    what happens if he's still alive and he pops up next week? can he still be charged with murder even though he's officially dead?

    An old boss of mine, Rodney Galpin, was a dead ringer for Lucan. He once got spotted by an eagle-eyed BBC viewer in the crowd at Wimbledon and got arrested! This is the only photo of him I could find, when he was quite old - but you still get the likeness.

    You are all wrong, Katrien was trying to sign him last month as an interim coach.

    Had a good innings. Would've been 82 this December. Sad.

    I would suggest the resemblance is passing! I think that eagle-eyed viewer should have gone to Specsavers!

    I can't believe the nice comments about Lucan. He was a murderer, treated his Wife appallingly, gambler and a coward.

    Was it Lucan who signed Polish Pete?

    Think so (though when he died may yet be premature, it's his son seeking to have him declared dead), as far as I am aware, it's a hereditary peerage.

    He was a significant landowner on the west coast of Ireland, and I seem to remember being told that tenants would not pay the rent to any agent not actually appointed by him (the story I had heard that it went on for years).

    Apparently its been done so that the son can inherit the title.

    Bit silly if you ask me as he'll apply for something with someone asking his name, when he replies: I'm Lord Lucan they'll go mental

    probably dead now, thus the issueing of his death certificate so his son can inherit his title etc...
