It is difficult to see where the current political upheaval will leave us. Thatcher/Major only managed 18 years and Major only just scraped in in 1992. If Labour lose badly Jeremy Corbyn will step down but grassroots who got him there will want another candidate of the left. Emily Thornberry perhaps but the powers that be will do their best to keep her off the short list.

Going for the most inconvenient date for me. May 14th

I found one from The Irish Times and the Japan Times (in English). On my phone so cannot link.

Apparently my pick Masamitsu Yoshida died on 29th October 2016. You will need to remove him from my 2017/8 team as well.

There are only a couple of places where Green votes matter. Brighton, Bristol & Norwich. Labour's core vote holds up in most places but they need to get off the Brexit agenda, make it about public services and a just society. If the opposition parties mobilise then voters could decide to vote tactically. Labour lost a lot of votes to UKIP in 2015 but UKIP are a mess at the moment. Whether those votes will go back to Labour is debatable. There is no template for this election. All the people who didn't vote in 2015 outnumber the votes cast for a single party.

I don't think it is as remote as the media would have you believe. The polls do not tell the whole story and whereas last time there were shy tories now I think people don't want to admit they would support Corbyn. If Labour can fight on NHS, standard of living and anti hard brexit they may do some damage.

Congrats. I will also be celebrating my Silver Wedding anniversary this year.

That did come across from me as harsher than intended. Thanks Shaun

Recounted. The Time is out of joint.

Don't you think she looks tired! One for YW, DJL & Time

I would add Honor Blackman and Betty White as poor picks.

There is an easy way to avoid this. Only have erudite friends. You know where we are!

I thought he was OK in My Family but I have a feeling this might be a bit of a red herring. I don't like all the Moffett bashing. He wrote some of the best scripts in the RTD era and made The Doctor, The Doctor again. I stopped watching under Tennant. Not sure what to make of Chibnell though.

Have you got my team at all? You gave me the points for Joost when I asked but I also had Morano (joker) & Rickles.

I will start it in a new thread but we may have a final death to find a winner from our four joint leaders.

I bet they didn't serve many vegetarian options!

The game will continue until parliament is officially dissolved. New by-election bingo in July with more picks per person.

OK Guardian has Jane Freeman at 81 so put me down for Nexhimije Hoxha.

I am sticking with Jane until that 1935 date is confirmed from another source or I get the point. Nothing on BBC yet.

Do we believe the 35 date. That would have made her in her late thirties when the show started?

Chalked up the second highest number of episodes on the show behind Peter Sallis. If her birthdate is 35 does that cause a problem for 20/20? My windy city team went in this morning and I am already into the subs.

Does that warrent an outing for the Stevie Wonder/Chaka Khan joke?

Hope things are getting better Joey.

Jane Campbell is my second name.

Sir Creep you are heading for a one way trip to the naughty step. I love One Night In Bangkok and it frequently gets played on my ipod.
