Radio Snooker with Nick Metcalfe

I'm back with even more Points of View. I do appreciate them very much.

Topics here include glory for Barry Hawkins in Wales, the location of the Welsh Open and that premature trophy lifting from Jack Lisowski.

There is likely to be a wee break in this service now - I've got no big ideas at the moment - but it's never 100 per cent certain. Events dear boy, events, and all that.

If you would be so kind as to leave good ratings and reviews on your favourite outlet - especially on Apple - I would be very grateful.

I'm back on the air to reflect on glory for Barry Hawkins at the Welsh Open. I talk you through the final, where Hawkins beat Jack Lisowski, and recap the results from the last 16 onwards.

I'll return soon, so don't touch that dial. Any snooker views from you are always gratefully received - tweet me @RadioSnooker or email [email protected]

I look ahead to what should be a fabulous Welsh Open final in Llandudno, Barry Hawkins v Jack Lisowski.

I also reflect on what was an exciting Saturday of semi-final action in the final Home Nations event of the season.

Another cracking semi-final Saturday in snooker. With these Rocher, you're really spoiling us.

Barry Hawkins v Wu Yize and John Higgins v Jack Lisowski in Llandudno. Fascinating day in store and I look ahead, as well as some reflections on a long Friday of quarter-final action.

I'm joined by one of snooker's most measured judges, Daniel Clarke, aka TheGreenBaize, for this new broadcast on Radio Snooker.

We start with your tributes to John Virgo, with Daniel's own thoughts on the loss of a beloved snooker character.

Your correspondence includes thoughts on tournaments in mainland Europe, Mark Selby's chances of winning more world titles, television coverage and the location of the Welsh Open.

Many thanks for all your opinions and don't touch that dial - Radio Snooker will return soon.
