Stuart Bingham On His World Championship, Money Matches With Jimmy White And Transforming His Game 

No wonder he's got his snooker room dedicated to his greatest achievement, he worked so hard for that for so long. Nobody can ever take it away from him. He won that title during a really awful time in my life and honestly, watching him winning the final, lifting the trophy, 'winner winner chicken dinner' and all that - gave me so much inspiration to keep my head down and keep working on getting well again. Now come on Stuart, go and get yourself that triple crown logo on the waistcoat! 😀 Great work as always Stephen, thanks for sharing these chats and frames with us.

I remember sitting with my wife in the restaurant on the same square where the Crucible is situated right after that crazy semifinal between Stuart and Judd Trump. (I still remember that tremendous 3 ball plant along the cushion that brought Stuart victory). All the people in the restaurant off course were talking about snooker. And suddenly, half an hour after the end of a game, Stuart and his family come in. And everyone in the restaurant started applauding! I remember Stuart smiling and turning red, because probably he didn’t expect that. And my other memory of that moment is Stuart’s lovely little son (4-6 years of age) with a toy cue in his hand very proud of his father! By the way, it was my first and only visit to Crucible to see snooker. I came from russia to fulfill my child dream and watch snooker live. And to meet my hero Steve Davis. I remember seeing Stephen Hendry in the hotel lobby, John Parrot during the breakfast. Together with my wife we had a glass of wine with Ken Doherty and Willie Thorn. And finally we had the great luck to see the final session between Stuart and Judd when it finished 17-16 sitting in the second row That was the trip of my life! P.S. Our VIP tickets to the semifinal included 5 pounds BETFRED tickets ))) I could bet them inside the Crucible before the final session. But there were so many people there that it was impossible to make a bet. And also, i never bet before so i didn’t really know how to do that. So we got into the main hall and started watching the game without bets. Stuart was winning 16-13 and needed only 1 frame to win, when Judd made 3 centuries in a row. And they both went to the toilet before the final frame. I jumped out of my seat, said to my wife to stay cool and ran to the hall to a BETFRED deck. I said that i want to bet on Stuart. The woman at the deck told me that i will only win 10 pounds, so i said that i bet on Stuart to win the title and ran back to my place. In few days in London i got my prize. It was 25+ pounds))))

Now that’s a snooker room😍

Stuart is such a down to earth guy. He certainly hasn't let winning a world title go to his head. Another great video Stephen. 👍❤

What I love about Stuart the most, apart from his top class snooker, is that he always got a smile on his face, especially during matches.. great fela ❤

It's been a delight to see Steven interview all these top players I've watched for years and learn that they're all decent down-to-Earth people, which isn't something you find in most sports.

Top class. I’ve enjoyed all the guests but Stephen Hendry makes every video. Humble, knowledgable, and a natural at the interviewing game.

Lovely episode. Such nice, easy flowing conversation. Well done Stephen and Stuart.

Stuart seems like such a down to earth person i wasn't expecting that.

That room looks absolutely fantastic.

bingham is a full powerhouse player, a remarkable potter and safety artist, definitely one of my favourite snooker players in the professional league

Stuart has been my favourite player on the circuit for years now...always looks like he is enjoying his snooker

Love the little stories and insight into their earlier careers , and the paths they've took and the people they've met as they built their earlier snooker careers

I love these episodes, getting to see the real character of the players... it makes watching the old highlights and any live matches so much more engaging, feeling like you "know" the players

As an Essex lad myself, about 15 mins down the road from Stuart, I always root for him. What a great guy

This channel is incredible, absolutely love these videos

Stuart Bingham always seemed like a top lad, and indeed he is. Great interview, cheers.

If you want someone to score a 147, Bingham's up there with the best and when someone like Hendry says, when Bingham played in the final to win his world title, " that was proper snooker! " That's a great compliment!

Fabulous guy is Stuart, had the pleasure of playing him in a few exhibitions .. hope he can find some form for the Worlds as his break building is phenomenal .. almost up there with the great S.H 😉… fab interview!

Fantastic chat with two amazing players. Great channel Stephen! 👌

This has easily become my favourite RU-vid channel.

Great to see the snooker pros in their own environment… excellent.👍

Love Stuart Bingham. Winner, winner, chicken dinner!

Brilliant! One of the best you’ve done Mr. H

Your channel is good for the game of snooker. Fun to watch you play and talk about the game. Getting to hear you and your guests talking about their favourite thing in the world to do is a treat. Thanks from Nova Scotia!!

Delightful. So relatively tough keeping in the loop on snooker in Canada. Used to get up at 2am to sneak out to the TV to watch Davis and Hendry when I was a kid.

No words for how enlightening, engaging and enjoyable this was for me. For a genuine World champion to be so open about his own experiences, not having his confidence against very talented plyers who didn't end up winning their World titles, in the same era as the Snooker's tennis (O'sullivan, Williams & Higgins)... what a period to go through and he did it. Amazing!

what a cracking player bingham is. balls of steel and one of the most entertaining players to watch.

Great episode Stephen, What a free flowing conversation !. Stuart is such a down to earth fella , I met him once at the World Championships & he was so open and happy to have a chat. Ronnie next PLEASE !!!!!!!!!!.

By far my most favourite snooker room we've seen on the channel so far! I bet that room is super comfy at night with just the light of the table and the TV on....I could practice all day in there! What a lucky guy Stewart is, he's earned every bit of it. Good luck this year🎱

Top bloke. This channel just keeps getting better, best snooker content there is.

That table yes please ❤

Again a pleasure to watch. I wish they would film like this at tournaments. Much better sight of the shots . Feels like I am playing myself.

What a lovely chap! I didn't like him till I got to know him better, now he's one of my favs.

Stephen you need to do more of these 'In house' videos with players.

