Not really into sport (actually not into sport at all!), but if you lived in the UK in the 70's or 80's you couldn't fail to know who this guy was; he presented "World Of Sport" every Saturday for over 2 decades. Once the cartoons went off air at lunchtime his face would appear and the tv would then be turned off for five or six hours (in our house), as there was nothing else on then (we only had 3 channels then).

Ah that's sad. We often used to be around at my grandad's on a Saturday afternoon when this was on. They did the pools but it did have some highlights for me & my sister when the wrestling came on. Big Daddy and Giant Haystacks, almost as good as the cartoons.

Easy. Easy. Easy!

I actually watched a live match with Big Daddy when I was a nipper. It was good fun
