This has come up in another thread but anyone 40 plus or who likes snooker needs to watch this 3 part series about snooker in the 80s.

Proper nostalgia trip to a time when it was a UK obsession. Alex Higgins brought it to the mainstream and Barry Hearn, on the back of managing Steve Davis, took it to the next level.

Steve Davis laid the foundations for what Barry Hearn's empire is today - wonder if he gets commission ??

My interest like many, and it's mentioned in the programme, did dwindle post 1990 (always watched the worlds though and massively supported Jimmy)

It's come back a bit in recent years but once Ronnie has retired I do wonder if I'll bother at all.

We need another flawed genius bad boy !
