MSC's theory on the dangers of #14 will be proven again, at least that's what the people who made her the joker (that includes me) think.

It's up!

 

Vera Lynn at #2? Fuck me sideways! At least Olivia de Havilland is relatively far up at #10.

 

Also, Leah Bracknell? Gord Downie? King Michael? Gay Byrne? Errol Christie? That's good.

 

Three MTM people: Betty White (FUCK NO!), Valerie Harper, and Mary Tyler Moore herself.

 

Decent list, might be record breaking tbh.

If you thought last year had an epic number of high profile celebrity deaths, this year they are expecting us to lose the Duke, the Queen, a Pope and two ex-US Presidents! :P

The only complaint I have is the return of Doug Ellis and dropping Chirac and Brucie. Other than that, well down

 

Brucey is No. 37...

Booth, King Michael, Saint, and Stiles all welcome additions. Surprised Downie and Christie made it, but that's not a complaint as much as an observation. I like the Hefner and Akihito picks as well, and Benedict was overdue for an appearance.

Colin Mead's, Mario Soares and Stefan Karl Stefansson why no list?

Great list! Let´s hope the serial killer Ian Brady goes first, before he gets released from prison. (And the tick-turd on my list: Rodney Alcala needs to expire soon too.)

Really strong list though the exclusion of John Wetton when he looks like Sam Simon/Barry Gibb in their last few months and meets the fame requirement is a head scratcher like Marks last year.

Fame level issues for all of them.

I was going to predict 9 hits for two reasons:

a ) We had 9 hits in 2010 so if the pattern continues we should also have 9 in 2017.

b ) After all the old people and icons dead in 2015 and 2016, it's time for a lull.

 

But this list is damn good!

I really like all the terminal inclusions. Errol Christie, King Michael, etc.

Glad you brought back Valerie Harper, Mugabe, and Mubarak.

I'm pissed you included Betty White, though, SHE IS IMMORTAL. :)

 

So now I predict anywhere from 14-16.

Clive James is off the hook, so no token Aussie on the list this year.

 

Also, Fats remains the only rocker. Thought they might have taken a punt on another one after the events of the last 12 months.

 

BTW, is Darth Vader really that sick? It sounds to me more like just general old age.

Is Honir Blackman sick? If not, why her over, say, Kim Novak or even a return appearance by Doris Day? Just wondering if Honour was selected due to age alone.

The most shocking Entry ought to be David Prowse. I do welcome Douglas to the top spot.
