Loved the old Ch4 racing team of John mcCririck, John francome, Lord Oaksey, Brough Scott, Jim McGrath and Derek Thompson..... they informed, had a giggle, and entertained.....great times
Loved you John Mccririck 💖 you were hilarious, and so good at your job. You were hilarious with Jackie Stallone in Celebrity Big brother. Wish you were still with us. R.I.P John ❤💐🐎
Yes but J Weaver knows his stuff. Only jockey to ride over 200 winners in a season and not be champion jockey. Frankie beat him that year and is still as good as ever imo.
He would've made a fantastic classroom teacher sorting out all the mischievous boys and girls! He would've chucked the blackboard eraser across the room at them lol.
John was such a larger than life character who made horse racing absolutely fun, and it’s not the same without his hilarious (if sometimes controversial) anecdotes. RIP
The only man I ever saw with the jewels to challenge Ruby Walsh on live TV. His type are a dying breed and the world is becoming a worse place because of it. RIP John. Long live freedom of speech.
Morph 1981 I agree. Love him or loath him , he is fascinating. PC Britain has spoiled good tv and unfortunately it's here to stay. Take me back to the 80's & 90's.
He was a character they seem to chase off characters from the main channels in England on tv thesedays. He was entertaining as was Brian Clough characters. People are desperate for bland middle of the road pc Alan Titchmarsh or Gary Lineker types.
I loved Channel 4 racing every saturday with the morning line then the afternoon racing was only 4 but i was hooked still am to this day they need mcririck on ITV Racing
It's such a shame people of the calibre of John McCririck, John Francombe, Fat Al, Derek Thompson and the female aren't on anymore. I used to get out of bed early Saturday morning for the entertainment. I never get up for the new crowd because they're boring as fuck. The only one I enjoy is Chapman. You don't appreciate what you have until it's gone. Thanks John and your racing family for giving me many years of fantastic entertainment.
Memories of waking up on a Saturday morning with a huge hangover, large fry up and endless cups of coffee watching The Morning Line..

John Francome was the reason I opened a betting account 20 years ago he was always tipping winners 30 secs b4 the off lol 😂😂😂
Totally agree. No way Big Mac would get on the telly nowadays. Which tells you everything you need to know about modern telly. Bland, boring, beige.
He was so funny and totally unique, I really do miss him on the racing. Its a much duller experience without him . May he Rest in Piece
* Peace
I'm dying of laughter. He's hilarious
Oh snap!
Still laughing? 😂
"How old are you? You're 55 and look at you"
"BEHAVE YOURSELF YOU FOOL!" Legend
I love watching big john again after all this time, it's like he never went away. RIP BIG JOHN 🙏❤️🇬🇧🤣😅 Apr twenty three
What a legend, the clobber on him was top class
There's no characters on television anymore and Mccririck is certainly one of them.
Thank you David Coleman
His is a gent and very intelligent and rest in peace John McCririck.
What a guy. Never forgotten big mac
RIP Mac. You may have had some old fashioned views but you made losing money on a Saturday afternoon bearable!
Loved you John Mccririck 💖 you were hilarious, and so good at your job. You were hilarious with Jackie Stallone in Celebrity Big brother. Wish you were still with us.
R.I.P John ❤💐🐎
He was a legend.. always comedy gold.. but he loved the game and we will miss him
"You're 55, look at you!"
LMAO!
"BEHAVE YOURSELF!"
Being Irish 🇮🇪 and not liking horse racing I know is sacrilege,but John was entertaining,RIP
When channel 4 racing was class
John McCririck is a quietly spoken bloke when he is in private. There will never be another horse racing commentor like him.
I miss john and saturday afternoon racing. ITS CRAP NOW.
Your right..
Me too
He'd be cancelled now, ohhhhh he's offensive.
Yes but J Weaver knows his stuff. Only jockey to ride over 200 winners in a season and not be champion jockey. Frankie beat him that year and is still as good as ever imo.
@@bazglsgw1208Weaver, ran a failed tipping service. The nickname he's got of the 'Shark', I can't stop howling laughing.
British TV needs more classic people like John McKirik and Richard Madeley - always entertainment.
He would've made a fantastic classroom teacher sorting out all the mischievous boys and girls! He would've chucked the blackboard eraser across the room at them lol.
I don't think so, he was too much fun to wind up. The ones who are good at classroom discipline tend to be both strict and boring.
RIP JM u was the only reason I watched race on Channel 4
Even when he told people off it was in a polite and humoured way RIP John
John was such a larger than life character who made horse racing absolutely fun, and it’s not the same without his hilarious (if sometimes controversial) anecdotes. RIP
RIP Big Mac, loved watching you at the races.
Great man , great hat
He plays up to it all the time. The fools are those who get their knickers in a twist about him.
+SepticSceptic He was a card and people like to play cards
SepticSceptic he was a cock and people like to play cocks.
