Title: RIP Sid Waddell, voice of darts, writer of Jossy's Giants Post by: Batch on Sunday, August 12, 2012, 13:28:20 Not a big darts fan myself, but I guess his "one hundred and eighty" is the one we all know.
Didn't realise until today that he was also the writer of Jossy's Giants - loved this when I was a kid.
