Michael Douglas (joker)
Muhammed Ali
Michael J Fox
Betty White
Duke of Edinburgh.

Though I have to say whilst trawling google and looking at similar thread on many forums doing this lovely competition, one forum had a long list of rules (I like our 2) and one of them is this

8. Any poster who kills or otherwise contributes to the death of any celebrity mentioned in this thread is disqualified. It's just a game, people. The only exceptions to this rule would be deaths caused by those posters serving as members of the police or armed forces of any country, in the line of duty.

Wow thats quite scary that you need to put that one in there

haggis88

1. Ronnie Biggs (Joker)
2. Nelson Mandela
3. George Bush Sr
4. Anna Wing
5. Mickey Rooney

i can't quite remember, if someone does kick the bucket, do you pick a new person to replace them?

There's a reason we haven't seen 'Beadle About' for a while.

Yeah, it's a bit goal hangy.

Player in game of speculation about death behaves tastelessly, shock, horror!

DaveLovesDee

In that case, can I take Margaret Thatcher then please?

rwin

That's okay. I don't follow hockey anyway. In fact I was enjoying the lockout.

But if I understand you, I'd be better of to pick a high school drama student from Whitby than Lanny Mcdonald?

cheeky_monkey

Dick Van Dyke
Paul Gascoigne
Dickie Davies (world of sport)
Hulk Hogan
June Brown (Dot Cotton) of that there Eastenders

dbd33

Has Lanny McDonald done anything other than play ice hockey a long time ago? If not I don't think he'd qualify as "famous" and, anyway, he can't be worth a lot of points now. A random drama student is a bit of gamble, can you count on picking one who'll go postal?

rwin

I'm sure his fame is long past the best before date but if you see him downtown, people still stop to talk to him. I just thought that if it has to make the BBC news, the random student may be a better gamble.

Jingsamichty

Sir Alex Ferguson
Kerry Katona
Prince Harry (J)
Simon Cowell
John Major

Alan2005

You could have James Holmes in your list. You never know with these crazies and he'd be worth a lot of points.

JonboyE

I am playing to win this year.

Greenhill

For speculators with no moral compass, I figure there's about 169 points riding on Catherine the Skinny
