Being the Chesney Hawkes with the perfect hat trick since its inception, I'll go first, and none of you deadbeats can copy the Champ's predictions

1 - Bobby Charlton 

2 - Boy George

3 - Eileen Derbyshire

 

As a bonus ball, I'll say all remaining players from the World Cup winning team of 66 will go too.

Oh I agree, and as I say it's tragic. Reading more, she has suffered from an early age; starting from an insensitive, but childish innocuous comment. 

Believe it or not, I don't mean to come across as crass (or frankly a twat), but she always struck me as being desperate for fame, it maybe just to be loved... Folk screaming her name will patch that scar up; but it can be easily ripped away. 

To me, it seemed she craved something... It was dangled, then at some point taken away. 

I just question whether anything 'reality' does enough research into their contestants, and if they went really get the support they need? 

Doesn't matter what any of us think about the way she lived her life. The illness killed her.

So just ignoring the bit about her getting the support she so genuinely needed? Or that she was selected to be thrust into the limelight, despite her illness, or without her illness being properly evaluated? 

The 'millions of fans' she entertained, being asked to pay for her private medical bills... Do you not think the production company should have made a contribution? 

Tragically she has made celebrity deadpool. To me, those who made her a celebrity are partially responsible for her wellbeing? 

I couldnt give a Fuck how she lived her life; its tragic that she had succumbed to such a horrible illness. I feel she has been let down by those who made entertainment (and fucking millions) out of her. 

Don't turn this into another Cheese Almighty rant. The illness killed her, perhaps some folk could've done more to help rather than just using her

I don't disagree with any of that. I think you've misunderstood me. You're right, I probably shouldn't have posted about her death here. I feel a bit ashamed to be honest.

At the same time though - I don't think those who made here famous are "partially responsible for her death". That's a bit like saying the people who made Jade Goody famous are partially responsible for Jade Goody's death. Both would probably have succumbed to their illnesses whether they were famous or not. But yes, the vultures got their piece of meat as they always do. Anyway, let's leave it there.

How is Cheese wrong in what he has said? He summed it up perfectly and has no reason to apologise. People need to take responsibility for their actions.

I'm not saying its that easy but by the looks of it she suffered for years.

Help is out there for people that need it but you've got to help yourself first.

Fair dos, one thing I would add though is that one had an illness prior to going in, one didn't. 

I just have issues with reality shows in general; let's point and laugh at folk, or look how shitty their lives are... Worst kind of entertainment

Useless factoid, one of Georgio Moroder's earliest UK hits was Son Of My Father by Chicory Tip in 1972

And

I Feel Love was the first ever "electronic" number one

Arsed!

I think I had nominated her.

In the interests of neutrality think I had a Tory and a Labour as well.

Georgio Morodor was in Kraftwerk, fact.

Lots of Germans have Italian names.

Mille Petrozza of Kreator or the footballer Maurizo Gaudino for example.

bit late to this but gonk(?) is right georgio moroder was never owt to do with kraftwerk, members of Neu or Can maybe related to Kraftwerk. but not georgio moroder. 

georgio moroder was more harold faltermeyer's (axel foleys theme) bandmate (other way round , really).. 

but just wanted to say the 'chase' is fucking class

 

Evidence suggests otherwise.

This is Georgio's latest 12" cover...

maybe i'm out of the loop. but that seems very this-

Thought it was Noel Edmonds at first glance

Joszef Fritzel?

It's former Kraftwerk man Georgio.

The 2nd one, Kurt Cobain's favourite film was Tommy Boy. It was playing on his home cinema (in his greenhouse) when they found him.

Love that. That was my favourite film for a long time. I’ve never tried to import drugs since that was released

I heard Neil off The Young Ones.

clancy brown was in the goldbergs once or twice which david spade was in once , who was in senseless by penelope speeris who also directed The Decline of Western Civilization which Flea from the RHCP was in (the third part) who apparantly met kurt cobain at least once. 

probably fails six degrees of seperation , but its the best i can do in half an hour.
