RIP Dickie Davies. A true legend of World of Sport. Dickie, would share a joke with Kent Walton during the broadcast.
According to his obituary in the Times he admired the Professionalism of the wrestlers and their ability to improvise
R.I.P. Dickie.
Met him briefly at an interview for SPORTSMASTERS a tv sports quiz. he told me he was going to the Epsom Derby the following day. RIP Dickie
