What a shame that Harold Pinter

Weakened so fast in the long cold Winter

 

While as a playwright, super dooper

For those of us thinking "party pooper"

Were sad to see the first obit

Confirmed his timing did not fit

 

For sadly Harold had to leave

The day before, on Christmas Eve.

 

Edit:

 

Now if only he could have quit

At the same hour as Eartha Kitt

As Pinter might have said ... oh sh*t

Harold Pinter is the 14th success of 2008.

He is the 174th success since 1987.

The 2008 list is now in 1st place shared with 2003, out of a possible 22 lists.

 

A good year. Hopefully we can squeeze one more in before the 1st January.

Couldn't stand the mans plays - had to study them in school - but quite liked him as a person.

 

Not really one of the names I'm too happy to see make the final cut in the end, but he did very well to hang on as long as he did.

Pity we didn't have Eartha Kitt down, we could have done the double on Christmas Day.

Both were reported on Christmas Day so I assumed both had died on Christmas Day. Mind you I was overdosing on turkey and wine at the time.

I read about his politics. He was to the left of Kim Jong-Il. What a kook!

This is a terrible place to put this imo , but there we are.

 

Lady Antonia Fraser suffered a fall over Christmas and has spent time recently in hospital: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11592987/EDEN-CONFIDENTIAL-Lady-Antonia-Fraser-misses-concert-honour-spending-day-hospital.html

 

Afaik, only @Pedro67 has actually coughed to picking her for the DDP this year. 

 

I'll leave it up to esteemed Admins or members to decide whether to open a thread for her (she is notable in her own right).

She was very famous before marrying Pinter.  You'd have been better putting her under Authors.
