Vine's Waterloo

David Vine has been presenting BBC's snooker coverage for as long as anyone can remember

David Vine has been presenting BBC's snooker coverage for as long as anyone can remember. This year the corporation will screen 100-hours play and a lot of it will go out at peak times rather than at a late-night slot. Vine as you will remember has under gone many evolutions. Having covered tennis, showjumping, skiing, greyhound racing, rugby union, weightlifting and bowls, he also used to present A Question of Sport, Superstars, It's a Knockout, Miss World, Ski Sunday and even the Eurovision Song Contest. Sharp memories may remember Vine for hosting the Eurovision the year ABBA won it with Waterloo.
