:10:32. > :10:39.Dobromyslova is in the mood to deliver that. Deta Hedman, you

:10:49. > :10:50.
:10:50. > :11:00.imagination. Third leg, it is Anastasia Dobromyslova to throw
:11:00. > :11:01.
:11:01. > :11:07.first. If she just concentrates on holding the sets. It could easily
:11:07. > :11:16.be Anastasia Dobromyslova's here. It is a very short format. The best

:11:26. > :11:29.
:11:30. > :11:33.that extraordinary semifinal. 11 legs with the throw. Anastasia
:11:33. > :11:42.Dobromyslova will be kicking herself. She had a chance to break
:11:42. > :11:52.her opponents there and did not take it. She has Mr nine shots at

:16:46. > :16:51.wanted. There is a welcome one. It leads to run a fish. -- weaves her
:16:51. > :17:01.on a finish. There is a �3,000 cheque for the highest finish of

:17:12. > :17:14.
:17:14. > :17:24.Tony. You can open them now. She was factions aware. None of those
:17:24. > :17:32.
:17:32. > :17:42.could fix it for her. 97 left. Lovely cover. For the first set,
:17:42. > :17:45.
:17:45. > :17:55.Deta Hedman, treble 18. 18 verbal side. Bull's eye for the set.
:17:55. > :17:57.
:17:57. > :18:07.did not flow with any freedom at all. Anastasia Dobromyslova for she
:18:07. > :18:45.
:18:45. > :18:55.has got it. A NASA server for the wonder who they want to win? They
:18:55. > :19:06.
:19:06. > :19:16.are just here for the fun. She will like the 180, I am sure. Now then,
:19:16. > :19:49.
:19:49. > :19:56.Hedman is struggling to keep pace. Unless she can get in a trouble.
:19:56. > :20:04.She struggled with her doubles early on in the semifinal. But then
:20:04. > :20:14.she barely missed. She will have darts for the set. Whatever Deta
:20:14. > :20:19.
:20:19. > :20:29.Hedman does here. Certainly not good enough. It is 80 now for the
:20:29. > :20:38.
:20:38. > :20:48.27-year-old. Double top for the set. She will focus on that double top.
:20:48. > :20:55.
:20:55. > :21:05.140 will be perfect. That is the second dart for the set. That is
:21:05. > :21:06.
:21:06. > :21:14.the third she has missed. We have had two breaks to throw. Could this
:21:14. > :21:24.be the key break for Deta Hedman. She has hacked segment -- hit
:21:24. > :21:28.
:21:28. > :21:35.single 11. A lovely second dart. Double 16 now. Deta Hedman, the
:21:35. > :21:45.number one seed has struck. Right into the slot it goes. Beautiful
:21:45. > :21:55.double 16. If you want to whistle while they are throwing, the car
:21:55. > :22:03.park is empty, thank you. Talk about a late charge into that set.
:22:03. > :22:13.Deta Hedman was nowhere in the deciding leg. Even with two darts
:22:13. > :22:18.left. No problem. Look at those percentages. Three out of six, that
:22:18. > :22:26.is where Deta Hedman is putting her stand. Anastasia Dobromyslova at
:22:26. > :22:36.just taking time to look at that score before she retreats to darts.
:22:36. > :22:36.
:22:36. > :23:18.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 125 seconds
:23:18. > :23:28.feels that! 180! Deta Hedman is piling on the pressure. She did it
:23:28. > :23:46.
:23:46. > :23:55.previously at the right time. That darts. She just needs to hold her
:23:55. > :24:05.throw or three times and she will be the new World Championship. She
:24:05. > :24:10.
:24:10. > :24:20.went for 19. Just missed it. Excellent counting. To lead the 36.
:24:20. > :24:25.
:24:25. > :24:33.She might not have a chance that it. Deta Hedman, you require 36.
:24:33. > :24:41.start of the second set. Second leg, it is Anastasia Dobromyslova to
:24:41. > :24:51.throw next. An array thrown into the heart of her opponent. She is
:24:51. > :25:04.
:25:04. > :25:14.brilliant at her darts tonight, day to -- Deta Hedman. Both ladies
:25:14. > :25:14.
:25:14. > :25:24.averaging 75 in this final. Good standard. It is on her doubles that
:25:24. > :25:27.
:25:27. > :25:37.Deta Hedman that is trying to destroy or her opponent. She looks
:25:37. > :25:43.
:25:43. > :25:53.very serene when she has a chance to win a leg. A round of applause
:25:53. > :25:56.
:25:56. > :26:05.from Tony Martin. He will not like what he is seeing. Tony Martin,
:26:05. > :26:15.Anastasia Dobromyslova's husband. A darts player himself. He lost to
:26:15. > :26:26.
