Who,s got some good quote,s or gaffs.

Whispering ted Lowe
Pot Blacks Whispering Ted Lowe in the old days before we had colour TV
Legendary commentator Ted Lowe, aware that not all viewers had colour televisions, said "and for those of you who are watching in black and white, the pink is next to the green
I remember him saying that, still looked the same to me
and 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"

Those were the days if the telly went wrong on any of its 3 channels you did,nt call out an engineer.. You just kicked or thumped the crap out of the set till the picture came back.
