I must admit I always thought John Harris was without doubt the finest MC British wrestling ever had, but having watched some old World of Sport footage from the eighties recently, I was able to re aquaint myself with a very close second to John Harris, Fred Downes. Fred was not used that often on TV but when he was, he often became quite animated as well being a clear and articulate speaker. Check out John Quinn's match with Caswell Martin, as Fred became quite involved and was n't frightened to air his own thoughts ! I can recall seeing Fred once at King's Lynn, little surprise there as he apparantly lived in Attleborough in Norfolk (where I believe he had an antique shop?), but he only, as far as I'm aware, worked for Dale Martins and not All Star Promotions. So have any of the old 'seniles' got any thoughts on Fred. Did he ever wrestle or referee and is he still alive?
