1. Barry Scott

2. Mrs Browns boys (all of them please)

3. Mick Jagger

    Well, I was going to go with the same as the last few years but they keep on letting me down. So I'm going to mix it up a little
    1. Murray Walker
    2. Donald Trump (we can but hope}
    3. Phil the Greek

    Tragedy pick. Keith Richards (How is he still alive?)

    If Morgan Freeman dies it will be my fault for taking him off my list.

    Hmmmm... so many possibilities. Keeping one of the surviving picks from last year. One cranky old git, and one of the ex-Presidents of the USA. They’ve got a few piling up, about time they started dropping off the Secret Service maintenance list.

    1: Willie Nelson
    2: Clint Eastwood
    3: Jimmy Carter

    Tragedy pick: Valentino Rossi.

    Donald Trump
    Boris Johnson
    Piers Morgan

    More of a wish list than a prediction.

    Tragedy pick
    Ozzy Osbourne. He really shouldn't be alive after all the drink and drugs.

    Not wrong there.
    Dan Gurney died, old american racing driver. Racing in the 60s your life expectancy was pretty low so he did well.

    Tinky Winky is a goner, or the actor that romped around in the suit at any rate. Only 52, that's about the same age as bg or Stevo. :shock:

    Neither am I, for a few weeks.

    The NHS seems to know a lot - my GP already knows that I'm a one armed bandit, so maybe they know all about you as well? :P

    Can I just clarify, that you're not actually allowed to kill them yourself to win the competition?

    1. Prince Philip
    2. Bernie Ecclestone
    3. Donald Trump

    Tragedy: Attenborough.

    Not really a celeb but the founder of Ikea has popped his clogs. Pinched this from Nicklouse's Facebook feed.

    Trevor Bayliss, inventor of the wind up radio and local crackpot is no more. Riding along the Thames Path as you pass Eel Pie Island you can tell which is his house as there is an old car in the garden. On an island, with no access by road.

    David Ogden Stiers aka Maj Charles Emerson Winchester III from M*A*S*H is another name that nobody had on their list.
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.
