The man who gave birth to Frank Bruno's immortal catchphrase, though he never actually said it,

Sportsnight was great for midweek footy highlights - mainly cup replays and European games.

RIP Harry.

Yeah, it's 2010 and still the media facilities at some football clubs, like Bristol Rovers, are so poor that telephone reports still have to be made.

I remember Harry interviewing Muhammad Ali who vowed to return after Ken Norton broke his jaw when I should have gone to bed early. Harry was great in Muhammad Ali.

Harry was a legend because we did not get loads of live games, but those cup midweek repays until nearly midnight were great!

RIP Harry
