Absolutely.

Was worried one of my DDP picks died last minute when I saw this thread had been updated.

Has anyone found the hidden list of new threads that gives it away sometimes regarding debuts?

1)Derek Draper 2)Jimmy Carter 3)Joanne Woodward 4)James Carter Cathcart 5) Noam Chomsky 6)Stanley Baxter 7)Cleo Laine 8)Jonnie Irwin 9)William Russell 10)Esther Rantzen Subs Linda Nolan James Whale

I reckon Van Dyke will be just to annoy everyone.

Forgot to put him on my shadowlist. Damn

I will pick Tom Baker as joker. Apologies for forgetting to do that before posting.

Why would they honour Skinner?There is no way he would ever accept an honour and I'm sure he would regard it as an insult.

Looking over my 3 DDP teams 1928 births are the most represented of their decade .Only 1 year in the 30s matches the sane number of picks out of the 60 names.

Bullshit.My Grandfather died on the 30th December and died wanting to live up until the final breath because he wanted to live as long as he could but he wouldnt have given a shit about whether he died in one year or another but when your times up it's up.New year isn't the same as a landmark as a Big Birthday a wedding or a family visit.Your likelihood of dying in late December is very high although I think it is the second week of January with the highest incidence of mortality.

She was off for ages during covid too as she was caring for her sick mother as I recall.

Jimmy Carter as my joker please.
