    DeathList is a carefully selected list of 50 celebrities chosen by the DL Committee each calendar year for their likelihood to die during that year.


    In 2019 13/51 on the Deathlist were struck off

    Kirk Douglas is still beasting it though going into his 18th year on the list

        For instance, their Clive James death headline:

        "Clive no longer alive"

        I actually didn't like that and I wished bad karma back upon them the instance I read it. Clive was cooooool A.F.

          Isn't there a site that's been counting down Artie Lange for over a decade? It was a joke but pretty sick, never seen it.

            I simultaneously hate and love it, it appeals to a very small, dark part of me that I'm kinda ashamed of but I just can't help it. I'm already speculating who's gonna die this year and I don't like it but I *am*!!!

            (outside bet: R****** W*****, btw)

            Love how they got Shane McGowan on there, lol, he's only bloody 62 and has new teeth!!!

              I thought that might be Robot Wan@3r, surely not Peter Weller? Oh is it a Wagner? Yeah this is all grim and nothing can finish Charlie Sheen.

                You know what, me old pal? It's been a heavy Christmas and I have suffered a bout of 'heavy consumption'. In all honesty, I've forgotten who I meant, tbh.

                I'm actually having fun trying to work out who it is!

                  Oh, I got it now.

                  *ich*rd *il*on.

                  Dont know why. He's had 'one foot in the grave'* since around 1990, for goodness' sake!

                    Neil Peart.

                    The musician, considered one of rock's greatest ever drummers, had brain cancer.


                    Gutted, emotions switched off for today. My favourite band and the greatest drummer to ever breathe. Lovely, lovely man, wrote beautiful lyrics and so eloquent in interviews.
                    Voted best drummer for countless consecutive years and youngest to ever go into the drummers hall of fame.

                    Far too early, RIP Professor.

                        Derek Fowlds, the guy who had his hand up Basil Brush's back passage in the 70s, passed on the other day. He was best known as one of the coppers in Heartbeat, you'd know his face straight away, he's been on telly yeeeears.

                            Monty Python’s Terry Jones died last night at the age of 77. I didn’t know he even had a form of dementia, such a shame

                              Yep RIP Terry, Python is my favourite comedy show and Brian is the best comedy film ever made.

                              The life of the actor, writer and director who found fame as a member of the Monty Python team.


                              Been a bad week or so with Peart going and now Jones.
