msc 18,480 Posted February 24, 2017 Well I try to aim for obscure but I'll admit, the deaths of the manager of the Chelsea Hotel and the former producer of Radio 4 managed to pass even me by... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Another slant on the fame discussion. Was Bard famous in his own right or famous for managing a hotel which famous people frequented? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungWillz 21,067 Posted February 24, 2017 I reported Ember's death in the Radio 4 thread. If I'd thought there was going to be a prediction result, I'd have hurtled here yesterday. No Bruna? Wow... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rockhopper penguin 2,265 Posted March 1, 2017 Kaufman and Waddington feel like certainties. Paxton has a following but is he too american? John Hampshire is probably too obscure. Bruna? Who knows, unless you are the producer of the show. PS if Cabral makes an appearance i'll stick my head in a leopard seal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungWillz 21,067 Posted March 1, 2017 At this point it's hard to see past Kaufman, Waddington, Newman and Bruna. Oh and the big name that will die tonight.... Well you never know... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Dead Cow 620 Posted March 1, 2017 I'd be very surprised if Irvine Sellar didn't make it. I'd suspect Kaufman, Paxton and Delaney would too, as well as someone who is yet to die. But I'm not the producer of the show. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
