As Ronnie O’Sullivan reaches his half-century will Snooker ever see another player like him?

Available for over a year

As Ronnie O’Sullivan turns 50 years of age we assess his genius and all-round impact on the sport of snooker. He’s won seven World Titles and much more besides, but there have been challenges off-the-table which he's been very frank about. These have included issues with his mental health, substance abuse and run-ins with authority figures. Ed Harry is joined by the BBC snooker commentator, former UK Champion and star of the 1990s snooker game show Big Break, John Virgo and by BBC Snooker reporter and host of the podcast “Framed”, Shabnam Younus-Jewell. They reflect on their favourite Ronnie moments and asses his impact and legacy in the sport.
