According to Wikipedia, Judge Oliver Popplewell died on 6th June. No obituaries yet. I'll update when I see them. 15 more points for the Groob.

Actor Donald Sutherland dies aged 88
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c9rrvdq3g9zo
His son, Keifer, announced his father's death in a statement.
"With a heavy heart, I tell you that my father, Donald Sutherland, has passed away. I personally think one of the most important actors in the history of film," he said. "Never daunted by a role, good, bad or ugly. He loved what he did and did what he loved, and one can never ask for more than that. A life well lived."

Donald Sutherland was picked this year by MMF, and on only one other occasion - in 2007 by Kyra.

MMF overtakes Coelacanth and others, moving into fifth place.

Shannen Doherty died on the thirteenth, so there's a 5-point bonus for Bluebottle, Galaxy Babe and myself (Rule 6).

Bluebottle extends his lead at the top of the scoreboard. I'm finally off the mark.