:26:26. > :26:30.Simon what lock. Support for Deta Hedman. I am sure there will be a
:26:30. > :26:40.number of darts fans around the world keeping their fingers crossed
:26:40. > :26:48.
:26:48. > :26:58.for Deta Hedman. But Anastasia Deta Hedman could put some pressure
:26:58. > :27:02.on here. Anastasia Dobromyslova has been struggling with the doubles. A
:27:02. > :27:11.fantastic last dart. This is where Anastasia Dobromyslova has
:27:11. > :27:21.struggled. Sixteens, two of them she wants. She is not hitting her
:27:21. > :27:21.
:27:21. > :27:31.doubles at the moment. She could write Deta Hedman off. A great
:27:31. > :27:31.
:27:31. > :27:41.first dart. Single 18. Needs a Bull's eye for a 2-0 lead. You
:27:41. > :27:46.
:27:46. > :27:56.could just feel the agony. Still cannot buy a double. She has missed
:27:56. > :28:06.
:28:06. > :28:16.20. To the very brink at the world title. Got such now to lovely
:28:16. > :28:31.
:28:31. > :28:40.rhythm before. The second leg, Anastasia Dobromyslova. Game on.
:28:40. > :28:45.Deta Hedman will be cross with that. It was just the leg with the darts.
:28:45. > :28:55.Eventually, Anastasia Dobromyslova would have to hit a double,
:28:55. > :28:56.
:28:56. > :29:06.wouldn't she? It is serious business. Before she hit that, it
:29:06. > :29:06.
:29:06. > :29:51.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 125 seconds
:29:51. > :29:59.that will not be enough. Could give Anastasia Dobromyslova a bit of
:29:59. > :30:09.heart. They are a little bit convinced that Deta Hedman is going
:30:09. > :30:14.
:30:14. > :30:24.to be top dog in this one. That is why. A 140 just when she needed it.
:30:24. > :30:32.Just when she was under pressure. She did it previously when she hits
:30:32. > :30:42.that 180 at just the right time. lovely rhythm. She might have
:30:42. > :30:43.
:30:43. > :30:53.caught her hair on the Dart. Like a golfer at the top of their swing.
:30:53. > :30:55.
:30:55. > :31:05.Worth doing. She caught her hair. Anastasia Dobromyslova has taken
:31:05. > :31:10.
:31:10. > :31:17.precautions against that. Two tops for head of men -- Deta Hedman. She
:31:17. > :31:22.has missed counted here. She actually wanted 42. I think she has
:31:22. > :31:32.looked at the scorer and his explaining exactly what she has
:31:32. > :31:37.
:31:37. > :31:47.done. In this match that is possibly going to cost her. Never
:31:47. > :31:48.
:31:48. > :31:58.seen that before. Nine, double 16 to make her pay. She has made her
:31:58. > :32:04.
:32:04. > :32:09.pay. There is the Russian's swagger back. If looks could kill.
:32:09. > :32:14.Anastasia Dobromyslova would be called the a stash -- assassin. I
:32:14. > :32:24.have never seen in a World Championship match the scoreboards
:32:24. > :32:30.S42 and the player aims to double 16. -- the scoreboard it says 42.
:32:31. > :32:35.Understandable in the conditions. You just do not see it that often.
:32:35. > :32:45.The referee is not allowed to say anything. He just has to stand and
:32:45. > :32:48.
:32:48. > :32:53.watch. If a player asks then he could have given affirmative. It is
:32:53. > :32:59.like cricketers being out unless there is a peal -- an appeal.
:32:59. > :33:09.Martin thinks the momentum is swinging Anastasia Dobromyslova's
:33:09. > :33:17.
:33:17. > :33:26.way. It could be a seismic shift. Now she has got to put everything
:33:26. > :33:32.into it. Lucky for her she is a vastly experienced player. This is
:33:32. > :33:39.her first World Championship final. Third time here. Two semifinal
:33:39. > :33:43.defeat. Now I final. It does not seem to be a stage where she
:33:43. > :33:50.produces her best darts on. Anastasia Dobromyslova will know
:33:50. > :33:57.that. I do not think her work commitments have helped her. This
:33:57. > :34:02.week she had a week off to get herself in top condition. It has
:34:02. > :34:10.helped to with her darts and allowed her to play more. Anastasia
:34:10. > :34:13.Dobromyslova is a full-time darts player. Has not got a worry about
:34:13. > :34:23.sorting out to Christmas mail in the run-up to the World
:34:23. > :34:28.
:34:28. > :34:38.Championships. Only first class starts. Anastasia Dobromyslova, you
:34:38. > :34:42.
