This must be from the BBC archives. A delightful match, actually, and a sweet speech by Ray at the end.

Perrie is quite frustrating to watch; he gets in about four times a frame from long pots, scores 10 or 20 points and in the end Reardon clears up to win.

It's funny to see how they react to flukes, they just laugh in their opponents faces, Perrie at one time saying "Do you like that one, Reardon?" Perrie also gets a lot of flukes because he hits them so hard (remind you of anyone?)

Amazing that in just 40 years we have evolved from Perrie Mans in the final to Judd producing the best ever standard in a World Final.

Evolution
