Phantom

If he's gravely ill, I doubt he'll last until the weekend

Didn't someone "predict" Mugabe wouldn't see out 2016?

75 is elderlyYou're elderly.I"m middle-agedThis is Sir Creep giving a pile of fucks about the OED definition of middle-aged. Prolly says 'pert near elderly'. Creep, you have done nothing but bitch and whine ever since you joined this site. 45 is middle-aged. Perhaps to someone of your emotional age, I could be viewed as "elderly". Since you obviously know everything, perhaps you should contact OED with your alternate definition. I'm sure you'll find a very similar definition in Webster's dictionary since the Yanks copy everything the English do.

75 is elderly

Google have corrected their entry to indicate that he's still alive. Previously they had him listed as died December 31st.

These three I agree with for 2018 long list. The others I either don't see as having much potential yet or admittedly don't know enough about and need to study.SC There are 4 on that list

You don't agree with a lot of things on here

You're confusing "not knowing" with "not caring"

Are you seriously claiming Facebook Live is the same as an actual live television show? Do you see a 'claim' young Sir Phantom? Seemed like a reasonable place to post it. Anyway I know you'll get treatment for your OCD, maybe 2017 is the year. SC So why post a story about someone dying while using Facebook Live on a thread about deaths on live TV? Surely even with your pedantic attitude, you'll know that the two do not connect.

It's just another US rip-off of a genuinely great British comedy, in this case Steptoe & Son. Yeah, like Archie Bunker was a piss poor Alf Garnett.Us Brits wouldn't know about that though, we are so insular!!! Certainly wasn't worse than the U.S. version of The Young Ones.

Clarissa Eden turns 97 in June. Both her and Mary Wilson are worthy of inclusion. Also I like Mary's vocal style when she was in The Supremes.

wait this post has 5 likes as in five people read this and found this funny wtf. 6

This is the 2nd time i have seen Honor Blackman making am appearance on a list. Other than advanced age, does she have any health issues? I tried searching, but to no avail.

As one of the admins mentioned earlier, the script showing the ages is a bit more simple than what you see on Wikipedia. It just takes the current year (2017) and subtracts the year when he was born (1916) arriving at the figures you see on the front page. It's guaranteed to be accurate at the end of the year (31st of December, 2017); but it doesn't keep track of the exact birthdates (day-month). There are only fifty of them - it can't be that much of a slog to enter the ages manually, shirley? My understanding is that the age is that of what they will turn in the year they are selected. E.g. Kirk Douglas will turn 101 in 2017

This man was also 'friends' with Stephen Gately, right?Im not quite sure about this one, he doesn't seem to be famous in his own right and have any sort of celebrity status but, somehow, seems to have been able to ingratiate himself as somesort of 'arse for hire' in the Gay celeb community. I suppose there will be that book to write....... Lots of things don't add up with this. Not that I would say it's suspicious, but if as his boyfriend stated that they were inseparable, but then he finds himself dead on Christmas day. This to me points to a possible suicide (although no note left) or an accidental O.D.

It's been years since I was in Goring. Socks with sandals even back then would have been a severe fashion faux pas.

No idea, never heard him sing.

It's not just his cancer that's an issue. His kidneys have been failing for years. Not only that he is being force-fed since he decided to go on a hunger strike. He doesn't get out much either. It's been rumoured that he's a tad unsociable. Hard to find those that enjoy long walks on the moors.The grumpy live forever though. At least I hope so.SC I suppose that's how you credit your longevity

I expect her to drop dead this year as I dropped her from my list

He's definitely turning out to be a bit of a twat, isn't he? So he makes the claims about OD/suicide, draws criticism from everyone, makes claims that Twitter account was hacked?

He's marked as "DE.." not "DEAD"
