More video, stories and full race schedule at racing.channel4...
What a wonderful man. Truly, the voice of racing. I wrote to him on his knighthood and received a beautiful hand-written reply which i treasure.
I get goose bumps every time I hear some of his commentaries.
Chris Aspland ditto!!!
No doubt about it the best commentator ever sent shivers too
A truly great sports commentator
A great tribute by a genuis to a genuis,met him at Cheltenham many times a true gentleman
A befitting tribute to a great man. I was not aware that Peter had passed away. His uniqueness and distinguishing voice will be missed throughout the racing world. RIP my friend.
lovely tribute from Alastair Down , perfection , the Dawn Run commentary is THE greatest racehorse commentary of all time will never be bettered
Afraid I have to say Desert orchid was the pinnacle for me..
A perfect tribute from Alistair Down as always...RIP Sir Peter....
A fitting tribute to a pure legend from a living genuis
Sir Peter o' sullevan very much missed 1918-2015
A young ex sportsman wanted to go into the media, maybe become a commentator. He got permission to sit with Peter O'Sullevan to learn the trade, on condition that he kept quiet. That young man was Richie Benaud, who some would say was the greatest sports commentator of all time, though he never forgot the invaluable lesson of watching another commentating great in action.
Ironically, and sadly, Richie Benaud passed away a couple of months before Peter O'Sullevan.
Forever in my heart
Legend...god bless peter...🐎🎋
Still miss this knight's voice, today's commentators will always aspire to be like Sir POS
Absolutely, me too. There'll never ever be another Sir POS.

Went on too long, he was shit for the last ten years
Shit?? I guess you would know ....

The old man gave decades of service to the racing fraternity and in "the last ten years" he was no longer the force of yesteryear, and upon his death all you can say is that he was "shit?" ... Now you proclaim that you are not deaf. Look little girl, it is clear that you are worse than deaf.
Dismissed !!!
