AND remember that you won't see anyone's signature on any GRO certificate.

Beg to differ, I've got one :) 
Death in 1969, copy cert bought from GRO in 2010.  My husband was the informant and his signature is clearly there.  His writing was quite distinctive and nothing like the registrar's.  It can happen.
