From the NotW hacking trial I would like to summon two exhibits for consideration for 2015 Exhibit A Stuart Kuttner (b. 1939) who was reported to have had a number of strokes since retiring from the paper Exhibit B Sara Payne (b. 1969) who was called as a character witness for Mr Kuttner but entered court using a walking stick.

June Brown, surely? June Brown was born in 1927 but is the oldest current member of the cast. I was trying to think of those that were in it at any point.

Deaf actress Phyllis Frelich who won a Tony award for the stage show of Chidren of a Lesser God dies at 70

Another pick looking well and active during LA hand printing. He can still get down on his knees.

This is an interesting article which suggests that the minimum weight restriction for drivers is too low and may be putting the driver's health at risk

He is still lucid enough to comment (and be reported) on Russia/Ukraine crisis

To be fair my Dad was born in 1929 and his eyesight is so bad I would not trust him with a golf club even if he had ever been able to play golf.

Will you also be registering for the DL at the same time?
