I saw the great Mr. Manning on a repeat of the 'Mrs Merton Show', a couple of days ago. He was in tremendous form, but he looked a little 'worse for wear'; that was back in 1998. So, six years on... this year maybe?? Mr. Reaper?...

Tony Randall dead. Too bad he wasn't an include.

According to today's Guardian, Magnus Magnusson has been in hospital for some emergency surgery - anyone know any more?

An encouraging documentary on Evel Knievel earlier on Channel 5. Evel is apparently on 48 pills a day, had a liver transplant, has a wife 33 years his junior and, even though in his mid-sixties, is talking of that one last jump 2005 would be the perfect year for the big jump IMO - go for it Evel

Scouting through the internet news pages, I keep coming up with storys about a 'pop diva' called Brenda Fassie. However, I can't seem to find any news about her outside of African (mainly South African) web sites. So, out of interest I am posting this topic just to see if anyone else has actually heard of her - perhaps I'm getting old and she is the best thing since the Spice Girls? Anyway, famous or not, she doesn't look like she is going to be singing any more! http://www.news24.com/News24/South_Africa/...1521329,00.html DWB

Another sportsman suffering from a brain tumour is Richard Burns, the 2001 World Rally Champion. http://www.richardburns.com/news.cfm?flag=2&id=349 He is going through some treatment at the moment, so worth keeping an eye on him to see how he fares. DWB

Just wondering if Norman Wisdom has been considered. I've been watching this one since the early '90s.

Estee Lauder, who over decades built a multi-million-dollar cosmetics empire with thousands of employees, has died at the age of 97. Her son Leonard Lauder told the newspaper Lauder died of cardiopulmonary arrest. She died Saturday at her home on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, The NY Times said.

The Mirror reports she is seriously ill in hospital suffering from incurable and advanced brain cancer. When she does venture out she is wheelchair bound and accompanied by a helper. Is she famous enough for the DL? DWB

according to the always fact-filled Evening Standard, Monaco's Prince Rainier's getting old and trying to decide which of his kids is least likely to f*%$ things up in the principality when he goes. He was recently in hospital for a recurrence of heart problems. That family's due to have something bad happen to 'em - it's been a good few years since anyone died or got cheated on by their bodyguard/husband nailing a stripper

Yes that loveable rogue may not make beynd the end of 2004 but please don't cry for me Argentina........ http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/3637933.stm (Was that cheesy enough?)

How about a mention for next year. She played the old one in The Golden Girls who made all the wise cracks. I heard that she had Parkinsons, Alzeimers and something else quite nasty.

I found an article about Ron. It is a bit long-winded but worth a read if you have 5 minutes. http://www.pioneerlocal.com/cgi-bin/ppo-st...-04-267656.html For those who don't have 5 minutes here are a few quotes about his life. This bloke must have the constitution of an ox - but it has to catch up with him eventually. We should keep a close eye on him! DWB

Remember that little annoying guy from the 60's ( and 70's) Charlie Drake? Has he ran out of breath yet or is he still going?
-
I have no idea why (and I don't think I want to know) but last night in the middle of my dream in popped Barbara Bel Geddes. A quick trawl for info shows she's 82, and reminded me that she took a year out from Miss Eliie in the '80's to have quadruple heart bypass surgery, and hasn't seemed to have done anything noteworthy since 1990. Just wondered of she was enjoying retirement, or resting on doc's orders?????? love and kisses little sister ( in need of sleep)

I'm surprised Osama bin Laden wasn't on this year's deathlist. While he's proven pretty resilient since getting more than he bargained for post-911, I'd say with a US election in November, there's a good chance the Americans will manage to blow up whatever mountain hole Osama is squirreled away in. And in the end, that's probably good news for him, what with all those virgins waiting for him in the afterlife . . .
-
I see from the Wiki, that she is a cousin of the actor Clive Dunn, no less. Perhaps a bit of family competitiveness might be triggered.

Like DWB I was also doing a bit of casual DeathList research and think Ive stumbled across an exciting new possibility. It appears that Al Lewis who played Grampa Munster in the 1960s TV series is still alive and coming up to his 94th brithday. I cannot find any news of his recent health or his death but I have found a site where you can book him for a personal appearance - Perhaps he should be the guest of honour at the DeathList Xmas party.

This list is far too northern-hemisphere centric. We've got plenty of old-timers just busting to pop their clogs south of the equator. Take Sir Joh Bjelke-Petersen for example. If he manages to last the year out, then he'd be a dead cert [sic] for next year's list. Any chance we could see a few more antipodean antiques grace the list next year?
-
Looks like Suharto might go this year. He has been declared unfit to stand trial. Perhaps he should of been included this year after all.

I'm from New Zealand - stick Sir Edmund Hillary back up for next year, let's just hope he holds out until then! Also, what about Nelson Mandela?
