Haven't heard that for a long time. I heard that the quote actually was said by David Coleman in a commentary referring to the programme before.
Reminds me of the story of the mayor of Swindon, where Diana Dors was from. She was returning from Hollywood to turn on the Christmas lights. She was more well known locally by her maiden name of Diana Fluck. Planning his introductory speech he was petrified of making the obvious mistake. So up on the stage he nervously goes and says:
"Ladies and gentlemen, it is with great pleasure that I introduce to you our star guest. We all love her, especially as she is our local girl. I therefore feel it right to introduce her by her real name; Ladies and Gentlemen, please welcome the very lovely Miss Diana Clunt."
