Double is correct. Not Spencer - a different Lancastrian

I've seen it many times, of course, but can't remember exactly.
Does he say 'Den' (short for Dennis)?

'He played all right, I suppose, but it was _____________________ in the first session that did me in. He's a talented player but I wouldn't say he is the best player in the world, even though the rankings would seem to prove it'.

I will try “exhaustion”, Doug Mountjoy, and guess that he’s speaking in the aftermath of the 1981 World Final.

Then I will try “hangover”, Jimmy White, and the aftermath of the 1984 World Final.

It is a 1980s match, but this comment is far too salty for either Doug or Jimmy.

It's about S Davis, but it's not boredom, and not by A Higgins. Not by any of the Higginses, in fact.
