Fergie, (the one who was married to beast Andrew) has malignant cancer

How rude of her cancer to wait until after our dead pool entries were due before making its appearance 

Yer missing nothing, mate.

around 90 out of every 100 people (around 90%) will survive their melanoma for 5 years or more after diagnosis. more than 85 out of every 100 people (more than 85%) will survive their melanoma for 10 years or more after they are diagnosed.

I’m glad they spelled out those percentages for some of the utter thickos on the forum.

Norman Jewison, film director. https://www.theguardian.com/film/2024/jan/22/norman-jewison-dead-director-moonstruck

He'll be looking forward to being 'In The Heat of The Cremator'.

ETA - 'In The Heat Of The Night' is currently available on BBC iPlayer. I suspect most folk have seen it but for those who haven't, you've got 6 days to catch a classic Oscar winning film. Steiger and Poitier on top form.

Brilliant film.  The two sequels were not do good.  There was also a TV series.

Lee Grant must be about 100 now.

Joint discoverer of cosmic background radiation and Nobel prizewinner, Arno Allan Penzias.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arno_Allan_Penzias

“Although Penzias and Wilson had not been looking for cosmic background radiation, didn’t know what it was when they had found it, and hadn’t described or interpreted its character in any paper, they received the 1978 Nobel Prize in physics. The Princeton researchers got only sympathy. According to Dennis Overbye in Lonely Hearts of the Cosmos, neither Penzias nor Wilson altogether understood the significance of what they had found until they read about it in the New York Times.”

― Bill Bryson, A Short History of Nearly Everything
