The story makes clear that he died on 30 December. Uh oh!

Maryport is a disappointment for which there is no cure, but the annual Deathrace thread hereabouts provides welcome distraction.

Derby Dead Pool showrunner...


"We're today's scrambled creatures, locked in tomorrow's double feature
Heaven's on the pillow, its silence competes with hell
It's a twenty-four hour service, guaranteed to make you tell
And the streets are full of press men
Bent on getting hung and buried
And the legendary curtains are drawn 'round Baby Bankrupt
Who sucks you while you're sleeping
It's the theatre of financiers
Count them, fifty 'round a table
White and dressed to kill."

David Bowie - We Are The Dead (1974)

That's unlucky. One dead pool I'm in closes on Jan 5th as it always takes a few days for deaths at the end of the year to hit the press.

So sad to hear of Ronald Searle's death. Extraordinary life & work. His last illustration was for a friend, Roger Lewis who is v ill too :(

This is true my form is something odd,

Could I create myself anew
I would not fail in pleasing you.

I think Stephen Fry might be the only person still living who uses the term poorly to actually mean "a little bit unwell" rather than as a euphemism for "this cunt is gonna be ghost in two weeks". Weird how all Daily Mail "humour" writers use exactly the same editorial voice.
