After our first in eight years, Crucible 147s are on the menu in this episode, as we also feast on three incredible wins in round two of the World Snooker Championship, for Kurt Maflin, Mark Williams and Mark Selby. The Break also chats with Whirlwind Jimmy White to see how he’s coping among the blood, sweat and tears of 17 days at the Crucible.

Joining host Rachel Casey is Dominic Dale, the former Grand Prix and Shanghai Masters champion, and esteemed commentator Phil Yates, who also discuss why we waited so long for a maximum break in this tournament, and whether there will be an asterisk next to the name of this year’s winner.
