Willis is most fondly remembered for what ended as his best bowling figures of 8 for 43 at Headingley, Leeds, England in 1981 against the Australians. The match is best known as Botham's Test, when England, 7 wickets down following on, came back thanks to 149 not out by Ian Botham. However, England would still have lost that match were it not for a fine spell of aggressive bowling by Willis.

Since retiring from playing cricket, Willis has established himself as a television commentator on Sky, though he seems to have attracted a number of detractors, who have not responded positively to his somewhat melancholy style.
Willis inserted the middle name "Dylan" by deed poll in honour of his idol Bob Dylan.
