Another sub-forum perhaps? Corpse Corner?
PistonBodies?

Well, maybe it was badly worded and open to misinterpretation.

Of course I could chose not to read this thread - but I actually would like to read and contribute to the thread as it is the "semi-official" obituary thread on PH. On that basis, it could be informative and interesting.

On the other hand, it also a bit of a magnet for those who want to post distasteful comments from those who would like to wish death upon people they don't happen to like - which I think is pretty uncalled for and rather demeaning.
Even so, can we please make a specific exception for that really nice Mr Blair who seems to feel that we need him......

US Emmy award-winning actress Mary Tyler Moore has died aged 80, her publicist says.
Fantastic actress and an early crush from my youth. Many hours spent watching the MTM show.
Me too. I really fancied her when I was 8.

Fair comment, I hadn't even realised that he was still around - not doing badly for 88.

FWIW I'd remove the entire daytime team from after Chris Evans (he's only acceptable due to his charity work) until Simon Mayo. So last century....
Don't wish people dead. Some Guardianista will pop along call you all sorts of 'phobic, a Brexiteer, a racist and a bigot.
I wasn't wishing anybody dead confused I merely stated that i would prefer it if someone at BBC could find alternate employment for Messers. Bruce, Vine, and Wright. I cannot listen to Radio2 in the daytime....

An odd comment to make in a thread about people dying. Surprised you're confused.

I couldn't agree more. You'd have thought I'd be a typical classic R2 listener but I can't bear Bruce, Vine or Wright so until they go I'm listening elsewhere.

Tam Dalyell, aged 84, former Labour MP has died.

Best known for "The West Lothian Question".
He will also be remembered for his hounding of Thatcher over the Belgrano sinking during the Falklands War.

Very good!

I realised after I had posted that someone has already reported Tam's death!

Ah! The Belgrano! That caused me to do lots of shouting at the radio and TV.
