    Last Word

    Last Word may be last chance for David Fisher to get an obit Cyrill Regis is a shoe in, Probably Bella Emberg and Dan Gurney and probably someone who did something 'worthy' that we have never heard of.

    Deathrace 2018

    Congrats msc but once again had no time to get into this competition this year. I liked the time it dragged on into summer. I managed to get some hits that year.

    George Alagiah

    I listen to radio 4 more than I watch BBC news. Hewlett was a respected journalist and very good at his job. His cancer diaries were extremely moving. I agree he was not a household name but he was a significant figure in the UK media.

    The Dead of 2018

    I have played him in some pools and he was on my Secret Army list. I once saw him forget his lines at the RSC.

    Deadpool Detective Work

    Someone has played a wildcard in my work poll of Roger Mugford who is an dog behaviour expert who regularly appears on Good Morning Britain. I am fairly certain he would obit but he does not have a wiki page and I cannot find a date of birth for him. I have checked his publisher website but their copy is almost identical to his website. Any advice?

    2018 Names for 2018

    I think Guardian or Independent most likely sources of an obit for David Fisher. The BBC might come up with one on a slow news day. Jane Baker!

    Might be tough. Jane Baker never got one.

    British Science Fiction Series

    His adaptations of his own scripts were a joy. In Creature From The Pit he manages a joyous romp not constrained by the budget of Seventies TV. My theme team off the mark.

    The offer is open that if he is struggling with time then I will run based on his category choices but I will put a team in.

    Presenters

    Joan Bakewell was speaking in the House of Lords yesterday about equal pay at the BBC. Sounded a bit shaky to me.

    Give it a shake and allow it to crystallize you could get meth.

    Presenters

    BBC radio 2 are to end The Organist Entertains leaving Nigel Ogden who has presented since 1980 out of a job. Is this a Desmond Carrington/Brian Mathew situation?
