Godot 148 Posted October 20, 2008 Plews was simply one of those "has to be in it to win it" picks for the DDP and a good example why the DL should never take its DDP entry too seriously. I didn't even know I had him until I looked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DevonDeathTrip 2,288 Posted October 20, 2008 Broadcaster, writer, humourist and journalist Miles Kington has died aged 66. A well known face on TV a few years back, though not seen much recently. He wrote a column in the "Independent", the last of which was printed in yesterday's edition. He was a renowned authority on jazz. He always appeared to have a very cheery outlook on life, so will be sadly missed I'm sure. One of the forerunners for the "80 Days Around the World", eventually taken up by Michael Palin, to huge success. I think Kington would probably have been just as enjoyable. A great shame - we're losing too many of the likes of him early whilst boring old fossils or idiots continue to roam the earth. For my money the best columnist of the 80s well ahead of Alan Coren. Radio 4 are doing a feature this week on letters Miles Kington wrote after he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in January. I tuned in this morning (shamefully admits to listening to Woman's Hour ) and it was very good. You can listen online here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DevonDeathTrip 2,288 Posted October 23, 2008 Australian multiple murderer James Miller, the "Truro Killer", has died in prison at the age of 68. He was one of two men who killed six women in the 1970s. Their murder spree came to a sudden end when his partner in crime, Christopher Worrell and a seventh woman who was their next intended victim, were killed in a car crash. Meanwhile, the Daily Mail claim that the Bali Bombers have "only hours to live". These guys are the ultimate "death teases" and I fully expect them to be alive when I wake up in the morning.

maryportfuncity 10,016 Posted October 24, 2008 Hardly obit-worthy by our usual standards but I've just heard that Mark Brann has died, aged 32. Lived down south and knew a thing or two about exotic animals, even ran an 'exotic pet centre.' Had the odd dealing with him and was greatly impressed by his knowledge, didn't realise he had epilepsy bad enough to be life threatening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TAFKAG 70 Posted October 24, 2008 Meanwhile, the Daily Mail claim that the Bali Bombers have "only hours to live". These guys are the ultimate "death teases" and I fully expect them to be alive when I wake up in the morning. They've got at least a week. Only a ray clemency plea from UN peace envoys xzandra, Vaagheid and BC Alum can save them now. "All the matters relating to legal procedures have been completed,'' Panjaitan told reporters in Jakarta today. "The decision is final.

Dave to the Grave 11 Posted October 24, 2008 Only a ray clemency plea from UN peace envoys xzandra, Vaagheid and BC Alum can save them now. TAFKAG, I'll try and keeper this on topic. Do you think when the lever or trigger is given a paul, robinason of a father, a goal has been achieved? Or should a trench be dug, filled with alcohol, I would choose Gordons, banks high enough to prevent escape to victory, then throw in a match? Then we could watch the magnificent ditchburn.
