Book

Shaun, please do another update for my Honecker-hit. Thanks you.

So sorry that no one seems to care about this lovely little game. Ok, no one enters except Shaun, Willz and me

Margot Honecker for my team, please. http://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/may/06/margot-honecker-widow-of-former-east-german-leader-dies

I believe it's Book and his/her Deutschland Vesvbawieduwwuqiwsuhad Dich/Ich/Zich/Zisch/Viesch theme team. You nearly got it, Rad! I didn't notice that Margot Honecker was a unique hit! Good for my team (because Ruth Leuwerik didn't get any reliable obits).

Happy 90th Birthday, Cloris Leachman! She's looking much better than Mary who is more than 10 years younger.

Wolfgang "Wölli" Rohde, ex-drummer of German punk-band Die Toten Hosen, dies at 66: http://www.focus.de/kultur/musik/trauer-um-wolfgang-woelli-rohde-ex-schlagzeuger-der-toten-hosen-gestorben_id_5467802.html

The day before his birthday, so January 16, 2017.

Sorry to hear that Doris Roberts has died. But she is in my team... so... some nice points... http://www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/doris-roberts-dead-90-everybody-7785106

Link isn't working afaik. No news reports of her death? Unfortunately not. http://www.ok-trauer.de/file_tmp/image_tmp/8/ea9739f7-9385-4105-9601-90b85efc974a.jpg She is now dead for about 10 days... Hmm, I didn't know her. Did any other german member know her? I never heard of her.

What about Roxettes Marie Frederiksson? Today Roxette announced that they cancel their world tour and stop touring forever. Marie Frederiksson had a brain tumor in 2002 and won the fight against cancer a few years later. But now the doctors told her to stop touring due to concerns about her health... We should have a Look on her... http://www.thelocal.se/20160418/swedish-roxette-cancel-europe-summer-tour

10 absolutely overrated persons (imo): - Russell Crowe - Jennifer Aniston - Mariah Carey - Donald Trump - Kanye West - Kim Kardashian - Taylor Swift - Renee Zellweger - Jennifer Lawrence - Justin Bieber

Just did a Google image search. She looks like the woman from Roxette! So you have another example for the "Look Likely"-topic

Some point this year. Poor answer for a "host". You did read the tag-line when you entered, right? I did. Howsoever, everyone loves scoreboards. Thank you, Dead Cow! Well done!

German soap actress Hendrikje Fitz died of cancer at 54. http://www.spiegel.de/kultur/tv/hendrikje-fitz-in-aller-freundschaft-star-ist-tot-a-1086096.html

My 3rd hit and my joker: German actress Hendrikje Fitz dies age 54: http://www.spiegel.de/kultur/tv/hendrikje-fitz-in-aller-freundschaft-star-ist-tot-a-1086096.html When will there be an actual scoreboard, Deathray?

Leachman will turn 90 on April 30. Where does she look bad?? She's looking much better than Mary Tyler Moore, who is more than 10 years younger.

Happy 92nd or 94th Birthday, Doris Day!

Hans-Dietrich Genscher, former German Foreign Minister, dies at 89. Another former Foreign Minister, Guido Westerwelle, died just 2 weeks ago. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/ap/article-3518862/Former-German-foreign-minister-Genscher-dies-89.html

A bit of a shock, though he collapsed of exhaustion late last year. I was unsure whether this death belongs in the jazz thread or in here. In Europe he is known as an ESC contestant, not as a Jazz oder Swing singer. That's why I posted the news about his death in the ESC-thread. Und ja, das ist schon ein kleiner Schock irgendwie...
