    Exactly.

    It's been a great match so far.

        • Dennis mentioned cliff that he arrived from toronto. How many times will we hear it now. Dennis couldnt stop him mentioning in last years final that his friend flew him via a private jet

                • Robertson is level with Selby with only 84% pot success and a highest break of 46......great stuff from world number 1......but he did win a world final without making a century break and having defeated only one top sixteen player during the tournament. Pure genius.

                  • Nearly 2 hours for four frames, disgraceful. What a snooze fest and this kind of match could kill the game. We need more entertainers and flair back, players who play with a style that gets fans on the edge of their seats. Players like Selby and Robertson can dictate the pace of the game and that is unfair on the rest of the players who get on with the game and play the game in the right spirit.

                        I'm feeling the opposite. 2 hours of hard match play snooker. Bliss.

                        • The tactical battle in the third game was superb.

                            Well said RaveDave. We're pretty spoilt in the UK TBH. BBC provide almost wall-to-wall coverage via BBC2 / Red Button 301 and Internet.

                            Generally the only problem with the red button is Football Focus (or Final Score whatever they call it) or Antiques Roadshow - these are just at weekends.

                            If you have Sky you can watch on Eurosport.

                            Spare a thought for our foreign members on here where there's little or no live coverage...

                            • For the last few days I've been asking for help to identify a song they play during the montage on the red button. I've FINALLY discovered what it is. For anyone remotely interested, I meant this one:

                              "Kryten, isn't it round about this time of year that your head goes back to the lab for retuning?"
