    Leicester City legend and charity fund raiser Alan Birchill has been rushed to hospital according to Twitter sourced. He was a summariser for Radio Leicester commentary until a few years ago.

    In light of other news today I would like to remind our younger and non-British members that Bill Rodgers is a British Politician and not a summary of the Clinton Presidency

    I keep thinking about how astonishing it is that Leslie Phillips is still alive

    Just out of curiosity I checked the birthdates of the five winning picks they are separated by 50 months Bill Rodgers - 28.10.28 Douglas Hurd - 8.3.30 John Morris - 5.11.31 Nigel Lawson - 11.3.32 Roy Hattersley - 28.12.32

    I think that she may come under pressure to resign her seat but may face a recall petition. Should be a fairly straightforward win for Labour depending on the candidate

    Here is the first list of potential winning picks: 1. Roy Hattersley (mc) 2. Douglas Hurd (mc) 3. Nigel Lawson (mc) 4. John Morris (mc) 5. Bill Rodgers (mc) All of these would be acceptable candidates for the main Deathlist. I have long advocated Douglas Hurd as a potential pick and there has been recent speculation about how ill Roy Hattersley looked in the last round of photos, John Morris is very old. With the demise of Shirley Williams Bill Rodgers is clearly going to be the next of the Gang of Four to go and despite his weight loss Nigel Lawson still does not look the picture of health. How long has this game got left and does @msc have some good topics for Game V?

    @CaptainChorizo gets off the mark @BuffaloPhil gets a fourth hit, his second in the Star Trek category but @msc moves into a winning position with a fourth hit in a fourth category. Needing only a cabinet minister to complete the game but so far this has been the slowest category and none of the games so far have ended with just one player in a winning position

    During the last week Woman's Hour celebrated its 75th Birthday and they interviewed one of the original producers Diana Gayford now 104. She may not get a national QO but would be a contender for Last Word

    Ideas and possibilities 2022

    My wife alerted me to a news story yesterday that led to this post. The TV presenter and wildlife activist Chris Packham's house has been attacked by someone trying to set fire to the gates. Previously his opponents have left dead animals outside his gates. I am concerned that this campaign of terror against him might get out of hand as he is not the type of person to back down. Whilst I do not think anyone would set out to kill him I didn't think tge Brexit referendum would lead to murder either. Whether you agree with him or not this level of intimidation should not be part of the political discourse in this country.

    Fair enough. I was just thinking that Ted was a staunch European and assumed that this had a similar demographic to others in the near London areas Labour came within 3,500 in 1997. But Johnson should not lose this unless things get very bad

    This is Edward Heath's old seat but like Chesham & Amersham it is probably a hot bed of old school tories and Heath was pro European On paper it should be a walk in the park for the Tories but it is a massive pitfall if they lose it. I reckon Labour will run a low key campaign and allow the Lib Dems a clear shot