:34:42. > :34:52.require 148. Deta Hedman, you require 100. Hopefully she will not
:34:52. > :34:54.
:34:54. > :35:04.miss count on this. That leaves double top. Highest checkout of a
:35:04. > :35:12.
:35:12. > :35:19.she had the brain freeze early enough in the set that she could do
:35:19. > :35:29.something about it. Did you ever doubt that she would commit to that
:35:29. > :35:39.
:35:39. > :35:49.100? Never. We loved every minute afterwards. Deta Hedman is still
:35:49. > :35:55.
:35:55. > :35:59.comfortably clear of Anastasia Dobromyslova. 45. Here is a chance
:35:59. > :36:09.for Anastasia Dobromyslova to put some pressure, and she has done
:36:09. > :36:14.
:36:14. > :36:24.exactly that. It is her fifth one 40 of the match. What an unlucky
:36:24. > :36:34.deflection. Covered up nicely. She is reliant on the Russian to
:36:34. > :36:37.
:36:37. > :36:47.produce a loose throw. That is not happening. Really good scrapping
:36:47. > :36:51.
:36:51. > :36:57.from Anastasia Dobromyslova. She has won a world title. Deta Hedman
:36:57. > :37:07.was a what Master in 1994. There was no-one men's championship then.
:37:07. > :37:17.
:37:17. > :37:27.That was a top women's trophy in the world. -- no women. That will
:37:27. > :37:29.
:37:29. > :37:38.be to make the set. Anastasia Dobromyslova 120. It made it very
:37:38. > :37:47.tricky to do that. Double top now. She will put her name on this
:37:47. > :37:57.famous trophy. She needs treble 20, a single 20 and double 20. She
:37:57. > :38:00.
:38:00. > :38:08.still needs the treble. An unlucky deflection. And a stage show you
:38:08. > :38:17.require 20. This is for the 20. A double five for Anastasia
:38:17. > :38:27.Dobromyslova. She won that leg. She was on the brink of losing the
:38:27. > :38:35.
:38:35. > :38:43.final. She threw tremendous stroke Darts, 140. A nervous finish.
:38:43. > :38:51.crowd is getting the final that they wanted here. A close contest.
:38:51. > :38:55.Fabulous starts and now down to this final set now. The rhythmical
:38:55. > :39:05.Deta Hedman will not be rushed. She will play at her own pace and
:39:05. > :39:14.Tyrone game. Anastasia Dobromyslova, the big hit keener Russian has four
:39:14. > :39:18.it had -- the big hitting it Russian, has had a few doubles. She
:39:18. > :39:28.was under pressure early on as someone shouted out, you could see
:39:28. > :39:36.
:39:36. > :39:46.that she was not amused. I don't think that the announcer is very
:39:46. > :39:47.
:39:47. > :39:55.happy either, looking at someone with a steely glare in the audience.
:39:55. > :40:02.It is a good call for strictly come Dancing, not strictly come darting.
:40:02. > :40:06.And approval from Sharon Adams, she also picked up three darts for the
:40:06. > :40:16.first time ever and threw them at the board. She does not normally
:40:16. > :40:19.
:40:19. > :40:27.play. What if you score? I forget, but it was more than me. -- what
:40:27. > :40:37.did she score? Normally, Sharon Adams has a weekend of agony to
:40:37. > :40:38.
:40:38. > :40:45.look forward to. In a funny way, she can relax. I wonder if either
:40:45. > :40:53.of these two are relaxed up there. You rather sense that they are not.
:40:53. > :40:58.They are keeping their cool at the moment. Deta Hedman had a very nice
:40:58. > :41:02.checkout as her fingers are crossed for Anastasia Dobromyslova. She
:41:02. > :41:12.cannot finish, Sheikh must apply pressure or reduce aid broken
:41:12. > :41:25.
:41:25. > :41:35.throat. -- she must apply. -- reduce a broken throats. Anastasia
:41:35. > :41:41.
:41:41. > :41:51.Dobromyslova you require 90. Treble 15 for Deta Hedman. Deta Hedman now
:41:51. > :42:05.
:42:05. > :42:15.for double 10. Double 5. Note. That was a higher Dart. 164 double 16.
:42:15. > :42:21.
:42:21. > :42:31.That is the way she's going. -- 16 for double 16. This is for a break
:42:31. > :42:35.
:42:35. > :42:45.of throw. Another one. Anastasia Dobromyslova, you require 16.
:42:45. > :42:55.
:42:55. > :43:01.Hedman has had her chances. In the end, Anastasia Dobromyslova secures.
:43:01. > :43:11.A good last start to hold the throw. Deta Hedman did have chances to
:43:11. > :43:26.
:43:26. > :43:31.break. -- a good at last dart. It is the first to three legs. Both

