vvmax 7 Posted June 5, 2021 1 hour ago, GEMINEYE said: Those reports are from 2018 (The Sun) and 2014 (Worcester News), and the Bucks Free Press article is Colin Baker writing about his terminally ill colleague Brian Rix (who has since died). This does not equate to there being "quite a lot of reports of him being ill" and he's definitely not terminally ill. Ah ok. He is still badly overweight, is 77, and has had at least 2 illnesses in the last few years.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Richard O’Sullivan, Robin of ‘Man About The House', has lived in a care home since 2003 after a stroke, news reports of him being frail.

SC Looks to me like whatever is going on with his hand is caused by either some blood or heart disease, leukemia, or nursing home abuse (its the USA most assisted living facilities are all about the cash and dont give a shit about their residents) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arghton 6,692 Posted June 12, 2021 A "he's still alive???" name for me, Sen Sōshitsu XV Born 1923 and 98 years old, he was the head of the Urasenke school of Japanese Tea from 1964 to 2002 and remains if not the most known, one of the most known of the alive tea masters. He was a kamikaze pilot but wasn't allowed to participate to keep the old dynasty from dying out. During his tenure as the head of the Urasenke school, he established multiple branches of the Urasenke school overseas. Probably not famous enough for the DL but certainly more famous than Bill Gates's dad and likely to recieve a lot of media attention when he dies. 2019: 2020: Also has a connection to the Japanese royal family: his son Sen Sōshitsu XVI (b. 1956) married Masako Sen (b. 1951), a daughter of Prince Takahito (1915-2016) and Princess Yuriko (b. 1923). However, he could be centenarian material like Prime Minister Murayama. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps 1,423 Posted June 20, 2021 Actress and author Judy Balaban (wiki) appeared for a microsecond during Piers Morgan's Life Stories with Joan Collins tonight and wasn't looking too great. Presumably on oxygen? Will most likely obit due to her friendship with Grace Kelly and the apparent fame of her family members. EDIT: apologies for the shite pic, I've discovered ITV Hub is anti-screenshot. She appears at 11:58 if anyone gives a fuck. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,639 Posted June 21, 2021 Lee Scratch Perry has imbibed more weed than any sane person would consider prudent and has also - apparently - had a few sips of petrol over the years. Currenly 85, obitable for sure and looking at tour dates well into next year. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
