The Telegraph, The Hollywood Reporter, The Times and The Guardian all have full length obituaries up now and they were published within an hour of the news first breaking (slight delay probably due to verifying reports / minor tweaks to detail in text body). Let’s not be too harsh on the written press. They’re generally quite quick. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord Fellatio Nelson 6,218 Posted April 6, 2020 She had a good career but not a great one. I think she was born in the wrong era. Strong, independent woman who could kick arses was not really an asset in the 60s and 70s. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gooseberry Crumble 5,337 Posted April 6, 2020 Unless I am mistaken Honor Blackman is the first time I have correctly predicted who will be the next death in the thread poll. I've always liked Honor and found her to be a fascinating lady to watch or read in interviews as well as in her performing roles. Definitely a decent embodiment of pure sass. Rest in peace. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even with a few direct or indirect Covid deaths, overtaking is not guaranteed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well... the death average is 2 deaths per moth until now... and still a lot of time.. . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
