Who Should Be On The Deathlist 2025?

[Joey Russ 7,263]

Well this year has been a disaster huh?

You know the drill, nominate your favorite Pokemon from Nebraska that the committee will promptly ignore. 
 

I think Rex Williams would be a good boomerang pick, was picked back in 1990, and he’s getting up there in age. Last time we had a big boomerang pick it was successful with George Cole, I’m just saying

[Death Impends 8,043]

All I really care is that Buzz Aldrin stays and Frankie Valli joins.

Bill Cosby is a name to watch in 2025

Should be left off until 2026. We've had too many stage IV cancer names debut too early in recent years. We already have Linda Nolan and James Whale. KEEP THEM!!

Charizard. Wait, no, wrong thread.

 

 

They need to bring back Davey Attenborough.

 

Sophie Kinsella, David Irving, Adrian Sutton and David Lynch would make good debuts.

 

Seconding the Valli call.

[Drewsky1211 4,812]

In other words:

 

Douglas Hurd, David Attenborough and Yoko Ono also need to return next year.

[thadee 119]

George Soros

Weinstein

Albert II of Belgium

Abdoulaye Wade

Frank Gehry

Giorgio Armani

...

[Commtech Sio Bibble 2,102]

Julie Goodyear is sadly a must in my opinion.

I saw a video of Marion Ross at her recent birthday and she looked very well.  I can see because of her age, but maybe another one that we could wait another year if there are other people who might be a better choice

Mamie Van Doren

There doesn’t seem to be many plausible contenders who have announced a terminal diagnosis this year. Probably a year early for Chris Hoy. 
 

Maybe King Charles as the wildcard? 
 

Feels like it might be time for Bruce Willis.

Given how many will have to be dropped, I wouldn't mind him as a Julie Walters like punt, especially given the wild rumours going round.

[markb4 907]

We could probably drop Jimmy Carter and resurrect him for the 2026 list.
