Rentaghost, mind you........

I can't find any reference to him having died, unlike his contemporary John Snagge who was plastered all over the obituary pages in 1996. There was also a Mr Frank Phillips who attended Thora Hirds memorial service, although he was listed as a member of the Paddington Rotary Club so I don't know if it's the same one. Maybe he is still going at 103..........

Apparently if "Rouge Trading" goes wrong it can leave you red faced........

Apparently the election campaign in the Ukraine explained his appearance as the result of a bad meal of sushi.......maybe they just meant there was something fishy going on?

I'm inclined to agree - people being famous for being ill is similar to people being famous for being old, and as we all know they are banned from the DL for that very reason.

Are you a rogue medical practitioner or is this made up?
