msc 18,421 Posted June 20, 2018 @YoungWillz was astounded that this 80s children's entertainer (famous for narrating Thomas the Tank Engine in the UK - Americans had George Carlin iirc) didn't have his own friend. He appeared on the original Deathlist. So here he is, a thread for all things Starkey. Apparently he was also in a band back in the day. 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YoungWillz 21,007 Posted June 20, 2018 Look at my Hare's Pool team, plenty there for the accursed...ha! In recent times, Starr's stopped signing autographs, become a great-grandfather and been knighted. And it's his birthday soon.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grim Up North 3,725 Posted June 20, 2018 My whole post was a piss take based on the other thread that you have already read and commented on - thank god there are a few Glaswegians on here with a proper sense of humour. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Russ 7,220 Posted June 20, 2018 I suspect that it’ll be Paul who’ll be last alive solely for the irony of the Paul is Dead rumors... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Russ 7,220 Posted June 20, 2018 In seriousness though, Ringo had a lot of health issues in the past. Not recently, but in his early Beatles day, he had to miss touring due to some rare illnesses. I doubt he’ll reach 90... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of course he is. But he's otherwise healthy. Ben Stiller is famous enough, as is Goldie Hawn, Timothy Robbins, and Justins Trudeau and Timberlake. Where are their threads?

Ringo Starr is one of the most famous men in the world, he has a lifelong health condition, he is in his late 70s, he is a member of a band of which two have already died far younger than they should have and he looks like dog-shit. It's fairly clear why he deserves his own thread above someone young and care-free like Justin Trudea or Justin Timberlake.
