Barry Davies
Barry George Davies MBE (born 24 October 1937 in London, England) is a British sports commentator and television presenter. He has covered a wide range of sports in a long career, primarily for the BBC.
Although best known for his football commentary, Davies has commentated on numerous other sports, including tennis, badminton, ice hockey, ice skating, gymnastics, hockey, cycling, beach volleyball and athletics, and primarily in the BBC's Olympics coverage, where he thrice (Sydney 2000, Athens 2004 and London 2012) commentated on the opening and closing ceremonies of the Summer Games. He was also the 'Voice of the Boat Race' between 1993 and 2004, until the BBC lost the rights to cover the event, and the presenter of ''Maestro'' in the 1980s, a series of interviews with retired sporting legends. He currently serves as the commentator for the Channel 4 programme, The Jump.
==Early life==
Davies was educated at Cranbrook School—which also numbers commentators Brian Moore and Peter West amongst its alumni—and King's College London, where he read Dentistry, although contrary to what has often been reported he never qualified or practised as a dentist. He says in his autobiography that his original aim was to become a doctor, but although he did well in his school exams, he didn't quite get the grades required to win a university place to read medicine. Dentistry was therefore a second choice that he "soon came to regret" and eventually he "flunked out" due to spending too much time playing and watching sport.
