gcreptile 11,083 Posted January 1, 2020 Well done with addition. Statistically, it's his turn this year. And the people close to him imply that the illness is right on time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,554 Posted January 1, 2020 I know...I know! Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition. In fact, those who do expect... Big fan of Terry J - sadly his time is marked, with friends saying they're not sure how long he has left. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ladyfiona 2,668 Posted January 1, 2020 Yeah I suggested him recently but didn't think he'd be chosen. Michael Palin says it's only a matter of time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toast 16,237 Posted January 22, 2020 Very sad, but expected and I'd got him in nearly everything as it turns out. Farewell to a comedy legend, and thanks for all the laughs, Terry. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomTomTelekom 3,731 Posted January 22, 2020 RIP to my 1st hit. Poor fellow spent the last few years suffering from dementia, but he'll be remembered for the fun and happiness he gave to others. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcreptile 11,083 Posted January 22, 2020 Aah,... RIP...so the rumours and personal between-the-lines statements were true... Which does surprise me a little, because dementia isn't THAT deadly as cancer.... however, I believed those statements and had him on my main team. So I thought about checking how my team is doing now.... then it dawned in me that I am responsible for the score update myself... I'm at work now, it will happen this evening. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
