The sporting interval between football seasons this time is more of a bridge than a break. With football descending into depression, the British public were given sporting drama at its finest in a clean environment and between two likeable personalities. 18 million people could not switch off as the World Championship Snooker Final reached its climax beyond midnight on Sunday 28 April 1985.
Mike is with Martyn to go through the wild momentum swings of one of the greatest comebacks in sport and The Rest Is History's Dominic Sandbrook returns to Nessun Dorma to discuss just how snooker filled the void being left by football, the draw of personalities in individual sports and the importance of television in British life in the mid 1980s.
