I was in town today and they were having some sort of snooker match in the Winter Gardens. I didn't get to see any of it because there were spectators in the way but they all seemed to be having fun.

Hang on, maybe they score points for not potting the balls?

On Sunday they're showing the 1982 Snooker final on BBC2.

Oh, hang on, "Hazel Irvine takes another trip down memory lane as she relives the 1982 world final between Ray Reardon and Alex Higgins."
I thought they'd just show the whole thing, unedited, this is going to be a story of a BBC presenters personal development isn't it?

I haven't watched any of this so far but I read that John (Where's the white going) is stuck in Spain or somewhere. I actually saw him do an exhibition match at Fanchester Billiards and Snooker club back in 1980 whatever. He was very funny.

I thought he was dead.
I think I was mixing him up with Willie Thorne.

For the record, it's "where's the cue ball going, where's the cue ball going!?"

This Trump-Robertson final is absurdly close.

I hear Trump will refuse to admit he's lost.
