Australian radio host Mel Dzelde has died:

I think she was on my endless Cup lists. She had coverage by Oprah just two weeks ago, and so made a few of my 2023 lists.

She had cancer and ALS.

So as mentioned elsewhere, last week I checked with the Cmme if Dzelde and Trigga the rapper were OK DDP picks with the fame threshold.

 

A line from DI  to me earlier today: "Couldn't you have asked about Henry Kissinger instead?" :lol:

Legendary Birmingham football commentator Tony Bulter has died according to the local Facebook output.  May well get a QO.

 

Jasper Carrott immortalised Butler’s abrasive style in a number of his skits.

"Skin cancer" being the key missing phrase from your sensationalist post, and "discovered at a very early stage" being the key detail.

Vast majority survive skin cancer. No need to do The Sun's bidding and join in the sensationalism they employ for clicks.
