That was my first thought as well. I suppose the actual cause may be revealed in due course. It's still a shock though, even more than some of the others taken this year. He was treated for Pneumonia a cpl of years ago, which is what most AIDS sufferers ultimately die from, AIDS itself does not kill you, it's the illness that you get because you have AIDS that gets you... Yes I agree. It's certainly looking like that isn't it ?

Tis the season to be jolly...Tra la la la la, la la la laaaaahhhh. It's that time of year again when we look to the stars ( Medical records) and select 5 celebs you think are gonna leave this mortal coil in 2017...( Any that snuff it before 1st Jan 2017 DO NOT COUNT, however you can bring in subs should this happen... I will update last years comp in a cpl of weeks, as I think the grim reaper is sharpening his big tool, ooh err missus, as we speak... My 5 for next year are. Phil The Greek... Brucie Forsyth. Kirk Douglas.... Murray Walker.. Zsa Zsa Gabor... can i ask a rule question?.. Im going to anyway. What if its 2018 in your end of the world but 2017 in ours, do we get the point? Looking at George Michaels death, you do raise a good point, it was 26th Dec here when he died, but 25th Dec in UK, so the best way to resolve this issue, which may well happen, is to use the Star's wiki page as the official benchmark...Hope this clarifies the situation...And remember folks, entries are still open till Jan 31st...Oh and a quick rule change...If one of yours dies before the end of 2016 you have a choice...You can keep Him/Her and get 1/2 a point, or sub him/her with another pick, this happened to Samba who picked Rick Parfitt, he has elected to take the 1/2 point, and is now our early leader...

Seems like Phil might outlive Liz at the moment. So Charlie becomes King and Phil gets a great chance to offend everyone at the funeral

Seems like Phil might outlive Liz at the moment. So Charlie becomes King and Phil gets a great chance to offend everyone at the funeral Through all my life, and also that of my mum's and dad's too, Queen Lizzie the second has upheld the British Monarchy, with great global admiration and respect from many worldwide. Whilst I've never really fussed about the Royal Family, to think it'll pass on to Charles just makes me want to facepalm. Much rather the Windsor's said "We've had a good turn" and let the next King or Queen be chosen in a Hunger Games manner. Or me, I'd be a fucking great King. I'd bring back the scandal, the debauchery, have proper Christmas speeches... "i'm inspired by a million small kind actions"....fuck off Liz, it should be "Oi, listen here you cunts, it's Christmas, LETS GET SHITFAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACED" The top floor of the Palace will be turned in to a whorehouse too. Bojansstalker for King?

Looking at George Michaels death, you do raise a good point, it was 26th Dec here when he died, but 25th Dec in UK, so the best way to resolve this issue, which may well happen, is to use the Star's wiki page as the official benchmark...Hope this clarifies the situation...And remember folks, entries are still open till Jan 31st...Oh and a quick rule change...If one of yours dies before the end of 2016 you have a choice...You can keep Him/Her and get 1/2 a point, or sub him/her with another pick, this happened to Samba who picked Rick Parfitt, he has elected to take the 1/2 point, and is now our early leader... yesssssssszsss he is Fucking get innnnn Although RIP Ric it's such a shame for your family at this time You're not winning You're not winning you're not winning anymore, YOU'RE NOT WINNING ANYMORE... Someone had Liz Smith, but yet to decide on the 1/2 though...

Olivia de Havilland - legendary Hollywood star Billy Graham - evangelist Liz Smith - Nana on The Royle Family Eva Marie Saint - stunning Hollywood beauty Jean-Claude Juncker - Nigel Farage's foe in the EU It's tempting to go for The Duke of Edinburgh, but I can't bring myself to think of how the Queen could possibly cope without him. I don't think she would ever recover from such a monumental loss. I think BBB...Brucie will struggle on another year dreaming of playing one last round of golf. AG....With my new fangled telecaster type thingy I got an alert saying you have Liz Smith... You can take the 1/2 now...or bring in a sub and reset to zero...Up to you...
