YoungWillz 21,033 Posted November 6, 2015 David Hasselhoff. He's appearing in panto with The Krankies. And Michelle McManus. Nothing good ever came of that. On a more serious note, I'll put forward Douglas Hurd. No surprise there I know, but if he makes it to the starting gate, he won't cross the line to 2017 imo. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JR976evil 906 Posted November 6, 2015 Stanley Donen, director of Singing in the Rain and many other classics is definitely worth consideration. He turns 90 next year and his passing would almost certainly be acknowledged on the evening news here. Also Clarissa Eden, widow of former PM Anthony Eden, will be 96 next year. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Weebl 216 Posted November 8, 2015 Just as an exercise I have completed a Like for Like replacement for this year's hits. Sam Simon - Earl Hamner Denis Healey - Greville Janner Chris Woodhead - William McPherson Patrick McNee - Tom Baker Al Molinaro - Mary Tyler Moore Maureen O' Hara - Carol Channing B B King - Kay Starr Peter O' Sullevan - Murray Walker George Cole - Peter Vaughan Leonard Nimoy - Walter Koenig John Nash - I M Pei Kirk Kerkorian - Lilliane Bettancourt Christopher Lee - Roger Moore Advisory note: Better choices may be available from other posters. Good spotting for I.M. Pei! An obviously notable person born in 1917 should definitely be on next year's list, without doubt. It was bad enough not having Sir Nicholas Winton on this year's list - what a stupid miss that was Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Weebl 216 Posted November 8, 2015 I was thinking earlier.How does everyone feel about foreign royalty?I would say there are four we should consider for next year: King Michael I of Romania (b 1921) Queen Anne of Romania(b 1923) Takahito,Prince Mikasa of Japan (b1915) Yuriko ,Princess Mikasa of Japan (b 1923) I accept that the last 3 may not be well known enough for the Deathlist ,however I can`t forsee any of them not getting an obituary in the UK. I already suggested Michael of Romania in the ideas and possibilities thread but I was told he was too obscure a figure... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
