It's a shame that a lot of posters are saying who they would like to die, rather than who they think will die.

Not liking somebody is ok, but wishing them dead is a bit crass.

Anyway I am sticking with Norman.
I mentioned this in the 2016 thread - and I got yelled at. I don't mind the idea of a guessing game. But I don't like the "wishing game" that this annual thread usually becomes.

And Buzz is doing OK by the way -

That's cheering news.

Sort it out and bar the OP.

Big difference between speculating on who may not see out the next year - tasteless yes, but nothing worse than that - with those who actively hope for someone's death.

I do not wish him injury - I do not wish anyone injury, not ever - but I cannot disagree that the world would be improved by Mugabe's passing. That's gotta come under fair comment, surely?

Is that a Christmas tee shirt that woman is wearing?
It reads "Get your ass to Mars"

So, no.
Don't get it?

Are you sure it's not an Xmas thing?

From the words I could make out, I assumed it was a reference to someone taking an ass, or donkey, to a stable? No? I have got it all wrong again, have I?

Is there a thread running for the first celeb Death of 2017? It's December now so why not start one.

2016 been some year with a few unexpected celeb deaths.

My guess for the first of 2017 has to be....

Bruce Forsyth.
Still Plenty of 2016 left to go yet....

Not sure why but seeing that made me think Nicholas Parsons, think he was 90 this year.

Also Brian Matthew hasn't been on his Saturday Radio 2'show for 2 or 3 weeks & he's in his late 70's I think.

In the words of Keith Moon: if you don't like it, you can fk off.

No-one forces you to read this forum and you can see what this thread is about from its title. Tough.

I nominate Dick van Dyke not that I would want him to.

If it was wishful thinking then it would be Simon Cowell and he can take his s*tty tv shows with him!
