Apologies for the long list. Spoiler tagging things for length doesn't seem to work.

 

That concludes the post for "last minute add of old people who might be unique picks" selection.

 

 

In passing, I suppose Patrick Macnee will be on a fair few lists this year. He had 2 strokes in 2010, and photos of him in the US looked very frail. Though I can't seem to find the photos online now 2 months later - very strange.

you missed a few people, oh, & why do you have Doris Day on there twice, & on two different years?

No idea why Day was on it twice, I've edited out the wrong one.

 

I will have missed people through ignorance and forgetfulness, it's not a set in stone list as more a pooling of resources so far.

msc - well done for your posting #441 in this thread - nice to see you making a real effort up there.

I've just pasted it into a word document and it was 8 pages, 444 lines 2,996 words and 15,832 characters.

 

Now all you have to do is sort out which ones you are going to run with! - oh and Lardy going a bit moist for you after looking at that long post!

My list for 2011 ranked by age:

 

Delores Hope-27th May 1909, widow of Bob Hope will be 102 years old.

David Rockefeller-June 12, 1915, will be 96 years old, last of the Rockefeller brothers of the 3rd generation, longevity runs in family but he is getting pretty old.

Sargent Shriver-November 9, 1915, late stage Alzheimer's and has been for some time now.

Zsa Zsa Gabor-February 6, 1917, 2010 was a horrible year for her health wise and she can't hold on forever.

Berry Ford-April 8, 1918, a hermit since her husband's death, Ford library told me she was still living at home but in 2011 she will be 93 years old, same age her husband died.

George McGovern-July 19, 1922, no known public whearabouts in 2010 in spite of some activity in 2008 and 2009, will be 89 years old.

Bob Dole-July 22, 1923, hospitalized for pnemonia in 2010, other health problems in recent years, limited public appearances since 2008 and will be 88 years old.

George HW Bush-June 12, 1924, slowing down, few public appearances in 2010, Obama will present him medal of freedom in January, a sign of something we don't know?

One to watch would Nick Courtney, British cult TV actor - he was The Brigadier in Doctor Who for about 30 years - who, according to his friends on the convention circuit, was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in the Summer. And he's already had a stroke.

 

Apart from Anne Feeney (lung cancer), my list would probably be sadly rather conservative, with a bunch of old Nobel laureates and that sort. I know Charles Townes (inventor of lasers) was a bit ill around September, but was in fine fettle by October last I heard, so should be around for a while. Now I've said that he'll be dead in January.

Wow. A hall of famer diagnosed with esophageal cancer just hours after I submit my team. Of course.
