Yes I will be starting a new thread for 2016 .I am not doing too badly thank you.

Updated for Douglas North, Michael C Gross and Holly Woodlawn.Woodlawn`s death has proven really significant with the Unknown Man pushed to third place: Death Impends: 232 Shaun of the Dead :226 The Unknown man :213 Sir Creep:213 gcreptile:208 Bibliogryphon:158 Handrejka:124 Morbidkid :121 Maryportfuncity:120 msc:105 Grim up North :101 Captain Chorizo:73 Rotten Ali:78 CasketsUnderstandNoTitles 28 Jiroemon Kimura:19 Deathray :17 Updated for Janner ,Hill and Bockwinkel.Certainly looks interesting at the top now.Let me know if there are many mistakes or omissions etc.I will be checking the list again after christmas to check everything is in order .I will be using the masterlist to see if anyone has cheated ha:P.No but in all seriousness I am prone to making mistakes so it is chiefly for my benefit.I will post details of the 2016 pool in a new thread for my benefit as it would make it too hard to continue it over given the high volume of candidates and teams.

https://twitter.com/tommychong/status/678333358913425408 Tommy Chong announces he is still alive following a death hoax online.Looks pretty bad here though! He also said he had an operation in response to the hoax but didn`t say whether he was referring to the October one or a more recent one.

or Glen Campbell maybe... Jeanne Little and Peter Swan would be my likely suspects as well as Booth.

Lord Janner turned 87 yesterday and is said to be receiving 24 hour care for Alzheimer`s disease which he was diagnosed with six years ago. His condition is said to be rapidly worsening however some have said his lawyers are exaggerating the severity of his condition to avoid him standing trial over serious historical offences. When the trial goes ahead albeit in his absence the speculation of his health will no doubt be clarified further. Certainly a serious contender for next year I think. Had anyone heard of him before the child abuse allegations though?

Jimmy Hill dead at 87 :http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/35141837

I have encountered the same problem too!

http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2015/dec/17/shirley-williams-retire-lords-after-50-years-politics:Baroness Shirley Williams to retire from the house of Lords in the New year.She did an interview with the casual politics guy and looks good for 85 and appears very much on the ball but maybe she knows something we don`t?Not one for next years list maybe but certainly one to keep an eye on now she has retired.Other notable members of the house of lords that have stood down are : -Mary Warnock (91 and is an outspoken advocate of assisted suicide.Maybe she will lead by example?) -Patrick Jenkin -David Waddington -Patrick Mayhew -Cecil Parkinson (We would have to come up with a cracker for his slogan if he went ) -Peter Brooke -John Sewel -Michael Ashcroft (Renal Failure)

How about Ronald Reagan's longest serving Secretary of State George P Schultz? He is 95 now and certainly notable enough for passing the DL criteria.

Truly, the kind of spirit that the Deathlist cherishes. As for his idea of a sweepstake, I'm thinking June, based on his blood test results. He's still working...for now. Great to see people embracing the Deathlist spirit!Surprisingly I haven`t heard of him despite having connections to his part of the country.He was Liberal Chief Whip for seven years surely that just about scapes it in DL terms.A Lord former MP and Former Chief Whip would certainly obit.

I suppose she was like an Essex version of the Queen Mother and seeing as I live in Essex that isn`t saying much:P.Seemed like a nice old bird whenever I saw her in interviews.Always thought she looked older than 80.

Can't stand her. I was going to say "this feels too lighthearted a thread to ruin it with Mugabe" but then I see "one new post" show and Shaun just lists a whole bunch of the fuckers! I did ponder that but I don`t tend to wish people dead who are just annoying.I wish many people in the public eye would just fuck off to the other side of the world and disappear but I can only wish death upon some real scumbags like I have listed.

1)Ian Brady 2)Peter Sutcliffe 3)Robert Mugabe 4)Stuart Hall 5)Rolf Harris 6)Oscar Pistorius 7)Gary Glitter 8)Bernie Madoff 9)Pat Robertson 10)Max Clifford 11)Shirley Phelps-Rober 12)Michael Adebolajo 13)Michael Adabowale 14)Louis Farrakhan 15)Abu Hamza 16)Anjem Choudary 17)Harry Roberts 18)Oskar Groening 19)Fidel Castro 20)Jon Vennables 21)Robert Thompson 22)Stefan Sylvestre 23)Chris Denning 24)Chris Langham 25)John Hirst (murderer) 26)Steve Wright (murderer) 27)Levi Bellfield 28)Ian Huntley 29)Maxine Carr 30)Peter Tobin 31)Michael Salmon (peado Doctor) 32)Roy Whiting 33)Phil Spector 34)Lynne Stewart 35)OJ Simpson 36)Kim Jong Un 37)Patrick Magee 38)Gerry Adams 39)Martin McGuinness

How easy was it to for her to get into the character of Edna?Did she have to warm up to get into character or could she just switch into character instantly as some method actors do?

:Appeared at an Oxford Union talk a couple of weeks ago and looks quite frail.Her voice is much weaker and fainter and she certainly appears to be struggling to catch her breath at the beginning.She also appears to have lost quite a bit of weight.

94 Today

96 today!

I got Santorum then Pataki,Huckabee and worryingly then Trump.

99 Today!!!! one of the all time Death List greats now surely. 13 appearances:I salute you Sir.

No way would I vote for him and I am pretty right wing however that is in a British context.I have no idea who I would vote for but certainly not him or Sanders .He is insane and would probably cause a World War in his first term.He is like an American Nick Griffin.He might be a good candidate next year.Must be a hell of a target now!

Cheers for that not sure how I miscounted that.Sadly I am under a lot of stress at present so I may have made more mistakes.If anyone notices them please let me know.Rest assured though I will double check all figures this weekend when I am on holiday.Apologies !
