Just read on Wiki, that "Whispering" Ted Lowe, the snooker commentator died on the same day as Sir Henry. He was 90 years old


Lowe uttered the occasional on-air gaffe, his most famous quote being, "and for those of you who are watching in black and white, the pink is next to the green." He once told viewers that Fred Davis, struggling to rest one leg on the edge of the table in order to reach a long shot, "is getting on a bit and is having trouble getting his leg over"




And it is reported that Seve Ballestros has just passed away as well
