I count 47 votes. I didn't count and just went by the statement that 50 members had cast their votes. Oh yea weird didn't see that . Maybe it didn't register the other three votes im not sure unless my counting is off . Someone should do a recount .lol I know what happened 50 people have cast there votes and three people have deleted them probably . that's my best guess. I know what happened - I was trying to be a smart arse without getting my facts straight

I am intrigued by the way the percentages are calculated. Mubarek has 16/50 votes which by my reckoning should be 32% but the programme has put him at 34%. Does Deathlist maths work in a weird and fiendish way?

Difficult one!! LOTR If you have read the books then the films are OK to watch but a wasted opportunity. If you haven't read the books then I would recommend reading the books but you might enjoy the films more if you haven't read the books!! HARRY POTTER Just don't bother!

I seriously think that Deathlisters should snap these up as official mugs to drink out celebratory champagne from when either Zsa Zsa or Thatcher finally depart

Lucky I got this list in as Barry Unsworth is dead

Sainsbury's have a range of Father's Day gifts with Dad's Army theme blazoned with the words Don't Panic and Clive's picture. You can get a wallet, socks, tankard. I do hope he is getting some royalties for image rights which should pay for any medical care he may need in the near future. These could also become Deathlist memorabilia.

Following my success with Ray Bradbury. I used the same technique and voted for Mubarek but this time I seem to be in touch with the mood of the nation (or at least that part of it that frequents the Deathlist)

Another one I was convinced was dead. I had Robert Vaughan on my list but not Peter.

Watched the Diamond Jubilee Concert and whilst he did not look at Death's door he certainly looked worse than a lot of people who were older than him, Macca, Tom Jones, Shirley Bassey, Cliff Richard, Rolf Harris & The Queen!

Ken Dodd & Val Doonican both still active.

I haven't seen much discussion on this forum about Jackie Stallone, not that I want an indepth discussion but just news about her iminent demise. However since she is in tune with the stars and can predict the future with absolute certainty she can plan the whole event herself. I am presuming she will not outlive Sylvester.

Sir Andrew Huxley's facing a brave new world. I was convinced Doris Lessing was dead. I need her on my database. I had pencilled in James Watson and already had Nelson Mandela and Henry Kissinger. You could have kept this to yourself and played a devestating theme team in 2013 or did you just want to get them in before the inevitable happens. Excellent work that man.

Where he serves his sentence will be a significant factor when determining whether he is a viable candidate for future years. If he serves it in The Hague or even the UK I think that he will last a fair while but he might want to serve it close to his people in Africa (shoe in for 2013). How does this work, whose decision is it?

What you mean he will be putting on all the celebs he think will die next year? Well he is in the position to know. Anyone older than him I presume. If what you actually mean is that Bruce Forsyth should be added to the list I will disagree with you unless he retires. When he is no longer on telly will be the time to put him on the list.

Guy Hamiton who directed four James Bond films between 1964 & 1974 will be 90 in September. No information on health but 90 is 90.

For your consideration veteren theatre actor Richard Pasco, CBE (b.1926) who is married to Barbara Leigh-Hunt (b.1935). Barbara is best known for her performance as Lady Catherine de Burgh in the BBC adaptation of Pride & Prejudice which was made in 1995 and I was surprised to find she was still alive.

Nothing to add since 2008? Considering how ill he is meant to have been he must be worth a revisit. Apparently (according to Wiki) he has contributed to an official biography which may clear up some of the circumstances surrounding his resignation but will not allow it to be published until after his death. The Author has tried to get it published but each time it has been blocked by a court injunction. The publishers must be just waiting for that particular payday and will probably break records from announcement of death to hitting the bookshelves.

At the moment I think that considering how quickly he came through the heart scare at Christmas and that he looked pretty hale at the wedding, (Joking with Camilla about the evil look Liz gave her!) and considering the excellent medical attention he would receive I think that we will see a longer slow decline and perhaps when he stops appearing in public. However he will probably prove me wrong and have a massive heart attack during Jessie J's performance at the Jubilee concert.

Good news. Nancy has agreed to an all in wrestling match with Zsa Zsa Gabor - to the death!

DeathList royalty cheque (in Drachmas) in the post to Bibliogryphon for that catchy reworking being used on the main page - Cheers I am honoured and humbled at the same time

Peter Ackroyd (b. 1949) was on Desert Island Discs on Sunday (repeated on Friday at 9am) in which he revealed that after completing his book London:A Biography he suffered a massive heart attack and his mother was told he had a 50:50 chance of survival. He also revealed that he smuggled a bottle of wine into his hospital room whilst recovering and didn't beleive in giving things up. This is now several years behind him but he should be on the radar.

So sad and so sudden. Tuned my ipod to Donna Summer on Thursday night and enjoyed.

Ray Bradbury for me! No reason just feels right.

I hope no-one will ask Barry "How deep is your Bruv?"
