12 from Victorian era and 20th century.It appears her T-Shirt was a jinx!

Interesting token trivia type pick here.The most interesting thing he did apart from help create Las Vegas is marrying a woman 48 years his junior and having the sense to sign a pre-nup!That`s what I call a good business investment.

Motion seconded -not until next year though when I actually have picked him.

I am glad to see Herman back on the list as he is a good pick.I think personally though that number 4 is a bit too high for him as he has no obvious health issues like others lower on the list.

Yep just reduced it.

This year has got off to a flying start crikey!

I think that having a bias towards authority and acting is necessary as there is more media information available on these people when ill. I personally think the list this year is really strong and that we will get many hits. Quotas for professions isn`t desirable in my view is the aim is to get the most notable deaths in any given year so the only two criteria we should use if a person is famous enough is their age and/or health.

Am I the only one who hadn`t heard of him.He is an interesting pick and certainly looks frail in recent pictures.

Wrong thread Dr.

A good edition to the Deathlist old frail and highly notable.Make sure to watch some of Liz Smith`s work:She is a very funny actress!

Ok people that I think should be on Death List 2016: 1)Sir Nicholas Winton 2)Clare Hollingworth 3)Douglas Slocombe 4)Norman Lloyd 5)David Rockefeller 6)Charles H Townes 7)June Foray 8)Sheila Mercier 9)Alan Young 10)Jimmy Hill 11)Colin Dexter 12)Antony Booth 13)Mary Tyler Moore 15)Liz Dawn 16)Stephen Hawking 17)Muhammad Ali 18)Freddie Starr 19)Caroline Aherne 20)Paul Gascoigne

-I don`t think it is as good as this!

um Martin`s type of cancer leaves him a 5% chance of living until September.I think it is safe to say he will not get better.

Was the abnormality on his brain proved to be cancerous?

I am impressed with the list and think it has great potential.Everyone the list is either ancient or in horrible shape.I reckon we will get twenty: 1)Zsa Zsa Gabor 2)Sam Simon 3)Joao Havelange 4)Martin Crowe 5)Billy Graham 6)Vera Lynn 7)Al Molinaro 8)George Cole 9)Bhumibol Adulyadej 10)Chris Woodhead 11)Liz Smith 12)Peter Sallis 13)Bill Maynard 14)Leonard Nimoy 15)Patrick Macnee 16)Denis Norden 17)Doris Day 18)Nancy Reagan 19)Maureen O`Hara 20)Leslie Philips. The only big misses I think we will have are Mary Tyler Moore, Antony Booth ,Sir Nicholas Winton and Muhammad Ali.

Thank you very much for all the kind posts-Much appreciated.Thats my Great Uncle my Nan and my Grandad all gone this year.I am certainly hoping that 2015 will be a better one.

I think Sam should definitely be Number 1 on DL 2015!

Cheers for the feeback Tom.Yes that is anissue with the Death list as someone's level of fame does depend upon where you are from. Antony Booth is a famous British actor who is best known as playing Mike Rawlins "The scouse git" in the 196`s/70`s sitcom Till Death us do part.He was also president of the actors Union Equity and has the distinction I believe of starring in 4 separate soap operas.He is the son-in law of former prime minister Tony Blair and distantly related to John Wilkes Booth.He has Alzheimer's and has suffered a stroke and looks really ill in recent photos. http://www.mirror.co.uk/lifestyle/health/fiona-phillips-meets-tony-booth-3130078 Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2784394/SEBASTIAN-SHAKESPEARE-Cherie-Blair-s-Alzheimer-s-stricken-father-Tony-Booth-end-feud-Halibut-convert-sister.html#ixzz3NTno55L4 Follow us: @MailOnline on Twitter | DailyMail on Facebook ‘Tony has been really quite ill recently and Lauren contacted him and Stephanie to ask if she could visit,’ says a family friend I have substituted Luise Rainer with Stephen Hawking.
