I briefly considered him, but thought he was only famous for being married to a day time tv presenter. Hence ineligible.

I should have done my homework - what a tool. 

Similarly, I was unaware of his political career. Assumed he was just the partner of a famous person, and would not be a "celebrity" in his own right other than through his illness, which would have ruled him ineligible.

Nonetheless, RIP, etc.

I didn't have him in my squad. I genuinely thought his illness was over hyped. Got that one wrong.

He told he was ill. Copyright, Spike Milligan.

It was asked on the 2023 thread (and I think it came up when his illness was first announced as well) and I think the reaponse was that he was an eligible candidate since he had had a notable career before marriage and would likely get a qualifying obituary which mentioned his previous work.

In the pilot episode of Starsky and Hutch, David Soul famously jumped on to the top of a car and landed sitting down.

It resulted in chronic back pain for the next thirty years.

Definitely not a good idea.

Not only that he was forced to relive it in the opening credits every time (43 seconds in)...

RIP Hutch, long forgotten now but the show was an absolutely massive phenomenon for a couple of years.

Have also missed an open goal here by leaving him out. Fairly confident I'll have a lot of solo shot or deadly duo picks though so I'll be needing a few of them to check out if I want any chance of doing well 🤞

Just checked now that the list of picks has been posted. 4 Solo Shots in my team, 3 of them below 50 years old. Potential for a lot of points here.

Phil Collins being born in '72 has come as a shock, the original Luke Littler. In other news, Oh Captain!My Captain!
