You mean you thought he had recorded it so he could watch it when he got back in from the pub? lol
Alex is a snooker genius but there are still some more, Ronnie is also a genius and young Luca from Belgium is amazing!
It's a sporting legends edition. Other people I've heard due to be on it include Henry Cooper, Geoff Hurst, but sorry I can't remember the rest of the list.
Knowing Higgins' he'll probably win it. I'm not sure of transmission date but a good guess would be the Whitsun weekend holiday at end of May
It's true there are no characters in today's game. How many of today's 'stars' would make it on to a British institution like 'The Weakest Link'? The BBC only want well known sporting icons, and Alex Higgins is the most well known snooker player ever.
i think more people would know steve davis than alex higgins
steve was about only a few years after higgins and is till about and on many tv programs, so i think, sorry know you are wrong, steve is much more well known than alex higgins.
That's really clever. What you've done is use the catchphrase from the host of 'The Weakest Link', Anne Robinson, as a retort to the previous comment because, I'm guessing, you don't like it. The humour in this case is that the story is about 'The Weakest Link'!
What you've done is so skilful. I'm surprised no-one has used this before. I suspect now you've opened the stable door so to speak, everyone will now be copying you as we all use Ms. Robinson's catchphrase in everyday use. Thank you so much!
Anon 5:02pm if you read my post it was answering the post made at 11:34pm, who said "The BBC only want well known sporting icons, and Alex Higgins is the most well known snooker player ever" as anon says at 11:24am Steve Davis is more known than Alex Higgins, anyway keep taking you're happy pills and 1 day you might crack a smile.
Wild "if you mention snooker to many people that dont know the sport the first name they come out with is Hurricane Higgins.." and you know this because??????????
try it out....go out on the street ask someone to name you a snooker player if they know the sport they would name current players if they dont they will name you Hurricane Higgins,Steve Davis and wasent there someone called white.
Wild "i know it because i know it...." lmfao on about me on mars where you been living Jupiter, you know it because Higgins won 1 ranking title YES 1, Higgins is known for being a pi$$ head.
maybe ALex Higgins is more well known in your living room, but in snooker he is not more well known than steve davis and outwith snooker Davis is much more well known.
Still, WJE is allowed his opinion, even if less than 5% of people think he is even close to correct.
They should have him playing this World Series event in Ireland. That will get the punters back watching snooker again.
ReplyDeleteAny transmission date?
ReplyDeletei disagree with anon, totally.
ReplyDeleteyes Jamie there is a transmission date
So Alex Higgins will be on the Weakest Link?
ReplyDeleteWhat it says on the tin Chris
ReplyDeleteWhat I was thinking was that Dave said Alex has recorded an edition of the Weakest Link, I wasn't so sure if he would actually be on it.
ReplyDeleteIs it a "Washed Up Sportspeople Edition"? If so I wonder who else is on it.
ReplyDeleteHiggins is a genius at snooker. They don't have players like him any more in the game. Shame really. There's just no characters about.
ReplyDeletelast post is a load of rubbish IMO

I hope he lasts a few rounds. I can't wait to see who he votes for and his reasons for doing so!
ReplyDeleteJanie
ReplyDeleteHenry Cooper might vote him off ...
you have to be brave to do so thats for sure haha
cant see Alex taking it in the spirit of the game more like the spirit of vodka after the game lol
i dont think you have to be brave at all
ReplyDeleteI can tell you wild Frank Bruno wins it.
ReplyDeleteCome on Jimmy, ref looks a bit tasty

ReplyDeleteAlex Higgins and Steve Davis is as well known as each other by different people.....they were the christ and the anti christ of snooker
