    Ramones on 6 Music. Now Playing episode dedicated to The Ramones, great thing about iPlayer is you can skip the dull bits.

    He's not really a celebrity (not that many of them are true celebrities). This thread isn't an obituary, we're betting on who will die here!
    It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.

    ...and helicopter blades too. Did a lot of ariel filming for TV shows too.
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    Peter Sallis

    Would go for Rolf Harris but he's a strong candidate for a diy job, which I assume would make his entry void here.

    Surprise demise of the year : Charlie Sheen - could be messy, could be bizarre, could well be comical.

    Sadly, I reckon 2014 will be awash with famous people calling it a day.
    Dickie Attenborough, Michael Caine, Kirk Douglas and Zsa Zsa Gabor are amongst those that ought not to bother buying green bananas or an extra loaf of bread for the freezer.


    :wink:
    Watch out Sallis, you're next.

    Dickie Attenborough, very sad, rather old but my favourite movie was 'The ship that died of shame' excellent acting.

    That's in really bad taste, I reckon she'll hang on to the death. Oh no, is that in bad taste too? Anyway, I reckon she'll make it to 2015 just to prove you wrong. Must remember to put her on my list if she does see the year out.
    Just checked the BBC website to check she hasn't kicked the bucket yet.
