This tutorial is amazing because I can understand easily every word Dennis is speaking. I'm a french speaking lad and, some times, trying to understand the lingo of some commentators is so difficult that I lose a lot of what they're saying. To me, Dennis Taylor and John Virgo are the easyest to understand! I won't make a list here of the hardests to understand, they are too many!
This is amazing. I had this on VHS when I was 8 years old and is basically how I learned to play pool and snooker, along with some good local players. Stodd me in really good stead!
So do I. I enjoy watching the players today but they seem so focused on their game (not a bad thing) that you never really see their personality on screen.

Dennis seems like the friend who is 5 years older to you and gives you advice alongwith joining in to fool around as well. Wonderful personally.
He does come across like that doesn't he? He seems a really patient teacher, I wish he taught me when I used to play more.

Haha same for me! Watched this on VHS about 30 years ago or more
Love the old snooker masters. Just great personalities.

I remember watching this just prior to the 1990 World Championship, yes its 29 years old!
I could drink a pitcher of beer and listen to Dennis tell stories for hours!
Sounds a good plan 😁
Absolutely great video. Dennis is definitely 1 of the greats. He's not quite a steve Davis, but good in his own right.
I love that his glasses allow him to look up through them while his head is down taking the shot. They are so tall!
I haven't seen anyone wearing glasses like his for a very long time.
old comment but they were actually custom made bc his normal glasses got in the way so he got someone to make a custom frame that didnt block his view
How can you not love him!
Terrific upload!
Thank you
One of my favorite player.
Dennis is one of my favourite characters in snooker. I'm glad he won that final because steve got 6 anyway lol
I think most people watching were willing Denise on, on that final.
I wish Ray Reardon would also become an announcer. Dennis and Ray would do well together.
Ray could only do the night matches unless he has a screen in his coffin
@@adamglasgow9268 🤣🤣🤣👏👏
Had the book as well as the video to this programme
Great video. Thank you very much.
You're welcome
You'll always be a world champion Dennis
1:41:45 Wow I didn't know about that one. I'm using that.
I remember my dad buying me this vid about 30 years ago and it completely ruined my game haha
Walter made a break of 40 in his fucking dreams
That refree who didnt get the handshake first
Think I had this on a BBC vhs video tape
Wonder if they all still play ? I think if I was playing Nora my tactic would be to leave the cue ball where she couldn’t reach!
😂
Cant believe hes only 21 here
This was filmed five years after he won the worlds. Can't believe he was only 16 when he won that...
Great irishman
imagine how good he'd be if he wasn't legally blind
NORA CHANGED OUTFITS
Wonder what ever became of these folks?

Walter would be better off using that cue to light the fire
🤣
I think all the people there are actors anyway and are told what to say and what to do
It's Bubbles with an English accent. !
He isn’t English
