Mel Brooks

The Queen (that's the Queen, not Elton John, the queen)
Maggie Smith
At least one other rock star: guess at Rod Stewart, Eminem, Bono, Sting, Brian Wilson, Ozzy Osbourne.
Kirk Douglas

Not morbid at all. In fact, I reckon this should be included in the Betting Thread. C'mon Nick! Sort some odds out! :emoji_smile:

Kirk Douglas gotta be odds-on favourite! At 102, he's already well past his sell by date!

I thought Gorbachev died years ago. That surprises me. As for the Stones Charlie and Keith look dead. It’s amazing all 4 are still alive given the life they’ve led.

I thought he had died years ago and I had to check that he hadn’t

Billy Connolly

Read a fair bit on him recently. It’s horrible to see anyone going through what he is but even worse when it’s happening to a character like him. Says he feels like he’s slipping away.

Still alive I think. Saw a very moving show over Christmas with him being interviewed by Bob Monkhouse (just before he died) with MY talking about his fall from stardom. Seemed like a really nice bloke. Sure he was in a panto in Cov when I was a kid.

Yep. He's still alive. Aged 77. He was a massive draw on the telly years ago, especially his Christmas Specials, but I think there were so many new impressionists coming through in the 80's and 90's that he just wasn't used by the TV companies any more. Very sad to see someone of his amazing talent end up like this.
