Gods of Snooker BBC 2
I bloody hated snooker when I was a kid. Up until the age of 10 we had one television set in our house and every weekend my dad would watch the most inane, boring shit on Grandstand.
Despite this i really enjoyed this three part documentary about a sport i have no interest in mainly thanks to Alex Hurricane Higgins. I always side with the anti establishment types and Higgins was certainly that.
It's also a good snapshot of the 1980s Britain that I grew up in.
