Tony Jacklin on Stricktly

Vanessa Feltz is also signed up; don't envy whoever is partnered with her when it comes to the lifts. Mrs BiM is deeply unimpressed at the thought of Tony Jacklin spoiling her viewing.
 
Is that sound the bottom of the barrel being scraped. Tony Jacklin???? Hardly a household name these days outside of golfing circles. Vanessa Feltz - token big bird in the Anne Widdecombe mould
 
I caught the last minute of The One Show tonight - a programme I never watch - and they had Jacklin come on just to promote his appearance on it.
He was using a walking stick and seemed unsteady.
Anyone see it?
Is it just a current injury?

(His was the first ever televised hole in one - 16th hole at Royal St. Georges in the 1967 Dunlop Masters.)
 
Surprised at this! These kind of trash TV programmes are just vehicles for ailing 'celebs' to get 'back in' or at least some profile. Tony Jacklin has never been a 'celeb' so to speak, he was just well respected in his field so what motivates him to do this is beyond me.

Is he that short of a bob or 2.....?
