She 89. I looked it up yesterday when I thought she was Pauline fron EE (and already dead).

We have 77 nominations for the May Bonus round which, as it was short notice and the thread is quiet these days (for reasons that don't need explaining), isn't too bad.
Shannen Doherty and Sven Goran Eriksson have the most nominations (4).
I'll put the full list on the Wiki page shortly.
Quick thanks to everyone taking part and I appreciate how polite you've all been.
It's nice to be nice, even if we're discussing celebrity deaths!

Tut tut, you're supposed to say 'Never heard of her'
. Something made me think of her a few days ago and then I recalled her having suffered from serious health issues in recent years, along with, I think, past alcohol and drug addiction. More potential points up for grabs than picking a definitely ill oldie!
Cheers for the bonus round Lance 
Famous deaths on this day (12/05) in history
2001 Perry Como, singer
2004 H. R. Giger, artist & special effects designer
2018 Dennis Nilsen, dog lover and serial killer
(and a whole bunch of people I've not heard of)

I think you're right that she had some health issues previously and, yeah, it's a risk but the points are better when you go for someone younger.
Which, don't get me wrong, I realise is an awful thing but we aren't being malicious!
It's just a game, a bit of fun, shining light on the darkness. If you can't laugh at death what can you laugh at?

This will put the cat amongst the pigeons
Does this mean celebrity cats are allowed on lists now?
No.
No celebrity -or non celebrity- animals will be allowed on the Death Pool list.
I’m going to hazard a guess that nobody had Supergran, Gudrun Ure.
RIP Supergran.

I thought someone had mentioned her for either last year or this year, but nope.
