Lard Bazaar 3,799 Posted January 1, 2016 I had him on my list last year, so if he dies this year I will not be impressed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Guested Posted January 1, 2016 Thought he died years ago but must have confused him with his former co-host Alastair Burnett Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rotten Ali 600 Posted January 1, 2016 As news readers go I've had a very unimpressive investment in Bryant Gumbel for a number of years. We knew Jenkins was done-for but has anyone got any inside on Gall? or is it just a hunch? He is on my long list but I've no listed issues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I picked him last year purely on his age, can't find anything recent about him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pedro67 232 Posted January 1, 2016 I put him in my DDP this year as there was a brief clip of him on telly a month or so back, and he looked ripe for a departure. I had forgotten he existed, and was amazed he was still alive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Mad Hatter 1,092 Posted January 5, 2016 His wiki page was vandalised to make him a ridiculously old age and it was also falsely reported dead. Who is doing this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Numpty 3 Posted January 19, 2016 He lives near me in Penshurst and I caught the train from London Bridge the other week and he was sitting opposite. I followed him off the train and in my opinion still looked good on his pins. I would stick my neck out on this one and say he should see another Christmas or two unless there is a very cold snap that lasts several weeks . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also, even if he died in the same week the Queen abdicated while an asteroid hit Mexico and Elvis rode a T-Rex down the Strand, he'd still get a Herald obit at the very least. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
