Bit of a blind spot

Just doscovered that Stevie Wonder isn't even on my long list..... .....he is now.

Yeah his voice was rough today and he actually said something like Tommy Cooper had the right idea

Currently Johnnie Walker's guest on Sounds of the Seventies on Radio 2

Jared O'Mara will score points but only if he gets to resign before a General Election is called. Tick tock!

Front Page of National Enquirer this week. Stevie Wonder has seven months to live which conveniently takes us just in to 2020.

Damn. I have Roy Lynk on my DDP team as a unique.

Was in Jonathan Miller's BBC Shakespeare version of The Winters Tale with Robert Stephens and Anne Calder Marshall

The Telegraph finally came through with an Obit for Sir Rex Richards (behind the paywall) but its all a bit pointless. Done here because he died before Stevas and he was my R pick in the ABC dead pools but he went in the closed season. Oh well.

Even if this did come to a by-election there are no points in this competition. At this rate the Government might fall with just one scoring hit.

All the old dudes

Buggery Bollocks OK I am replacing Rex Richards with Dilip Kumar

His former college has put out a statement on Twitter.

Wiki has Rex Richards dead but no confirmation yet. He should obit.

The sixth hit means that the next date of significance is 17th August. If we get a hit before then we will move ahead of 2018 & 2016.

It made the Radio 4 Nine O'clock news bulletin. Not someone I was familiar with. I still keep thinking of La de da Gunner Graham

Congrats Squonk 1920 Fanny Waterman /Arnold Yarrow 1921 Elizabeth Kelly/ Ray Lawler 1922 Betty White/Rex Richards 1923 Gloria Whelan/ Freeman Dyson 1924 Zizi Jeanmaire/Christopher Tolkien 1925 Ysanne Churchman/Pete Murray 1926 Gudrun Ure/Leonard Fenton 1927 Mary Higgins-Clark/Frank Windsor 1928 Estelle Harris/Tommy Docherty 1929 Patricia Routledge/Eric Carle

Tony Britton

No he was not Scavenger food. That would be a massive gamble when you only get five picks.

Over the weekend I completed my watch of Gentleman Jack. Lots of potential DL candidates in action. DL favs Timothy West and Stephanie Cole as well as Gemma Jones and even Peter Davison setting out their stalls (the former playing bed ridden aunt) but on of the most interesting inclusions was Sylvia Sims who only appeared in one scene but was unrecognizable from her Ghost Light/Margaret Thatcher days. She is now 85.

Last time Graeme was on Would I Lie To You. He sounded weak and subdued.

Freddie Jones my first hit here.

Valentina Cortese and Freddie Jones not hits here

Bibliogryphon 8 vs DL 5
