ThePrematureBurial 224 Posted January 22, 2020 RIP Terry Jones & congratulations to the deathlist committee for their excellent pick. I enjoyed the Monty Python films, but I'm comforted in knowing that death released him from his severe sufferings. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7916055/Monty-Python-star-Terry-Jones-died-aged-77-agent-says.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phantom 2,533 Posted January 22, 2020 R.I.P. When I was at school and in drama class, the duo of Palin and Jones were one of my inspirations Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebless 203 Posted January 22, 2020 Curious pattern regarding date of first DL successes in recent years. 2017 - Mary Tyler Moore - January 25th 2018 - Mark E Smith - January 24th 2020 - Terry Jones - January 22nd Imagine if Banks snuffed it 20 days earlier last year.

ladyfiona 2,585 Posted January 22, 2020 Was I the only person to suggest him be added a month or so ago? Well that is a boost to my ego if so. Sad way to go though and now to watch the other Pythons and forever hope Michael Palin is immortal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Charlotte's Controller 195 Posted January 22, 2020 I attended a lecture on Chaucer's Knight at university given by Terry Jones in the early eighties, he was an inspiring communicator on his love of medieval history and it's place in the modern world. RIP Mr Jones. The comedy was pretty good as well. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sadly a big piece of what made Terry who he was had been missing for a while, so see it as a merciful release. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Doc 84 Posted January 22, 2020 I am honestly surprised that he was the first hit of the year. I wish he wasn’t, I was a big fan. Have fun making everyone laugh up there. RIP Terry 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CoffinLodger 1,248 Posted January 22, 2020 I'm looking at the Monty Python thread wondering why there were so few posts about Jones's death totally forgetting he was on this years list !That would explain it ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
