Hello everyone. It's Friday, it's five to five...

No it's not Crackerjack, it's Talking Snooker. A rare Friday episode for you, as we want to do justice to that brilliant event, the German Masters.

We look ahead to the action in Berlin and catch up with the rest of the snooker news, including three more maximum breaks at the Championship League.

We'll be back to reflect on the German Masters soon. Your correspondence is always welcome. If you're heading to the Tempodrom, we'd particularly like to hear from you - tweet us @TalkingSnooker or email talkingsnooker@yahoo.com