:45:10. > :45:14.
:45:15. > :45:24.lakeside stage. A good first dart. Double 19. It was deflected the
:45:25. > :45:27.
:45:28. > :45:36.wrong way. It can be done in two darts. If the first one hits treble
:45:36. > :45:43.20, it will be treble 11. A Bulls side to hold the throne. -- a

:46:07. > :46:08.
:46:08. > :46:18.Now this match has swung round. From a set down, she is now a Lego

:46:48. > :46:58.winner. �2,000 for the runner-up. It is a big difference in prize-
:46:58. > :47:08.money. It adds to the pressure that the women are feeling. Deta Hedman
:47:08. > :47:14.
:47:14. > :47:24.blocked it. She is already 120 points behind. Now 128 points
:47:24. > :47:24.
:47:24. > :47:34.behind. That could be a bonus. It could be far worse. Just not

:47:42. > :47:49.set. Apart from that, it has not happened for her. It has been a

:47:59. > :48:09.world champion Deta Hedman. Her husband and her partner brought a

:48:22. > :48:32.balloon for her. Ton or 40 at just the right time. Deta Hedman must

:53:02. > :53:05.
:53:05. > :53:15.had to pull that out. It looked as though Deta Hedman had a victory in

:53:17. > :53:21.the palm of their hand. I never give up. That is my problem. And I
:53:21. > :53:26.am honest. I really respect deterred. She beat me the last
:53:26. > :53:32.couple of times. It was a hard game because I was playing against my
:53:32. > :53:37.friend. Your husband was living every arrow. The director was
:53:37. > :53:44.trying to find him. I think he was hiding at one stage because he was
:53:44. > :53:50.going through it with you. probably did not want the same
:53:50. > :53:52.result as last night. Did that they won a little bit? The fact that a
:53:52. > :54:00.few people thought he might have tried to slow the game down
:54:00. > :54:06.yesterday? Did that give you some motivation today? I just played my
:54:06. > :54:12.game. For whatever reason, people thought I should have lost, I just
:54:12. > :54:19.played my game and on the day and I was better. When you levelled at
:54:19. > :54:28.one all, you must have thought, now I'm back, I can definitely do this.
:54:28. > :54:36.I thought I am back. It is a little break for me. I can't describe it.
:54:36. > :54:41.It is amazing. It means a lot to me. Now to two place to shed a lifted
:54:41. > :54:48.this year's World Championship. Alan did -- Alan Chuck Norris put
:54:48. > :54:58.his foot down on the oche. What he forces Dutch passenger Christian

