Hmm, young Padawans, James Earl Jones has died and if you rip off his mask, he's not even David Prowse or Hayden Christensen!

 

In the wars of star players (see what I did there?) a surprising omission from many teams. 

 

Wormfarmer picks up 9 points for having him as a sub, and MariNisia picks up 4 points in similar fashion.

 

So not much happening, but the Leaderboard arrives on this page at last and has been updated.

Peru. Land of...erm...South America. And a football team that did rather well against Scotland at the 1978 World Cup.

 

Former President Alberto Fujimori has died. Asked where he kept the Andes, he replied "up my sleevies". Of course, your dear manager's only interest in Peru is in the fictional bear Paddington, who like Fujimori staged a coup, but only at the Brown's household, rather than a whole country. And Paddington's human rights abuses are of course legend, even drinking tea directly from the teapot in front of the late Queen, no less! Fujimori's interest in marmalade sandwiches is, to date, unknown.

 

Anyway, I digress. Before I start getting hard stares, guess I'd better attend to the round up. Fujimori was a hit for Captain Hemlock, theoldlady, TQR, Joe Moneypenny and Grimgrass.

 

Bonus: Grimgrass hits a pair of Jacks - 10 Additional points.

 

Fujimori was also a sub for diego, who draws 3 Spades for 3 added points.

 

Grimgrass becomes the second player to have five proper hits and is now only a single point behind early leader ladyfiona.

Kenneth Cope has departed, deceased at last, taking with him Vic Spanner, Jed Stone, Marty Hopkirk and a bunch of other characters which we shall never see again. Of course, you'll have the odd Dr Who nut who remembers him as Packard in the story Warriors' Gate, a personal favourite.

 

Anyhow, as the turn of a card or two can testify, TQR gets another hit, releasing them up the leaderboard, playing an Ace as well gaining them a 5 point bonus.

Trawling through the picks, I see Norman Spencer has died and received the necessary QO.

 

A Hobson's Choice for diego as the David Lean collaborator reaches his Vanishing Point and diego Bridges The River Kwai for a jump to fourth place.

After Corrie star Kenneth Cope, we now discover that Geoffrey Hinsliff who played Don Brennan in the soap has died.

 

Gooseberry Crumble smashes a hit with him, blowing up the leaderboard. Their Nightmare of Eden has ended with their first proper hit.

In a career spanning everything from Thunderbirds to Peppa Pig with a splash of Dalek, David Graham has moved on to the great voice over in the sky.

 

The puppetmasters of this round were Bibliogryphon and theoldlady who both tootle up the board.

 

Bonus: Bibliogryphon hits a pair of 3s, gaining an additional 10 Points.

 

Buffalo Phil had Graham as a sub and draws 10 Hearts for 10 added points.

Have a feeling we might be waiting for the Rupert Keegan obit until the BBC year-end round up.

We await a Rupert Keegan sized obit.

 

Meantime, Dame Maggie Smith, veteran of the National Theatre, Professor Minerva McGonagall in Harry Potter, Miss Jean Brodie, double academy award winner, yada yada yada has moved on to an acting job in the sky.

 

When you're alone and poker's making you lonely you can always go Downton! So livingbygrace gets a unique hit and everyone has now played a card.

Is that September drawing to a close? Yes, it is! We have now reached the halfway point of the game already. With everyone having a proper hit (and a few having no obiters) the game could not be more exciting! (I may however be over emphasising the joy and heartache the players are enjoying!).

 

Anyway, we join the Card Roulette Table and this is the draw, updated Leaderboard to follow:

Well, what can be said about the late, great Dikembe Mutumbo? The answer is not much - basketball player from the Congo who did rather well in the USA where he died from a brain tumour.

 

I guess that's it. Also a unique pick for gcreptile who joins those on 5 cards played so far.

Lily's Promise kept!

 

Holocaust survivor and author Lily Ebert has departed and with her go our good wishes as some players grab some points.

Yorkshire Banker had Ebert as a sub and draws A Diamonds - 14 Points added.

Another dead Kennedy!

 

Yes, having lost her brother-in-law and also her husband to the bullets of assassins as well as several family members in some more, some less intriguing circumstances, Ethel Kennedy finally departed more with a whimper than a bang, dying after a stroke at the grand old age of 96.

 

Those who had hits with her were YoungWillz (me!), Toast, msc and Gooseberry Crumble, 3 of whom scored with a King and one with a Jack as Camelot crumbles to the ground. Sadly, despite the improved positions for these players, no bonuses.

 

The Old Crem picked our Ethel as a sub and draws 5 Diamonds for 5 added points.

Tootsie Rolls all round for the tables!

 

Teri Garr has succumbed. From The Monkees' film Head to being Phoebe's mother in Friends and many comedic roles in between, she has left us just at the end of October in a very quiet month for the Tournament.

 

An unique pick for Captain Hemlock, this hit drags them up to second place. No bonuses.

Dub Jones kicked into touch!

 

Had to wait a couple of days for the QO https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/reuters/article-14037103/Former-Browns-star-Dub-Jones-dies-99.html so low points for rushing here! The NFL star for the Cleveland Browns in the 1940s was 99 - well, not everyone makes it to 100. (Jimmy Carter has made that milestone and outlives another aged pick here).

 

Anyway, a hit for both diego and Wormfarmer.

 

Bonus: diego gets a pair of 8s for 10 additional points.

 

Leaderboard updated.
