On Sky 2 for those like me who can't be arsed to pay for it.

Since ditching Sky years ago I miss the darts more than the football.

If I watch now I'll be too engrossed. The atmosphere is second to none.

[bertlambshank]

Well done ref.

[ADVILLAFAN]

I think I'd miss American football more than football on Sky.

The darts is good, although it doesn't hot up until after Christmas and into January.

Are there still two Darts World Championships ?

If so, why ?

There are 2, although the beebs one is in name only as the standard is miles away from the PDC.

It is quite remarkable that a game/sport like darts can have such a Hollywood style story.

Bloke with a remarkable shaped head has just beaten the "Bronzed Adonis".

Nine darter for Lewis to take the first set in the tie of the round against Barney.

[Dave Cooper please]

But still lost.

Meanwhile Huybrechts is starting to rattle Taylor.

[Drummond]

But still lost.

It's really engrossing, and the wife hates it. Which is why her being heavily pregnant and v. tired works well for the later matches of the evening.

I'd like Bunting to win and then say how easy it is in the PDC and go back to the BDO. Which obviously won't happen.

[eric woolban woolban]

Bunting's face cracks me up.

[Dave Cooper please]

I seriously hate this Snakebite Wright fellow, but I don't know why.

I seriously hate this Snakebite Wright fellow, but I don't know why.

He does try too hard either whole dressing up thing.

[cdbearsfan]

Don't blame him. Certain players are pretty much guaranteed to get in the Premier League. If you have something to make you stand out, such as ridiculous outfits and haircut, you have a better chance of getting invited.

Plus he's giving his missus' hairdressing business free advertising.

I don't really dislike any darts players except for Sex Pest Taylor, Martin "Chickeny" Adams and Juszzzzzzzztin Pipe.
