I get your point and I wouldn’t have put him on but we We have had other people just as evil as him before so I am not too shocked they have put him on.

No bad picks IMO (pretty sure they'll all be dead by 2030). However, if I had to choose the worst pick of 2024, it would probably be Buzz Aldrin. He just got married again a year ago, has looked quite youthful for an nonagenarian in recent years, and remains very active on Twitter. 

 

A feeling it will be a tight race out of Wagner, Eastwood and Aldrin for the Last Survivor of the 2024 DL, and that they will all go around 2028. Buzz might squeak into 2029.

He could make it to 2029, anything is possible..But he could have a heart grabber tomarrow and die in an instant. One never knows especially when you reach 90s

Derek Draper. Who is he anyway 

Was a big advisor to Blair. Only stayed on the radar because he married a TV presenter….would have vanished into obscurity otherwise

Eastwood is old but he's still pretty active and took care of himself. He could reach upper 90's IMO.

I hope all Eastwood, Hackman and Duvall remain a DL fixture for the next five years.

Draper, because he's nowhere near famous enough.

Julie Walters of course : not very old, not retiring (Paddington 3 ...). OK she is ill but imo she could stay with us at least 3/4 more years easily

The Queen did some work with Paddington during her Platinum Jubilee and was dead in 3 months.

He is a strange one as he technically famous for being ill. 
 

I took the risk and put him on my DDP because he had that previous career yes, but I think the fact that COVID has done this to him - and his wife had projected it into the spotlight - makes it an exception. 
 

He is not an obscure ‘famous for being ill’.

 

But I take your point…

His death will be likely be frontpage on BBC News, and I'd say he has a fair shot at a breaking news notification as well.

He's hardly the first person who's name I only know because they appeared on this site.

 Josef Fritzl

 

For some reason he seems an unsavory untrustworthy chap,I think just might be exaggerating his health ailments.

Aside from the handful that are basically recurring on the list for as long as it takes (DvD, Mel Brooks, Prunella Scales, Linda Nolan) regardless of whether it's actually likely they'll go, it looks a pretty solid line-up.

 

Also Draper will easily QO, so a smart pick.

It's not a question of Draper obitting, it's the fact he's only going to do so because of being the husband of someone famous who also happened to get a bad case of covid.

 

He should be in the fringes of fame thread, no more than that.

Derek Draper qualifying for the DL is obviously a subject of debate but I think it’s painfully ignorant of people to claim he’s simply a fringe pick. 

 

Perhaps Google his name and educate yourself. He isn’t just a TV milf’s husband.

That’s precisely why I have always sais qo are debatable and why I campaigned for a more inclusive way of deadpooling (in the DDP for example). The guy has two wiki page in addition to the english one. Not saying it should be taken in consideration as wiki is, as we all know, debatable in itself, but still….

It's quite understandable that younger people, and those from outside the UK, would write off Draper as FFBI and/or celebrity spouse.

Trust us, he enjoyed (if that's the right word) quite some notoriety before his marriage.
