“Westenders” vs “Eastenders”

 Note the following in regards to a notable person recently added to Wikipedia’s Deaths in 2026 site:

• Dale West (1941 – May 19, 2026) Canadian football player (Saskatchewan Roughriders).
• George Eastman (16 August 1942 – 19 May 2026)  actor (Antropophagus, Rabid Dogs), screenwriter (Keoma)
• Michael Frank Keating (10 February 1947 – 21 May 2026)actor (Blake's 7, EastEnders, Doctor Who).^[3] (death announced on this date)

Note “Eastman” , “West”, and “Eastenders”.  Three more additions to the recent “Cardinal Directions Theme” pattern cluster. Not to mention those found in my previous post.  Hmmm, note that the surname Keating and the word east, are additions to the “Word in Name” pattern cluster (where Keating provides us with “eat”) and  the “Remove a Letter in Name Makes a Word” pattern cluster (where east provides us with “eat”)