Always remember watching Stuarts win in '15, like Stephen I can't say I 'fancied' him from the off! But his performance was spectacular all the way, and by the final it was an easy choice to support him. Almost the Joe Johnson of the 2010's. Such a nice guy, great conversation.

these videos are genuinely so good. could really help getting people into the game. im young and my brother and i have started playing. go to the club and there are young kids talking about this channel, its fantastic.

What an incredible channel this is! i’ve got into snooker around 6 months ago and just from watching your videos alone, i’ve seen so much improvement in myself so quickly. Plus getting insight into the professional game is so interesting! Love it.

I find these interviews to be very insightful and honest in a sort of laid back way. Good job Stephen.

Another quality video , Stephen i think you have found your vocation in life , producing brilliant video's !

Another excellent video this has very quickly become my favourite channel

I think in 2015/16 I had a frame against Stuart at Rayleigh lanes snooker where he practiced before he got the snooker room. Love the guy and a great person to be with and I’ll never forget that match

great respect for both Hendry and Davis who saved up all their personality to share with us post-career

I always liked Stuart Bingham. He seems like a nice down to earth bloke. Love the snooker room too, and once again Stephen's video was extremely enjoyable!

We are proud of stuart in basildon. Top man My mum worked with his mum for years

In this uniquely gentlaman sport, it's nice to watch the balance between the conversation and the game. As well, of course, as listening to the experienced players that you are, conversing about events and techniques etc. Nice!

Nice win there stephen love Bingham his game is amazing love watching him play can't wait for the world

Some genuine warmth on show in these videos, icing on the very nice cake 👍🙏

That was superb... Absolutely loved that...

Nice to get a insight into Stuart's life, until now I didn't have a clue what he was like as a person, he seem like a decent bloke. Love how the format of these videos being in the comfort of a their homes or a small studio really helps to let the guests relax and show a side you might not otherwise see. This channel is a gem Stephen. 👍

From someone who doesnt even follow snooker, this channel is great. I can only imagine how the snooker lovers are over the moon.

One of my favourite players to watch, always hits the ball so well.

These shows go so quickly. Brilliant content . 👍😎

Fantastic room. Two great people,. Two amazing world champions. Love watching all the different people you play but I do enjoy the conversation.👍

Lovely Room Beautiful Table.Well deserved, doesn't piss away his money

Incredible as always Stephen

Great stuff! Bingham plays tje game properly. Top bloke. Class act!

He's a tidy bloke Bingham. Hope he goes well at the worlds. Cracking snooker room that too. Would be a dream to have something like that at the bottom of my garden.

Been watching your videos since day one. And listened carefully, thank you for such amazing content. Keep up the hard work it's helping my game 😅

Stuart is always smiling, seems like a very nice and humble guy. You should have him on again Steven.

Brilliant! I'm not even a real snooker fan but loved the free flowing conversation. Kindest regards, Richard U.K

Great to see Bingham share his journey 👏

I like Stuart Bingham seems like a really nice guy! And hendry is a star!

Hope Stephen has a frame with the old pros from the past before it's too late, like Terry, Ray,Virgo and so..

Bingham class win vs Ronnie. Gutted but maximum respect to you Sir, you're a player and a half.

Stewart has been one of my favourite players since I watched him at the Crucible. He interacts with the crowd, nice to see. Stephen playing well here, looks more fluid, hope he can carry that into next season.

Love these Videos!! Look forward to new ones all the time great to see players relaxed and different side to them

Top man is Bingham would love to see him back to his best loved the way hes played in 2015.

Addicted to this channel now. Watched loads.

Half an hour is honestly not long enough for these videos. Hope you end up going back and doing a second round with some of the pros.

Always liked Stuart funny guy on and off the table and just a generally great guy ❤

Love this channel to bits. Well done Hendry ❤

Stuart seems a great lad and I like watching him play. Hopefully he does well in the worlds.

What a fantastic room to play this wonderful game. Another top episode. Looking forward to the next one. Love the fact that one week it's say a footballer then it's a snooker legend week after. Would love to see my hero Alan Shearer play against my all time favorite snooker player. Any chance of that Steven?. Keep up the great work on my favorite channel at the moment.

All credit to the man, what a cracking room

both legends!!!

Stuart is a lovely man and a great player. He doesn’t get the credit he deserves.

Really enjoying these videos. 👍🏻

What a fabulous episode that was... more content like this!

Cue tips and Hendry is pure gold.

This content is amazing, well done Stephen,Stuart and the editor/cameraman.

Always comes across like a lovely bloke I was delighted when he won the championship 🍺

What a pleasure to see these two fine players demonstrating the true joy of sport: "a friendly" in which the spark of competition animates pleasant conversation. *Great* episode. Such content will do a lot to promote the game too. Stuart Bingham has a razor sharp memory does he not? Think he loves playing too much to commentate, but some a that Essex would do me nicely

Brilliant.Stuart’s win along with Joe Johnson’s win in 1986 are the best in modern times. Stephen and Ronnie may be the best ever but once in a while you get a Roy of the Rovers moment in history. Regardless I love all you guys and thank you for this great upload 👍👍❤️

Loved watching this and hearing about Vic Harris again. Never knew that Stuart worked at The Edwardian Club in Leigh on Sea.

Love every video Stephen awesome are you ever going to get any future stars on the channel

If I made a brew and waited till the end of a frame to drink it it would stone cold.

Great episode as always. Really enjoying watching them after recently trying to get into snooker to watch the skill is top class. Would love to see Ronnie on a episode

Hendo, If you really wanted it’s still there, Great watching the Goat in action 🤴🏼

brilliant again, thank you

Great video, very interesting,I could listen to this content all night, and one more week till Sheffield thanks baz.

well done stephen for clearing up! great shots
