Arnold Rüütel gives me (and maybe others) another 365 points.

 

 

That'll be a q/o, then: https://news.err.ee/1609564195/former-president-of-estonia-arnold-ruutel-passes-away

 

And, this'll be confirmation from the masterlist (now up) that a trio of talent spotters surge upwards by 365 points - Rüütel, Arnold  dr, gr, su

Oh aye, and...a new feature we'll briefly enjoy until victory is rapidly sealed. Looking at the tonnage of (381) names on the masterlist it might be useful to introduce a few of the - ahem - cult heroes, starting with...Jytte Abildstrøm

 

 

Danish dame of stage and screen, known to, well...Danes mainly from such unforgettable crowd pleasers as Svend, Knud og Valdemar (1970) and Askepot (1973) and known to her social services as someone already in their nineties. Wikipedia says her "active" years stretch from 1956 to "present" though it offers no evidence of any production since 2012. Maybe the clamour for selfies with her has blocked her route to auditions for the last twelve years, who knows?  Oh, and her son is an actor who appeared in Borgen.

So, second full day and nowt doing by way of points, then. For all our avid followers here's an alluring snapshot of Lord Monson (who actually has a proper job as a journalist) he's giving it that doe-eyed charm last October in a story suggesting he could have only four months to live. ONE Deathrace team has this hot talent.

I believe I should have Gene Hackman on my list as James Butts is already dead.

 

 

Doc Severinsen was top of the shop on your sub's bench, so he's in play for you. Only one of your 20 was dead when we kicked off as far as I can see

My bad, looking at the file I clearly did one sweep of your team, loading in the picks already on the spreadsheet then I missed a couple unique to you, all sorted now

I've still got all the original teams, so any mistakes like this - caused because I'm wall-to-wall with work atm - can be sorted

I don't want to have to do this to myself, but I'm also no cheat. I make my score 1093 points, 365 each from Walker and Rüütel, then 363 from Keleti.
