livingbygrace 320 Posted January 1 8 hours ago, The Daredevil said: 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crash Davis 12 Posted January 1 Eastwood is old but he's still pretty active and took care of himself. He could reach upper 90's IMO. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

etib80 82 Posted January 2 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Windsor 2,233 Posted January 2 23 hours ago, Arsewipe said: Draper, because he's nowhere near famous enough. 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… 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Imelda 621 Posted January 3 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arsewipe 202 Posted January 3 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. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Perhaps 1,423 Posted January 3 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. 4 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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….

Toast 16,131 Posted January 3 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. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
