People you thought were dead but are still alive

I saw Su Pollard on the underground last week. And by underground I don't mean hades, where she and I belong.

Lazarus - he had a return ticket. He no doubt pissed off a lot of people when it came to the reading of his will.

Mick Hucknall

 

[Chicken Run]

Jim Lovell

 

[Madafwo]

Billy Sharp.

Can't be bothered to check if this joke was made in the last 12 years.

 

[Flounce]

Tommy Steele

Georgie Fame

Feargal Sharkey … just before he made a name for himself on water pollution, I confused him with another Ulster pop star & said to a friend a shame FS is no longer with us.

So glad to be wrong.

Frankie Valli - still going at 92

Found out the other month that Tom Lehrer is still with us - at 97. It's a pity he's not still writing songs, what material he'd have to work with

I was watching an old episode of The Sweeney yesterday, with Julian Glover as a shady lawyer. I looked him up and found out that he's still alive (I also found out that his brother's Robert Wyatt, I certainly never knew that).
