Gods of Snooker

Series 1 Episode 3

By the mid-80s snooker was the biggest sport in the country but two distinct camps had emerged amongst the players. On one side were Barry Hearn's `Matchroom Mob', including Dennis Taylor and Steve Davis: clean-living, utterly professional and family friendly. In sharp contrast was a group that included Alex Higgins, Jimmy White and Kirk Stevens, who all embraced a more rock and roll lifestyle.
