Terminator 13 Posted March 1, 2005 Evedence suggests that the prince is getting frailer (this may simply be due to age being born in 1921) as he stopped taking part in the trooping of the colour and fell in the bath whilst on an engagement commemorating the crimean war. He must be losing his marbles also.... Fancy attending an important commemoration in a bath. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rotten Ali 600 Posted March 2, 2005 Just seen a preview item for tomorrows "Entertainment Tonight" show that Scott Hamilton, the US olympic ice skater has a some sort of brain tumour. He looked like he was not that well. Hope to hear more on him tomorrow I think. Did a quick search on rotten.com (17 picks - from about 35,000 players - with most picking him on the 12th Nov 04 and 23rd February 05. nnbd came back with the news that he has also suffered from testicular cancer. notes: Born: 28-Aug-1958 Birthplace: Bowling Green, OH Ethnicity: White Sexual orientation: Straight Occupation: Sports Figure Level of fame: Somewhat Executive summary: Olympic ice skater US Olympic Hall of Fame 1990 Risk Factors: Testicular Cancer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
open pinecone 0 Posted March 4, 2005 I'm sure the words we'd all like to hear is...CONGRATULATIONS! Cliff Richard your time is up. The eternal turtle necked batchelor boy is long overdue a 'permanent summer holiday'. I can't wait to read the REAL salacious truth about this 'puritanical' pleaser of aging coffin dodgers...

themaninblack 2,112 Posted March 6, 2005 Tom Baker was born on 20th January 1934, which makes him 71, not 76, so 2010 list might be more likely.... Oh, has anyone considered former Liverpool midfielder Ray Kennedy, he has been suffering from Parkinsons for some years now... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Handrejka 1,903 Posted March 6, 2005 Yes, I realised my mistake about Tom. I'm not the only one though, somewhere else actually reported his age this year as 76 and that got the fans into a panic, especially as the new series is starting soon. Apparently there is always a Doctor Who death just before a new series starts. I don't mean the regeneration scenes either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
themaninblack 2,112 Posted March 6, 2005 Someone mentioned Peter Wyngarde, who was number 2 in 'The Prisoner'. Maybe we should keep an eye on the health of its star, Patrick Mcgoohan (b.1928) It will it soon be a case of 'Come in number 6, your time is up'? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Josco 49 Posted March 14, 2005 Could be that next years list could be skewed by this Bird Flu thingy. If the estimated number of deaths are any where near correct there could be a lot of celebs going soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cerberus 302 Posted March 14, 2005 Big Bird from 'Sesame Street' and Rod Hull's emu will be first in line. (If I have anything to do with it) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Handrejka 1,903 Posted March 14, 2005 Anyone have information on Nicol Williamson who was in Excalibur and Return to Oz? He's still alive but doesn't seem to have been in anything for about 10 years. Is he ill? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cerberus 302 Posted March 16, 2005 Not everyone will remember him, but Sir Robert Mark, Commissioner of the Met Police 1972-77, was 88 on Monday. He'll certainly get a full-page obit in the 'proper' newspapers when his time comes. Last seen advertising tyres if I remember, setting the tone for John Stalker years later.

Tuber Mirum 125 Posted March 16, 2005 Sir Robert Mark was the chap on the telly who said: "I am convinced this is a major contribution to road safety" Wasn't he? Aquajet Radials or somesuch.

Terminator 13 Posted March 17, 2005 On the subject of TV advertising quotes, who else can remember the name of the man who said: "It's Vortex" ? VORTEX – The Domestos that never made it. The famous commercial from about 1990 sees Professor Neil Butler testing for germs. That same commercial was slightly “doctored” in an episode of Victor Lewis Smith’s Ads Infinitum. Not long after, it wasn’t just the germs that were dead but the bleach as well. Sorted! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boudicca 702 Posted March 18, 2005 Big Bird from 'Sesame Street' and Rod Hull's emu will be first in line. (If I have anything to do with it) I'd put "Orville" first in line. But Big Bird and Emu would be next. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
