Sean 6,337 Posted July 20, 2017 On 17/03/2017 at 23:21, Shaun of the Dead said: Sort of a reverse pool and the opposite of the Elizabethan Deadpool.Pick 50 names of living people born between 12th December 1936 and 5th February 1952.When the Queen dies the game ends and those with the most names still breathing is the winner.If there is a tie it will go to sudden death e.g if two teams still have 50 names alive the game will continue until one is down to 49. All entries must have their own wikipedia page as of today 17th March 2017. It is called the Georgian Deadpool as King George VI was the Queens father and Prince Charles will become King George when he is King.If Charles dies before the Queen the game is still valid but the title will be an epic fail. Entries open until 23:59 on the 20th April 2017.No entries will be accepted after this.Here is my team. 1)Prince Charles 2)Princess Anne 3)Donald Trump 4)Arnold Schwarzeneger 5)Bruce Springsteen 6)Jeremy Corbyn 7)Jane Seymour 8)Alan Johnson MP 9)Helen Worth 10)Twiggy 11)Paula Wilcox 12)Sherrie Hewson 13)Lesley Joseph 14)George W Bush 15)Elizabeth Warren 16)John Bowe 17)Peter Hain 18)John Nettles 19)Melanie Phillips 20)Peter Hitchens 21)Sharon Maughn 22)Michael Kitchen 23)Nigel Havers 24)Derek Hatton 25)James Mattis 26)Peter Gabriel 27)Wilko Johnson 28)Duncan Bannatyne 29)Jack Dromey 30)Harriet Harman 31)Martin Shaw 32)Peter Tatchell 33)Louise Jameson 34)Meryl Streep 35)Peter Frampton 36)Noel Edmonds 37)Brian Capron 38)Ben Carson 39)David Troughton 40)Jeff Sessions 41)Eugene Levy 42)Elaine Paige 43)Alison Steadman 44)Elizabeth Estensen 45)Graham Seed 46)Jack Straw 47)Virginia Wade 48)Duncan Bannatyne 49) Billie Jean King 50)Mitt Romney Just realise I put Bannatyne twice so will pick Julie Waters .

msc 18,485 Posted July 20, 2017 Bannatyne was on The TV That Made Me 2 or 3 days ago, Shaun. form watch opportunity. Didn't look that bad, given his health issues. The show is basic 6am BBC fluff interview stuff. Not insulting or groundbreaking or anything like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
