So, the last quizzes of May 2014 are done and dusted, so here’s the full list of Dr Paul’s Million Pound Dead Pool predictions for the coming month of June.
The number shown is the number of people who have chose that celebrity to die.
Possible Outcomes:
- One celebrity dies – A draw is performed between those who backed that celebrity and prize of 10 x £100k scratchcards goes to that player
- More than one celebrity dies – As above but to backers of celebrity deemed MOST FAMOUS. In the first place this will be done by entering names into Google Trends, which gives a 10-year average of searches for that person. I’ve tried a few comparisons and it seems to consistently deliver good results. For example: See comparison of Sean Connery and Paul McCartney
- No one dies – It’s a rollover and the July prize goes up to £2 million!

By the way, if you chose more than one dead celebrity then that doesn’t work. It’s one guess per email per month, so I chose one of your guesses for you which was the first one I came to. Thanks!
