rockhopper penguin 2,265 Posted September 30, 2014 As mentioned above Linda Bellingham. She wants one more xmas. If she also fancies another new year party she could be a cert. http://www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/brave-lynda-bellingham-tells-well-wishers-4344927 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
themaninblack 2,112 Posted September 30, 2014 Random bit of trivia: according to Paul Darrow, Bellingham's tight-fitting costume burst open when she guest-starred in Blake's 7. Sounds like she was a good sport about it. What would Avon have made of those two massive mammaries staring at him? A cocked eyebrow, no doubt... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bibliogryphon 9,592 Posted September 30, 2014 I do not want to be cynical but there is a book to sell and if we stray into Wilko Johnson territory then we should summon The Inquisitor Trial of a Time Waster? Yes, didn't Wilko say that he wasn't going to have any treatment, or something along those lines? Then he goes on an apparently never-ending tour, puts out an album, and ...... I mean, good luck to the bloke and all that, but you can't blame people if they feel a bit misled. Erm.... no. Actually I think what happened is he said he wouldn't have any (more?) chemo, which quite a lot of people do because chemo is awful, but then they did some sort of "experimental" surgery to remove the tumour this summer. So it's not quite really "misleading" the world into thinking he was dying, just he thought he was gonna die cause he didn't want to suffer through chemo then some other option came up. To be honest I do not doubt Lynda Bellingham's sincerity in this, I just wanted the opportunity to make the lame Doctor Who gag. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not too bad for what I believe is nowadays called a MILF. Technically she wouldn't have been a MILF in 1980/81 as it was a couple more years before she had children. I'd agree she was reasonably attractive Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In the unlikely event that Sam Simon makes the start line I'd say he's a nailed on joker, other than that some front runners are old but - surely - dependable (Billy Graham), whilst some younger ones haven't got proven obit-worthy status, or are hard to call (like Wilko Johnson - who seemed a shoo in this year). So, proper dead pooling, then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So, proper dead pooling, then. Joost will be a popular one as well as Simon. I think Caroline Aherne and Ali Carter might be popular "punt" jokers too. There will be swings to Jimmy Hill, Rob Ford and Jules Bianchi (foolishly) too, I bet. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
