I watched the last few frames Gasman, and he played brilliantly, some of the best snooker I've ever seen....Absolute precision.

More interesting than Steve?

My favourite has always been Jimmy White. Always a bit scary to watch.

Re: UK Snooker Championships

Yes, Although i'm not interested (generally) in 'sport', I do enjoy watching snooker and the t.v. coverage of this most recent event was first class, especially watching on the 'red button' rather than the highlights of the match very late in the evening.
I also noticed that there wasn't any commentating from John Virgo, (thankfully). Has he retired, or does he only do certain events?

I used to love watching snooker, especially those 3 - and Cliff Thornburn was rather hot

Can't remember when I last watched it ... lost it's appeal for me after Higgy's demise

I know what you mean Pesta, there were some great personalities in the days of 'Pot Black'.....They taught me everything I know about snooker.....And I could write it on the back of a matchbox.....
