We call snooker pool over here, Peter, so it's sort of related to swimming and diving I guess.

We have both pool and snooker Ruth, two different games, but both involve holding a long stick in your hands and thrusting it backwards and forwards to make your balls bang together in just the right way. Predominently played by males.

I'm watching Denzil, even if it is POE an all. What sort of sport does Mrs T play in the barn Denzil, or are you still barred whilst the filming takes place?
