RIP John Virgo
Snooker legend and BBC commentator John Virgo has died aged 79.

Virgo enjoyed an 18-year professional career, winning the 1979 UK Championship among four non-ranking titles.

He is perhaps best known for his post-playing career, co-presenting snooker TV programme Big Break from 1991 to 2002.

Following his retirement in 1994, Virgo took up a full-time commentary position with the BBC.

He was part of its coverage for last month's Masters.

RIP John

Re: RIP John Virgo
I met him briefly at Pontins. He was a good laugh.

Re: RIP John Virgo
From when sports stars and TV presenters actually had personality and character.
