drunkasaskunk 194 Posted February 2, 2018 Just a thought - do we really need photographs of the picks? The brief bio should be enough information. From my own list I chose Sinclair, Angus Born in Glasgow, Scotland (exact date unknown) Scottish serial killer. Sentenced in 2014 to life in prison for the World's End Murders in 1977. Does knowing that he looks like THIS make that much of a difference? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't be fooled, that was just his day to day normal rapist murderer looks. He's probably gone downhill since, hopefully. More recent photo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Creep 7,070 Posted February 2, 2018 Disappointed that you whiffed on the opportunity to put a fine young lady's (Falkholt) photo on the DDP front page and instead you shove Jimmy fucking Armfield at me. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drol 11,945 Posted February 2, 2018 I think Falkholt had something Southern Italian in her appearance. In fact I controlled and her mother was from Sicily. Self given applause for that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Death Impends 7,975 Posted February 2, 2018 It's almost as if Armfield had established UK notability and wasn't known solely for getting into a car crash. 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,525 Posted February 2, 2018 Plus that's a great fucking photo, Loses something when squashed down for the homepage I admit, but I love it. Nearly captioned it "see you in a few months Jack?". 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From my own list I chose Sinclair, Angus Born in Glasgow, Scotland (exact date unknown) On a serious note, though the photos aren’t necessary they do put a face to a name. ON THE OTHER HAND....why the hell do I give a damn where the person was born? Not only do I not care but this seems like a LOT of unnecessary work for the Admin to track down. If you want to do away with something allow me to suggest that. So Angus Sinclair was born in Glasgow, so what? SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is it possible that 20 Hits No Problem is actually Death? Because if so, I don't think that's very sporting. Death, his/her immediate family members, and any affiliated companies should be barred from taking part. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spade_Cooley 9,525 Posted February 5, 2018 Assuming Ann Gillis and WPC Davies both get obits (which I would assume are guaranteed by the end of February), that means January 2018 will beat the record for the most hits in one month. A nice leisurely start to my time at the helm then. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dr_T 254 Posted February 6, 2018 I think the death of John Mahoney has been picked up in at least one other thread. But for your convenience here is a link: http://www.news.com.au/entertainment/tv/flashback/frasier-star-john-mahoney-dead-at-77/news-story/19a896c49f6dea3f1fca5c163624f119 One for the List of the Missed as he was selected by 1 team in 2017 if not other years.
