Michael J Douglas has just announced that his father Kirk Douglas is on his final days, 2016 has not done with us yet.

 

[Dayvo]

Any predictions on who will follow before the year's end?

DT for example.

I cannae see Tony Hart in the picture, does he not die every year according to social media?

Wow - that really brings home just what a year of demises this has been. Surely it's not like this every year? (Love the Ronnie Corbett looking up at David Bowie, BTW!)

 

[Hill Wimp]

Where is Vernon ?

 

[ufkacbln]

About 50 - so another 1966 to go

Of course it is.

Think about it - how many famous people do you know, in the sense of names you would recognise if it was announced that they had died?

I'd hazard a guess that for most people it would run into thousands, none of whom are immortal.

So in any given year, a whole bunch of them are going to die. That's life.

I'm trying to place the guy front centre with the tache and the skull & crossbones hat. At first I thought it was Lemmy, but he died in 2015 so it can't be him.

It was nearly 2016 though.

The next tonight will be tomorrow night ......
Alas no more, will always remember the catch phrase and Cliff Michelmore

Sixteen.

Liberalism and racial tolerance.....I can't see that in the picture. It died on 23 June 2016. (I know Jo Cox and Brexit are there......though)

Things have started taking a different direction since Brexit result day. Then there was Trump, and so on....
