This was advertised during the British Open coverage on Eurosport.
Premieres Saturday October 15 at 8pm UK time.
It's Ronnie talking to Alan McManus about his 7th World Title. I don't think it's anything to do with the documentary that was being filmed at the Crucible though.

He's considered the GOAT.
I don't know who this Ronnie is though.

What did you guys make of it?
I enjoyed it. I especially enjoyed the part he says Ronnie doesn't really fancy playing Higgins, whereas Higgins does, but Ronnie fancies playing MJW as opposed to MJW not really looking forward to play Ronnie.
I believe this is true, hence the h2h don't lie.

Enjoyed it too. I wasnt surprised when he said that because thats been the pattern for quite a while actually. The Crucible H2H kinda show it. Even though you have to say that ROS obviously still did pretty good against Higgins. But obviously nowhere near as well as he did against MJW.
ROS 5:0 MJW
ROS 3:3 Higgins
MJW 4:1 Higgins

I thought it was worth watching for the old footage alone. I loved the Alain Robidoux interview especially.
And Angles having a smoke in the post-match press conference in 1993.

I enjoyed it, as others have said seeing some of the old footage. I also enjoyed that they touched on 2014, which ultimately paved the way for the 2020 semi-final, again I'm glad they covered these important moments outside of the obvious.

Enjoyed it. Like others have said it was nice that it went to all his wins rather than just the seventh.

I enjoyed it but it felt a bit light on some aspects, like discussion of his final opponents and things like that. I also felt like the first three wins weren’t discussed as in-depth but maybe I need to re-watch.

I always wonder how Ronnie thinks 2012 was the best he played from start to finish. Imo it wasnt even close.
