CaptainChorizo 1,908 Posted February 12, 2014 Looking at her list of credits on imdb even if in small roles with the films on her resume a suitable obit is more than likely to pop up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Predictor 1,007 Posted February 12, 2014 Has anyone spotted a valid UK obit for Alice Babs? I'm afraid she'll end up in the dreaded List of the Lost section. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,027 Posted February 12, 2014 Babs was never going to get a next-day obituary in England. Wait a couple of weeks, you'll probably get an Independent 1/4-page obit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msc 17,764 Posted February 23, 2014 Probably way ahead of me on this one, TMIB, but as I saw it on the List of the Lost earlier, Christopher Barry had mentions in the Telegraph, The Mirror and behind The Times paywall.

Death Impends 7,379 Posted February 28, 2014 It's only made up of the names that are on the teams that made last year's top 20. Good work with the list. It's odd how we're about to enter March and still haven't lost a major pick among the top teams yet, quite a contrast to last year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaptainChorizo 1,908 Posted February 28, 2014 Outside of say Helen Fawkes I don't think anyone picked by multiple people in the top 20 you can pencil in just yet for 2015. Although seeing the lack of people taking Ritchie Kara,Joe McGinnis and Pete Way makes me think I struck out on those ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
