A sad loss indeed, and let's not forget he was the first chairman of A Question of Sport

Is it any wonder that the monkey's confused?

Will always remember him for walking out on the late night C4 show Under the Moon when Danny Kelly opened the interview with. "So David, let's face it, snooker has gone rubbish since the players have stopped taking mountains of cocaine."
Nice jumpers though.

The face of snooker? More like the face of BBC Sport. Another part of my life gone- rest in peace, David.

He used to present snooker in the days when the bbc treated their audience like adults,he was a great presenter. Watching the snooker on the beeb these days its like a 5yr olds beginners guide,completely dumbed down.
