I can answer this, having met the man not once but twice! Yes, pretty much.

apparently he doesn't like snooker and only did the "big break" theme tune for the money but performs it as an encore to piss people off - that's pretty damn kewl

Fwiw I think you'll find "Snookering You" was originally written by Mike "The Wombles" Batt and recorded by the Captain as part of a whole rock opera thing, and was only later adopted as the theme music for "Big Break".

LOL! I missed this earlier. Well, seeing as we're name dropping....

Having met the man *dozens* of times, shared a mini-bus with him, slept on his hotel room and his bedroom floor and interviewed him twice; NO! Or at least, only *VERY* sporadically and when he's *extremely* hung over!
