Dead Pool 22

[Antepli Ejderha]

Did anyone have Sidney Poitier?

[Kevin S]

Nope.

Eight hours left to join if anyone else fancies a go.

[Sean of the Shed]

Ding.

[Rogin the Armchair fan]

As Sean didn't specify which Lord Sainsbury I'm not sure that counts.

[Sean of the Shed]

You should have argued that at the time.

[G-Man]

Oh, put a Lidl on it.

[Kevin S]

I've added a couple of columns to the sheet to record deaths and ages at death. Sainsbury has checked out.

[longeared]

Point for Sporting as Sonny Ramadhin has died aged 92. I also see he had John Toshack who is in hospital with Covid.

[elguapo4]

Gordon Lee gives me my first point in about 5 years. Sorry Gordon.

[Sean of the Shed]

Ding.

[Patrick Thistle]

Flipping heck, Sean...

[Sean of the Shed]

I'm the fucking Grim Reaper, me.

[G-Man]

This year I decided to drop the ghoulish Cardinal Angelo Sodano, a real evilton, from my annual list, presuming him to be one of the undead who live forever. Now he has died...

[Sean of the Shed]

So the sad loss of Uwe Seeler gives me 3 out of 5. Kenneth Baker and Roy Hattersley might be feeling a cold breath on the back of their necks right now.

[elguapo4]

After Bernard Cribbins sad passing, I'm now on two.

[Kevin S]

Norman Tebbit
Henry Kissinger
Dick Cheney
Queen Lizzy II
Douglas Hurd

SB gets the point for Queeny.

[San Bernardhinault]

4 more makes it a good year

[Kevin S]

delicatemoth scores a tap in with Lansbury at 96.

[Kevin S]

Current scores. SB in fourth place as Lansbury lived for 220 days longer than the Queen did.

Sean of the Shed - 3 points
elguapo4 - 2 points
Sporting - 1 point (92 years)
San Bernardhinault - 1 point (96 years - 35,204 days)
delicatemoth - 1 point (96 years - 35,424 days)

The other 17 of us - 0 points

[Sits]

Sean of the Shed, earlier:

[elguapo4]

Amor de Cosmos climbs into third place with Jerry Lee Lewis' passing.

[Kevin S]

As we approach the last three days of the game, would anyone be so kind as to set up the 2023 edition?

Edit - and please do shout up if I've missed any deaths on the list (Google Sheet on first page).

[Kevin S]

Walt Flanagans Dog scores a late one (ha!) for John Bird by the way. Straight up to 3rd place.

[Kevin S]

More late drama. Nobody had Westwood this year but Pele secures a second point for delicatemoth, who leapfrogs elguapo4 into second place, knocking WFD off the podium almost immediately.

Pele + Lansbury = 178
Cribbins + Lee = 180

[Kevin S]

Pele also the youngest this year (so far).