:54:58. > :55:44.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 125 seconds
:55:44. > :55:48.cased -- Christian Kist out? Always the last dart. Very good
:55:48. > :55:58.darts. This is exactly what he wanted after tossing away that last
:55:58. > :55:58.
:55:58. > :57:27.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 125 seconds
:57:27. > :57:37.doubles. Not a player can penetrate there. He has been getting some
:57:37. > :58:09.
:58:09. > :58:14.to the head of the Dutch federation. I said Christian Kist is the sort
:58:14. > :58:24.of player who might get a bit downhearted if things don't go his
:58:24. > :58:54.
:58:54. > :59:03.natural player. Nothing fazes him. 41. 42. Christian, you require 40.
:59:03. > :59:13.20. He has not hit a double for quite some time. Could Norris make
:59:13. > :59:21.
:59:21. > :59:31.him pay again? Another troubled -- double 20 leaves double 18. Double
:59:31. > :59:34.
:59:34. > :59:38.10. Three darts to do it in. that pressure and he is smiling.
:59:38. > :59:48.The two friends find time for a smile. It is a smile of relief I
:59:48. > :00:12.
:00:12. > :00:22.scoring power is there? Buries his dad? Is a round? -- is he and Brown
:00:22. > :00:39.
:00:39. > :00:49.here. That is in! Double 12! close we came to the second nine in
:00:49. > :00:59.
:00:59. > :01:09.darter. What a great ovation. say that Chuck Norris can do a nine
:01:09. > :01:12.
:01:12. > :01:20.and darter in one dark. Sadly it was the last dart that let him down.
:01:20. > :01:30.Forget that mixed double and take the leg. And there is a curse on
:01:30. > :01:45.
:01:45. > :01:55.this nine darter. 41. You require six. How many times have we seen
:01:55. > :01:59.
:01:59. > :02:09.this? It is unbelievable, it is happening all over again! Double
:02:09. > :02:09.
:02:09. > :02:59.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 125 seconds
:02:59. > :03:09.18! -- double 18 mac -- double 18 lot of 180s mac from him. This 180
:03:09. > :03:29.
:03:29. > :03:39.here... Nine darts, 47 left. That imagine in this match! Nothing has

