Toast 16,140 Posted November 3, 2022 4 minutes ago, Ulitzer95 said: IMDb has always put pages up for upcoming shows and films with cast listings though. But they shouldn't be added names that are speculated / not confirmed. I think that's fine for commercial productions which are usually under way, but not for intended live coverage of a real event. Not before it's taken place. 5 minutes ago, Ulitzer95 said: The site is getting worse IMO. Hopefully Elon Musk will buy it and sack everyone. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gisooo 3,361 Posted November 3, 2022 According to Equity Magazine also these actors are dead, can someone find when? Maggie Don (IMDb) - born 1943 Michael Stainton (IMDb) - born 1935 Michael Munn (IMDb) - born 1952 (there are two, don't believe is the author) Ruth Meyers (IMDb) - born 1936 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,529 Posted November 3, 2022 Wikipedia and IMDB seem to think that the actor Michael Munn is the author Michael Munn? The guy was at the centre of a moderate scandal about clearly making up stories about his friendships with various Hollywood luminaries around a decade ago.

Munn (both the actor and writer) died "at the end of July" from a heart attack according to this. Odd that he died completely off-the-radar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Old Crem 3,605 Posted November 4, 2022 21 hours ago, Toast said: Yes, but she can't have appeared in something that hasn't happened yet. And that applies to everyone else listed under it - even the King! The event shouldn't be on there at all. Yeah. I mean obviously there is more of an chance of Harry and Megan skipping it but anyone could become unwell and not be able to attend. They would only 100% cancel for Charles maybe not even for Camilla. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although they do not consider it as a "reliable source"! There are old photos on social media, very few, but they were taken before 2016! Swiss-Italian actor Paul Muller (wiki) is indeed deceased. The Italian Westerns blog covered this issue in August, and they give their source as Peplum Paradise, a group of film historians on Facebook. The National Library of France have updated their entry with the same death info on his profile. If it's good enough for them, it's good enough for me! A past DDP pick I believe. Also on at least one shadow list this year! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

His wedding notice from 1947: His death notice from 1986: Did in January 1986, aged 59, after years spent in a mental institute. Sucks to be Sir Cunto who has him picked in a pool this year!

Ulitzer95 12,641 Posted November 8, 2022 Can anyone help with this one? England cricketer Mary Johnson (wiki) is on my watchlist on Wiki. Someone just edited her page today to say she died on 17 Jul 2017 (aged 92). Can't find confirmation for this anywhere. Sadly you can't search in the GRO by first name alone. I'm not sure if Johnson was her married name or not? How would we go about confirming this one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hm... the IP who did this also edited the living centenarians list to remove Tatyana Frutze, citing her Russian wiki article. This was also done in September by an IP who also killed off Lise Nørgaard and Marita Camacho Quirós, citing nothing. If it's the same person, they might have just made it up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Obviously it's a clean sweep at the top, but Renee Renor (the singer who performs "A Woman In Love") has very little information online about her. Certainly no death date. So this book says Renee Renor's real name was Evelyn Camarillo, and she later married someone with the surname Medina. There is an Evelyn Camarillo in the 1940 census, who was born in 1937... is the woman in this clip older than 18? I'm aware that teenagers looked ancient in the 1950s: 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gisooo 3,361 Posted December 1, 2022 Is British trumpeter Duncan Campbell (Wiki) still living? What about opera singer April Cantelo (Wiki) ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ulitzer95 12,641 Posted December 1, 2022 2 minutes ago, Gisooo said: Is British trumpeter Duncan Campbell (Wiki) still living? We already covered him in December 2020. Our findings weren't definite but it's likely he's still alive in the south of England. (there is no Duncan Campbell born 1926 in that area in the GRO up until December 2021, so likely he was alive up until then). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ulitzer95 12,641 Posted December 1, 2022 31 minutes ago, Gisooo said: What about opera singer April Cantelo (Wiki) ? 99% sure she's still alive. Someone at the Telegraph has an almost encyclopaedic knowledge of opera singers, and they pick up on news of the deaths of obscure ones pretty quickly. Cantelo is far from obscure. Looking at her Wikipedia, she had quite a prominent career! Edit: Opera Magazine wished her a happy 94th birthday earlier this year, so definitely living. 2nd edit: Someone did a portrait of April in old age in 2021. It's here. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
