Steve was delighted to be asked to be host & comedian for the 1985 World Snooker final rematch at Whitley Bay Snooker Centre. Often described as the best World Snooker final ever, it featured two legends of World Snooker – Steve Davis and Dennis Taylor. The whole final went to a black ball finish, in which Dennis Taylor took the crown. It was a big shock, as Steve Davis was at the time, generally considered invincible.

The evening was officiated by two of the most respected referees, not only in the North East, but in the UK; Vera Selby and Stan Chambers.

After an evening of fun and entertainment, it was Dennis who once again potted the black to win. Of course, Dennis’s now famous celebration followed.

The evening was a massive success. Steve would like to say thank you to Paul, Alison and Amber Rinaldi at Whitley Bay Snooker Centre.
