Ted Lowe dies

[GT-Steve]

Any Snooker fans over the last 25 years will know him as the 'voice'

Was watching the Worlds final today when they announced it:

RIP.

I wish the present commentators were half as good as the voice was. Then more people would watch it

Much prefer playing snooker to watching it, but sad news all the same and even to someone like me who doesn't really follow it, Lowe was indeed "Mr. Snooker" with an instantly recognisable voice.

As for the current crop of commentators, I think we all secretly know who should really be doing the job;