The only man I ever saw with the jewels to challenge Ruby Walsh on live TV. His type are a dying breed and the world is becoming a worse place because of it. RIP John. Long live freedom of speech.
Rip big Mac what a character you will be missed by us racing fans 🏇🏼☹️
lol. 1:40
"What is wrong with you, Grow up!,. how old are you?, you're 55..and look at you!!"
That so Alan Partridge!.
We love you John,rip.
Please come back.
x.
Absolute legend. Tv is shite now all these characters are gone in pc Britain.
Morph 1981
I agree. Love him or loath him , he is fascinating. PC Britain has spoiled good tv and unfortunately it's here to stay. Take me back to the 80's & 90's.
@@strawberrybounce5026 everything to do with pc.
We need more people like him!
Fantastic😁 a true character and a marmite kind of guy !
RIP Mac 👍
john is a 90s legend
Teach your children to behave!!🤣
Gonna miss this man, the things he comes out with, you just can;'t stay mad at him.
RIP John McCririck
A spades a spade with John, he's 100% genuine.
'Behave yourself!'
GROW UP!!
Great character and racing misses him, RIP John
John McCririck made Channel 4 Racing worth watching, RIP Big Mac.
There was one time I remember a guy standing next to him holding up a shirt saying “Same shit different day”
I miss John mcririck ❤
same
I agree what a legend he is! He's so funny and I love his fashion sense.
RIP Big Mac, legend
The horse mask acting scared when he turned round is absolute gold
He was a character they seem to chase off characters from the main channels in England on tv thesedays.
He was entertaining as was Brian Clough characters.
People are desperate for bland middle of the road pc Alan Titchmarsh or Gary Lineker types.
Unlike thr griftets, in Racing Media, today the likes of Big Mac etc. Were a breath of fresh air. They all talk shite nowadays.
what a legend love watching him so funny
*G R O W U P*
*B E H A V E Y O U R S E L F*
"Your 55 and look at you!!!" hahaha
A legend calling the odds upstairs now.
What a legend. RIP
Who else wishes Chapman would run about calling people toe rags n insulting people then apologising 🤣🤣🤣
When you're washing your windscreens at the traffic lights do i interrupt you
Brilliant intelligent individual how I miss Big Mac RIP the greatest entertainer of the betting jungle
I loved Channel 4 racing every saturday with the morning line then the afternoon racing was only 4 but i was hooked still am to this day they need mcririck on ITV Racing
Ohh what a great day out that would have been at the races with a load of mates all dressed like JM and seeing him there.Brilliant!!
Rofl 'Behave yourself'
I love JM hes a fuking riot. lol
i couldnt have put it better myself mate, spot on!
I never thought I would say this, but I actually miss him on C4 racing, sorry Emma, Tanya et al, but it ain't the same !!
what a legend!
Those who sacked him from horse racing were foolish - he made you want to watch it simply to see him.
Great days 🐎
"What is wrong with you? How old are you?! You're fifty-five and look at you!" Lmao
He was great
John Is a LEGEND ! :) God Bless you Sir
The world is a poorer place without him RIP big mac
A huge loss for racing when this character was removed from the game by the snowflakes of today.
Wasn’t his biggest fan but an absolute one off to be fair and by the sounds of it he sounded like he was a top bloke off the camera! RIP Big Mac
He was hilarious on Celeb Big Brother arguing with Jackie Stallone!!
I liked you. R.I.P. John.
RIP pimp
....his antics were one of the highlights of channel 4 racing.....a one off......the real tossers are standing behind............
Legend

Omg. How I miss big mac giving his utterly honest opinion on the MORNING LINE. Sometimes to the horror of the other hosts.
He was a man the punters loved. Hate the way everything has gone all PC and virtue signalling. I rarely watch racing now because if it
is it just me whos waiting for steve coogan to rip off a fat suit?
The pie in the face was over the top to be fair
Backed down when he swore at that bloke and he talked back.
this made horse racing FUN 😂
McCririck lit a fuse up the so dull presenters of any program he was on.
RIP john
Still miss you on the TV Big John! 📺
the man the myth the legend
2:39 -2:44
"Behave yourself you fool"
Sooo funnny
cgaw14 you made me laugh so much mate pmsl!!!!
Took no shit did jon hahaha 😂 🤣 😆
Rest in peace..
Know body has replaced big mac never dull when he was around r .l p john
you hate him and love him such a legend.
Legend, RIP, hic!
2019 Cheltenham Festival and no remote sign of big mac. Guess what? The racing world is a much duller place.
John Mccririck is a savage and I love it.
RIP John ☆
RIP Big Mac Never be same again on Saturday afternoon
Was just a young kid at the time watching but his voice brings back memories
RIP the big man!
Good times! The state if itv coverage is nowadays is embarrassing!
"grow up u toe rag" lol :D
