I had the great pleasure to caddy for Peter at one of his charity "A round with Alliss" a few years ago.This wasn't one of the televised series but one where some club golfers had bid in a charity auction to play with Peter. This was at Swinley Forest GC.
I can only say that Peter was an absolute joy to caddy for. Just great fun, kind, appreciative.... and what a raconteur. Just fantastic company, and he could still play a bit as well.
A round I'll always remember. RIP Peter, you're greatly missed.

Peter Alliss was the very best for this sort of program. RIP Peter and thanks for your legacy.

Hollinwell: the most underrated golf course in the UK. RIP Peter, what a golfer (shame about the yips) and the great voice of golf.

Utterly fantastic. What a natural Peter Allis was. I used to love these in 70s and 80s

Brilliant set of BBC programmes featuring the superb Peter Alliss. In this programme my favourite aspect are the caddies. Flat caps. From a different era...

What a great video. I played in the British Youths Championship there in 1987, it was an unforgettable experience.

Peter was great at maintaining his spine angle and shoulder turn at 90 degrees around that spine angle. Oh and he was the best golf commentator of all time too! Michael was the best interviewer and I am the very best at peeling potatoes!

It's a shame there's no more of these on YouTube, I guess the BBC have erased all the other episodes.

Lovely episode, like two old friends catching up after time apart and what excellent coaching from Peter Alliss.

This was an excellent programme , the BBC should start making these again, I’m sure they would be extremely popular.

Loved the programme with Allis…Parkinson was an average interviewer blessed with the fact that he had a wealth of real superstars in the golden age to interview

Unfortunately BBC wont make programs like this anymore . Too much hassle for them .

Ah, the 13th at Hollinwell! About 4 years ago, hitting a 4 iron into the sun, I collapsed completely into the shot, losing it in the rubbish on the left. Put down a 2nd ball and played a rescue club up into the sun, never to be seen again until, down at the green, one of my companions espied my 2nd ball nestling in the hole. A different way of making a par 3!

This is a gem of a video. I loved this programme. RIP Peter Alliss. I've been lucky to play Hollinwell 3 or 4 times about 20 years ago. Such a great course. I can still remember every hole.
