Is he well known enough in the UK though? Bracknell was generally watched by 5m+ people per day at the height of her career, and McCririck was a household name (for reasons largely bad). So internationally famous or nationally famous in Britain is the criteria.

Yes, i understand... but soulages is not known in England ? 
I find it quite sad that the comitee is UK centered, a lot Of celebrities are just known in your country but that’s the rule so...

It was started by Brits, so having British-known people on the official DL is a side effect of that. But hey, look at the picks on forum pools; very international indeed!

 

I’ve never heard of Soulages, but there’s every likelihood I’m just ignorant :lol: This is the thing, fame is subjective.

Roger Scruton: Apparently a highly renowned writer and has cancer to the point of almost dying so seems pretty serious.

 

 

Roger Scruton looking dreadful recently. And there's far worse photos on Twitter - very frail, definitely dying. A cert for 2020 if he lasts so long.

Lady Bird was 94 when she died. Betty Ford was 93 when she died. Nancy Reagan was 94 when she died. Barbara Bush was 92 when she died.

 

Enter Rosalynn Carter.

Turns 93 years old in 2020, so prime 21st century First Lady dying age.

 

Jimmy is clearly on his way out after many recent hospitalizations, and like the Nixon and Bush couples, I doubt they'll stand to be separated for very long.

 

Get her on Deathlist 2020!

I've never heard of him either  :evil2:

 

He (Simon Garfield) wrote The Wrestling,  a pretty good book about the history of Mick McManus and Big Daddy and all that jazz. Although given how that ones goes, and his other books include the history of AIDS, I expect his Fonts book to go: "They created a new text font. Sadly, his wife then got incurable motor neurone cancer..."

Apparently both Joan Ganz Cooney and Lloyd Morrisett, the two founders of the Sesame Workshop (which created Sesame Street) are still alive. Think one or both of them wouldn’t be bad choices...

Definitely.  I don't follow boxing, but I know who he is.

I don't follow boxing either, but the man beat Ali. So I'd assume so.

Would 'The Flying Nun' Marge Redmond be deathlisty enough? I guess not if June Lockhart hasn't made it.
