all keyed up for the coverage to start.

fucking mark selbore on first.

that bbc reporter has got an eye catching hairdo.

She's a fucking div, if she thinks she can just walk in with her big hairdo & try to replace our Hazel she's got another thing coming. She can't compete with Seema either, nobody can pretend to be interested in what Steve Davis has as well as she does. Back of the queue big hairdo woman!

trust selbore to be setting crucible records like these.

An epic slugfest ensued in the 22nd frame, lasting 85 minutes and 22 seconds.

thank god he's out.

Is that a half eaten Bourbon biscuit in her hand?

God, I hate her.

Kyren Wilson, Selby & Godsquad all out, what a beautiful tournament this is already!

Was thinking this earlier. Wilson was really winding me up last night. Was praying he didn't get that 147. Its going to be the finest quarter finals in crucible history.

I watched a bit of this over the weekend and it was a huge relief to see they have finally made it feel a bit more modern and fresh. I was fucking horrified though to see Hazel Irvine was still involved and trying to keep up in some jazzy jacket. Just fuck off and die, Hazel. There are genuine dolly birds involved now.

Of course though, she still looked better than some of the players past and present. Jeez louise! Shout outs to John Parrott and Mark Selby who looked great. Selby's sliver mane is a thing of pure beauty. The majority involved though still look like death. Lisowski looks like a barmen who has spent the last 5 years promising he had another better job lined up that never materialised. Do they call him The Big Lisowski? They should. If not then boot him out of the sport along with Maguire, McGill and all the other freaks.

Mate, you take back what you said about Hazel, THIS INSTANT (cheers SRK).

Just remember mate, in 5 minutes I can be at your door bruv, take it back.

nice 147 from robbo.

he just forgot to win the match.

could be a higgins-williams final.

who will ronnie play in the semi's?

higgins-lisowski down to a decider.

ronnie with a toughy against higgins.

he's struggled against john in recent times.
