Could of been better
13 February 2017
Just like to say firstly that I like the show but... it could of been so much better. The subject matter is good and the idea to take Ronnie to the land of Pool is a great one due to his undoubted talent in all forms of the green and blue baize. The problem was that is seemed a little too rushed due to the (less than an hour) format they had to squeeze the programme into. The places and factories they visited are interesting to the viewer but leaves you wanting more from the visit and more importantly from the Ronnie who was clearly enjoying himself.

Secondly as the whole point of the show was to play pool and hustle. The time where he is actually doing this, the viewer is left with only short out of sequence shots of both Ronnie and his opposition at the table. The viewer is left with no idea of how the games went without being told the out come by the voice over guy. As the balls on the table and the sequence in which they where potted was all over the place!

Again I know they couldn't spend the time showing a full game but maybe if a second series is possible, consideration should be made to this issue.
