Bibliogryphon 9,592 Posted February 9, 2015 Pride & Prejudice and Zombies - cast and crew of 1995 BBC adaptation of much loved Jane Austen novel. This could be quite a good team option. Whilst watching this for the agillionth time ( a number so large I had to make up a new word for it) I realised that no major cast member has shuffled off, even some of the older minor players are still with us. Twenty years on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gcreptile 10,979 Posted February 11, 2015 I had almost made a theme team out of people the world, or I, would have genuinely been sad about if they had died, people like Morgan Freeman, or George R.R. Martin, or Björk. I would have called it "Oh, no, you didn't!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I dread the day he will appear on my list. Well he's 77, give him another 8-10 years He's not in perfect health, though: "On a brutally hot day in Los Angeles, he served up sweet mint tea and watermelon spears and asked if I noticed his "plastic parts," pulling up his white linen shirt just enough to reveal tubes that ran below his waistline, the result of a recent health scare. As we sat to chat, he noted, "I'm surprised at how much physical energy it takes to play the trumpet."" http://www.spin.com/articles/jon-hassell-goes-below-the-belt-challenges-phillip-glass-to-dance-off/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gcreptile 10,979 Posted April 2, 2015 I'm thinking of putting all those "overdose, suicide, assassination" candidates into one team and call it "They couldn't wait" or maybe "God called early today" or something like that, Or maybe a theme about people whose name contains variants of the word "cross", like Cruz or Delacroix, Cross itself, or Skandinavian and German variants like Kruse or Kreuzer. The name could be "Crucified" or "On the Cross". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
