Mark Allen?
As in Alan Davies of Jonathan Creek.
Could even be Mark Davies on that logic.
Am I allowed to submit two names?

Hmm. I’m starting to think the Mark in question isn’t the answer to the puzzle, but rather that they lead to the player we’re looking for

A recap of the clues so far for the new page:
Detective Mark
The player did commentate sometimes
the player is not a current pro
we are looking for both their names.
The detective in question has been on the tele for over a decade and has so far clocked up 12 seasons/series.
The Mark in question is indeed a snooker player.
The player we're looking for has won 2 Snooker World Championships.

I’d happily have a go but I tied myself in knots with it. The 12 season detective series threw me.

He seems to be taking a long time over his shot, the referee is getting twitchy.

Correct!
In a mirror you might ‘see/Si’ ‘tubed’ as ‘debut’.
