Guest Guest Posted December 18, 2013 Couple of questions. This is got to be the best December DL has ever had, right? Also..... did he die because he was overexcited about his story being on the TV and his fucking worn out old body couldn't take it? Or did he see the trailer for it, and thought it looked like tosh so he decided not to bother sticking around....? Only once before we've had 3 hits in december (in 2006 ) but never more than 3 hits which probably means Billy Graham won't die now We've had as many hits in the last 2 weeks as we had in the previous 6 months!

Guest Guest Posted December 18, 2013 I don't suppose there's any chance this could be an elaborate hoax to maximise publicity for tonights show on BBC1 ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,639 Posted December 18, 2013 I don't suppose there's any chance this could be an elaborate hoax to maximise publicity for tonights show on BBC1 ? Unlikely, since when would Sky and other rival broadcasters help the BBC big up a drama? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Guest Posted December 18, 2013 I suspect that there will be one more big death to go in December. Kirk Douglas perhaps? Some old cunt or other will die around Xmas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Death Impends 7,953 Posted December 18, 2013 RIP Ronnie, your bird flipping shant be forgotten. An amazing month for DL in wake of an otherwise stagnant second half, and definitely one of DL's best years in terms of major hits. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
