  • Who better to show you around every single area of The Crucible than Stephen? World Snooker allowed Cue Tips cameras an access all areas pass to tour Snooker's most famous venue and we took full advantage. Stephen zipped around The Crucible with microphone in hand, telling stories of his memories there and interviewing people along the way, including John Parrott and Rob Walker. The Cue Tips team also spoke to the fans in the streets of Sheffield and World Championships final referee, Brendan Moore, who is taking charge of his final-ever snooker match. This really is the only guide you'll ever need to The Crucible! So stick this on between the final sessions and enjoy!

      @James Woods where are your 777 centuries? There are so many weird cunts on this comment section. Who actually cares. Stephen Hendry was great in his day, Ronnie is great they have both given their life to the game of snooker. Ronnie is the best ever, in my opinion, but shooting down hendry is childish. Hope you enjoy your 11th birthday party. Enjoy the pubes and under arm hair. One day it starts growing out your nose.

    Stephen and JV are my favourite commentators. Love Rob Walker, he was great every time I went to the Crucible, gets the crowd into it before the match starts. I remember him introducing Brendan Moore for his first ever match at the Crucible, thought he was a good ref from the first time I saw him. Will be sad to see him go.

    I loved seeing AND hearing Virgo & Stephen in the booth! ☺️ After hearing them for so many years it’s so cool to watch them talking for a few seconds during a match 👏👏
    Also, sticking a mic in Walker’s face was very deserving .. 😅 he works hard sure, but I’ve often thought that he isn’t as cognizant as Hazel or others when interviewing the losers .. he has too big a smile on his face and it’s not appropriate in those situations.
    Anyways great tour in the great building!! 👍

    The place seems a lot bigger than I thought. I know places always look bigger through a wide angle lens, but still it seems odd that some players complain that it's too small.
    And the number of corridors is amazing - you could easily get lost, I think.
