msc 18,439 Posted December 25, 2017 6 years ago, Mirror journo Sue Carroll died aged 58. I shall never forget this, you see, as I had lined her up to be the joker for my first Pan Breed DDP team. I was just checking the BBC news at a family Christmas meal and saw news of her demise, and swore loudly. Had to pass it off as having whacked my foot against the table by accident! And of course, my first sub was Luise Rainer, who didn't die. To compound things, my 2nd sub was Rhodes Boyson, who DID die in 2012. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
