rockhopper penguin 2,265 Posted March 10, 2017 Pretty much not as predicted. I guess that's it for Parfitt. Enjoy the show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YoungWillz 21,067 Posted March 17, 2017 My guess is Surtees, Forgeham, Hodgkin, Casey and Rubinger. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,480 Posted March 17, 2017 My picks would be nearly identical to YW, so I'll just cheat instead and say "Surtees, Casey, plus 3 archive ones of people no one has ever heard of before..." 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rockhopper penguin 2,265 Posted March 17, 2017 Surtees is a definite but rest not announced. Rumours of a major celebrity having a choking fit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Dead Cow 620 Posted March 23, 2017 As rockhopper doesn't seem to be around to kickstart the predictions, I'll fill in for him this week. Who could possibly make this week's line up? Chuck Berry and Colin Dexter feel like certs. David Rockefeller too dull? Martin McGuinness too controversial? Inomjon Usmonxo'jayev too obscure? Who knows, unless you are the producer of the show.
