Dead Pool [382]

Posted on by


Congratulations to Norman for predicting the sad passing of Patsy King who died on January 19th 2026.

She was an Australian actress and TV presenter best known for her portrayal of Erica Davidson in the cult classic and long running TV series, Prisoner: Cell Block H. She passed away in Melbourne following a short illness having reached an impressive 95 years of age.

On to Dead Pool 382.

These are the rules:

1) Pick up to 5 famous cunts you think will conk out next. It is first come first served and no duplicates are allowed. You can always be a cunt and steal someone else’s picks from the previous pool.

2) Anyone who nominates the world’s oldest man or woman is a cunt and will be ignored.

3) It must be a famous cunt we have heard of.

4) No swapping picks mid pool unless your picks have already been taken.

5) Hits are awarded based on chronology of death reporting not necessarily in chronological order of death.

Over to you, cunters.

  10. Cnuters: A referral has been made to the ISAC stewards to check the validity of Norms win. King died before the relevant DP was opened and the news of her passing seems to have already been in the public domain.
    Sorry Norm if it turns out I’ve peed on your celebrations but you can’t win on the premise that someone is next to die when they’re already dead and that death is known about.

      Forgot to include the evidence.
      M’lud will note that DP381 opened on 23/01/26 whereas the news report of Kings death is dated 21/01/26. It’s a clear cut miscarriage of justice.
      The Judge will be needing his black cap when meting out punishment to the ISAC staffer responsible for this outrage.

      Yep, point taken. I saw a comment on the Nominations page about the passing of Patsy King. I don’t normally do the Dead Pools, so I figured we’d missed it and wrote it up. But as you say, she passed away before the last DP started, so technically it’s not a valid win for Norman. Sorry Norman. What to do? Scrap this DP and revert to the previous one or put this down as a balls up and let the cunters go forward with their DP 382 nominations? If anyone has a strong opinion either way, post a comment here and I’ll make a final decision a bit later – when I’ve finished my day job for the day – NA.

      • NA, may I refer you to DP228 when you also cocked up (not that I hold a grudge you understand). You obviously didn’t give yourself a big enough kicking then. Can we have a go this time instead😁?
        For what it’s worth my opinion is simply scrub DP382 completely from the records as DP381 hasn’t been won yet so just let that one run until we have a winner.

      • I had Tony Blair in the last DP.

        It’s personal to me and some scoundrel will nick him. Just as he throws a seven.

        Come on Shaun. Pick Tony Blair!

  11. 😵William Shatner,
    😵Billy Connolly,
    😵Mel Brooks,
    😵Bob Newhart,
    & 😵Cliff Fucking Richard, The Antichrist.
    180, Norman 🎯.

    Bob Newhart died in 2024. Sadly. A very funny man – NA.

    • Not that it may affect anything given that this DP could be invalid anyway but for future reference Newhart died 18/07/24.

  18. I’ve had near misses. with my noms for the pool before.
    The site was down when that old cunt Malcolm Glazer snuffed it when I had him in my list..

    And, Frank O’ Farrell copped it when I was away when my kidneys failed, after I’d been nominating him for years😉

    I’ll go with whatever Admin wants to do. No problem.
