 Snooker - when did 'left' become 'right'? - Old Sock
At the weekend I watched the concluding frames of an intriguing snooker final between John Higgins and Mark Williams - with Higgins taking the deciding last frame.

I did wonder, though, when did commentators start referring to the pocket positions based on the 'TV screen view' - as opposed to the earlier 'view from the baulk end'? They now refer to what I used to call the 'bottom left' pocket as the 'top right', and so on.
