The two fat ladies were already both dead. Kim's "other half" (Aggie) is still alive.

I thought Rosemary Shrager was one of the 2 Fat Ladies. Well she is a chef at least.Ian Volante wrote: ↑Wed Jun 18, 2025 12:24 pmClearly occupying the same space in my brain.Gavin Chipper wrote: ↑Tue Jun 17, 2025 4:16 pmThe two fat ladies were already both dead.

Liverpool forward, Diogo Jota, and his brother Andre Silva, dead after a car crash in Spain. Jota was 28. Absolutely terrible. RIP

As tempting as it is to question driving a Lambo down a rural road at speed this can happen to anyone.

I don't think this has been mentioned anywhere but Richard Whiteley's partner and DC guest Kathryn Apanowicz died earlier this year.

Fauja Singh. He ran marathons, supposedly over the age of 100, and supposedly being 114 when he died. He didn't even die of "old age". He was hit by a car while walking. I don't think most people think he was legit though. He was older than the verified oldest living man, who is 112 and he was just wandering around. Most oldest living people are just sitting around in a home. Elliott, presumably you agree on this one?
