Who Should Be On The 2018 Deathlist?

Wonder if they ever meet at the original pub where the Death List started? Is it still there by the way? Agreed, it would be a nice way to spend New Years Eve! ( I know, I don`t get out much. :))

 

Don't quote me, but iirc, the original pub was in a student union? The answer is somewhere on this forum.

I'm going to go with an obvious one:  Sabah al-Ahmad al-Jaber al-Sabah of Kuwait.

Number 1 will be Billy Graham. He's done. It's over. Just prior to the nuclear holocaust. He'll get out early.

Just added the first new name to my longlist after submitting all my teams. It's Des O'Connor.

I've thought that for the whole of 2016 and 2017 and he's still here!

I do have a feeling that a lot of the bedblockers or long timers will go next year which will prevent a logjam. 

 

I don't think both Kirk and Olivia will pass away next year, maybe neither of them. But I do think the likes of Bob Dole, Billy Graham, Denis Norden, Vera Lynn and possibly Prince Philip will die next year opening up huge room for new  big names for the committee to use in the future.

Only remaining bedblockers are Kirk, Olivia, Vera Lynn and Billy Graham. I think only Billy will die next year.

The forum has had its say on Stiles in The Crowdsourced Deathlist and the result may surprise you later!

 

Hows that for a Buzzfeed-esque tease.

My eight to go and reasons why

 

Gay Byrne (still sounding strong)

Sandy Gall (excellent health)

Queen Elizabeth II (excellent health and only 91)

David Prowse (too early)

Emperor Akihito (not abdicating until 2019, still in reasonable health)

Ian St John (still robust despite cancer diagnosis)

Honor Blackman (excellent health)

Doug Ellis (excellent health)

Oh I'd say Denis Norden, Bob Dole and Prince Philip are all bedblockers having been there five years and likely a sixth year. Not as big a bedblockers as others but bedblockers yes especially as I don't think they will be dropped from the list until they die.

Maybe Graham. I think Bush Sr and Prince Phillip of Edinburgh are nice options as well.

It’s gotta be either a new entry for McCain or the Reverend.

I was thinking Bush Sr jumps to top spot.

 

But I have never guessed this correctly.
