arghton 6,865 Posted November 25 A bit niche, but Kari Wahlroos, one of the main perpetrators of the OneCoin crypto scam, Finnish businessman and alleged billionaire has died at 56. Started off as a local colostrum salesman inspired by fraudsters Trevor Lock and Petteri Jussila, made atleast an estimated four billion euros with OneCoin and bought hundreds of apartments in Dubai. This year there'd been some media investigation on his wealth and businesses, and for the first time he'd started claiming he was "not an OneCoin insider". He never regretted anything, kept being involved in other crypto scams and never kept a very low profile. Anyways, he died in a Malaysian hospital from a combination of streptococcus, diabetes, heart problems and stomach cancer after having an amputation earlier and spending two months in coma. Sometimes karma does catch up to you. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ulitzer95 12,843 Posted November 27 Sir Kit McMahon (wiki), Aussie-born British banker who was Deputy Governor of the Bank of England from 1980 to 1986, dead at 97. Obits: Times, Telegraph As his 2 successors are dead, the earliest living Deputy Governor is now Rupert Pennant-Rea (born 1948, wiki). Whilst I'm here, also worth noting that Lord Mervyn King (wiki), Governor from 2003 to 2013 (and arguably the most famous one), is 77 in March and still obese. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The home page has been replaced with a big sign that simply reads "GAME OVER". A pity. The best website on the web for putting an actor's face to a name. Aveleyman's homepage is back up but all working links now redirect to a copycat site called 'film dope'. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've covered both the original U.S. and longer running U.K. series. Tales of the Unexpected (1979–1988) Directors John Glenister (born 1932), John Gorrie (born 1932), John Davies (born 1934), Dezsö Magyar (born 1938), Simon Langton (born 1941), Chris Lovett (born 1945) and Giles Foster (born 1948). There are 26 who are deceased, including the great Norman Lloyd (1914–2021). I can't find birth details for John Bruce, Gareth Davies, Graham Evans, and Christopher Lukas but they could be living. John Glenister reportedly dead aged 92: Father of Robert and Philip Glenister. Z Cars director. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
