Toast 16,144 Posted December 10, 2016 Anyway. Can I replace Sharon Jones with Sara Coward please. You can but the express stated she is 68.So if they are right she would be an ineligable pick. Ah, I see what's happened. I was checking her age and according to the BBC her DOB is 3 June 1955. Except that's the bloody character, isn't it. I'll get back to you on that one then. OK, Ray Winstone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DevonDeathTrip 2,358 Posted December 10, 2016 Shaun, is it too late to enter a team for this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sean 6,330 Posted December 10, 2016 No no.Teams of 50 names can be submitted any time and amended after someone on the list has died and gets the required obituary whether you picked the said individual or not.Then you can change any number of picks or none at all.If there are no changes I will carry forward the names to the next round automatically.Unique picks 2 points.Duplicates are 1 point.
