gcreptile 10,236 Posted January 30, 2016 Some news on the terminally ill non-celebrities on my team: Tom Bradshaw actually died in December, but it was only made public in January: http://www.worksopguardian.co.uk/news/local/worksop-tributes-paid-to-incredible-husband-dad-and-raf-airman-who-lost-battle-with-cancer-aged-23-1-7658390 Bad luck, but such cases had to be expected.... Jake Bailey's (the student with the inspirational speech) cancer is in remission: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3422578/Jake-Bailey-New-Zealand-amazing-speech-battling-cancer-announces-disease-remission.html On the other hand, relatively obitable Charlotte Eades rather has weeks instead of months left to live, if you watch her youtube videos. Should she die before Joey Feek, she might put Shameless into the virtual lead once more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dr. Zorders 1,269 Posted February 3, 2016 I notice only one person picked the aging gangster Whitey Bulger despite Johnny Depp playing him in a movie last year. Proof of Hollywood's declining influence? Also, when it comes to things you learn from following the DDP, skier Bill Johnson (from the latest update) had a really miserable last 15 years of his life (or more) which TMIB's obit kind of underegged... one of those "grim" sports stories that I never knew before. Reading the bottom half of his wiki is not for the easily depressed! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msc 17,763 Posted February 3, 2016 Some potential contenders...and Pan Breed! The first time I've ever successfully read between the lines on a pick potentially getting better.

To date (and my impeccable knowledge) no one has posted an obit for Delpech that would pass the Sir Creep Test.SC The Independent, who I always assumed would be the place to give us the Delpech obit (mainly based on them doing one for Little Tony in 2013), are definitely going through their backlog at the moment, their last three obits all died in late 2015 (Donald Sinden's brother, some cocktail brer and an art collector). So I think we're within ten days of them doing one for Mr Wight Is Wight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gcreptile 10,236 Posted February 3, 2016 Mark Farren dead, that's going to be a nice fillip to some potential contenders this year. Ah, the candidate with the potential to hurt me the most, has died... A huge error of mine, I think I replaced him on Dec. 30th with Jackie Storrar. A shame for Mr. Farren, I really thought he looked good to last for a while, a bit like Christie Dignam who apparently returns onto the agenda in 2017. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haha, thankfully, there is, Mr. I-picked-Aden-Hailu. But I admit, the boredom of my old work, and the possibility to use the internet liberally during that time, was one of about three main incentives to create that theme team. I'm glad that time is over, because I wanted to feel more useful again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
