I think she was in my shadow list last year and would have been again next year, typically she was not this year. Sorry for spoiling any unique pick points for her. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Martyn Smith 9 Posted January 1, 2022 Can I just ask. DL 2021 is being declared as complete. So is each year defined by UTC, i.e. 2022 is deemed to have started at the midnight just gone here in the UK? It is however still 2021 for a few hours in the US. What if, say, Bob Newhart pops before midnight where he is? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What if, say, Bob Newhart pops before midnight where he is? Probably wouldn't affect the 2022 list, considering he isn't on it. 2021's total would then be 13- and Betty White's obit would need to be tweaked slightly (they said it was the final hit of the year).

Well indeed. So it is dependant on where that person is at the time. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ulitzer95 12,594 Posted January 5, 2022 Is this going to be your new "DL niche" Crem, after retiring your others acts i.e. "the Queen has terminal cancer" and "Oh I wonder if this person will get a QO obit?". I can see you're excited about your newly purchased Times subscription, but you're not the only one who can access their site on here! The nightclub owner is barely notable. Jimmy Cayne belongs in the businesspeople thread, and was already covered in there by Thatcher on 28 December. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jimmy Cayne belongs in the businesspeople thread, and was already covered in there by Thatcher on 28 December. I’ve had a subscprtion for years I just decided to do it for 2022. I did search for Jimmy Cayne (as I did for everyone) but it didn’t show up as a phrase search as Thatcher used his real name James Cayne and of course there are so many Jimmy (mostly Carter) mentions that even a week ago is pages down.