:03:39. > :04:37.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 125 seconds
:04:37. > :04:44.throw in this set. High scores in Bullseye. He is going for the
:04:44. > :04:54.finish there. Even though Christian Kist is on 200, he decided it was
:04:54. > :04:56.
:04:56. > :05:05.the best way. Now he has got it. could be in trouble. Missing a big
:05:05. > :05:15.fat nine here. He has only missed a few doubles in 27 attempts.
:05:15. > :05:21.
:05:21. > :05:31.threw that awaited and teeth? -- he threw that a way didn't he? They
:05:31. > :05:39.are starting off brilliantly, they were dragged down by the weight of
:05:39. > :05:44.doubles that they were missing. There is no emotion from Christian
:05:44. > :05:54.Kist, nor from Alan Norris. They just go up there and throw their
:05:54. > :05:55.
:05:55. > :06:05.darts without a care in the war world -- world. There is an
:06:05. > :06:12.
:06:12. > :06:22.opportunity now for Alan Norris. That treble was quite handy for him.
:06:22. > :06:40.
:06:40. > :06:50.57. Double 20, at treble 18. Two double 20s for the man. He has gone
:06:50. > :06:57.
:06:57. > :07:05.10 double 8. Alan Norris came after the break -- came out after the
:07:05. > :07:11.break firing. I wonder whether Alan Norris is having problems with his
:07:11. > :07:17.back. He is requiring hit patches to be put onto his back. Do you
:07:17. > :07:25.think that the breakout seemed to recover? Does he struggle more
:07:25. > :07:33.because of that bad back? As we progressed through the match, he
:07:33. > :07:39.said it was more in the shoulder. Forget about your back and get on
:07:39. > :07:46.with it. He said it was very interesting trying to get out of
:07:46. > :07:54.bed the night after his big match. He said it that he had a lot of
:07:54. > :08:04.trouble doing it, and I said that you were not the only one. Making
:08:04. > :08:17.
:08:17. > :08:27.no impression on 154. That is his first big finish since he writes up
:08:27. > :08:32.
:08:32. > :08:42.the second set -- wraps up. Even if they jest MIS 180, it is just a
:08:42. > :08:50.
:08:50. > :09:00.fraction. -- even if they miss. Look at these. 180 is everywhere.
:09:00. > :09:11.
:09:11. > :09:21.With a good match. -- what a good. 100. That has blocked him surely.
:09:21. > :09:31.
:09:31. > :09:37.So 78, treble 18. He is OK. Alan Norris, 245. If Christian Kist
:09:37. > :09:47.takes up that double 12, it will be difficult. He can't afford to lose
:09:47. > :09:51.
:09:51. > :10:01.it. 13 darts Fort Christian Kist to take the lead. This now ports Alan
:10:01. > :10:13.
:10:13. > :10:17.Norris under pressure. What's a good game. -- what. A chance now,
:10:17. > :10:27.only 68 in a high-scoring match. You are trying to hold your throw
:10:27. > :10:30.
:10:30. > :10:40.it may be not be enough. This is where he must make a move. He is
:10:40. > :10:43.
:10:43. > :10:53.making it difficult for himself, only 59. He took six starts. A
:10:53. > :11:08.
:11:08. > :11:15.great shot to leave him on a finish. 167. 57. Christian you require 157.
:11:15. > :11:18.Alan Norris is still in with a chance. Dg notice him try to
:11:18. > :11:28.scratches Scholl dark and touch it a little bit? I think he is
:11:28. > :11:32.
:11:32. > :11:41.suffering a little bit. -- his shoulder. Brilliant first darts.
:11:41. > :11:51.Plenty of room for the next. Might be going back to the ball in to
:11:51. > :11:55.
:11:55. > :12:05.Darts time -- took the bull in two Darts time. That is said 0.4
:12:05. > :12:25.
:12:25. > :12:33.Christian Kist. It has been shot. - - set.. Set point. He is loving
:12:33. > :12:40.every minute of it. He is already in the semifinals, so he would love
:12:40. > :12:50.to play Christian Kist in the finals. In an old Dutch contest. --
:12:50. > :12:55.
:12:55. > :13:02.and all the Dutch. 135. Both of these players have hit 21 time 80s
:13:02. > :13:12.in the tournament so far. Christian Kist is two ahead. He has had 18 in
:13:12. > :13:12.
:13:12. > :13:22.this match so far. That shows you class when you can get cover shots
:13:22. > :13:30.
:13:30. > :13:39.like that. He is a road worker and build a bypass back to Holland in a
:13:39. > :13:49.few weeks. That was his former career. He has been in Spain for
:13:49. > :13:55.
:13:55. > :14:05.three years. He knows all about the bull. Alan Norris will throw a
:14:05. > :14:06.
:14:06. > :14:16.first. He just can't shake Christian Kist a way. He cannot
:14:16. > :14:25.
:14:25. > :14:34.break clear. Christian Kist keeps coming back. He has to win. He
:14:34. > :14:42.skyrocketed the averages. Christian Kist has 56% of the doubles. Still
:14:42. > :14:52.a 94% average. Alan Norris has a 92% average. That shows how could
:14:52. > :15:02.
:15:02. > :15:12.be scoring ears. You just have to miss a couple and it is surprising.
:15:12. > :15:24.
:15:24. > :15:34.-- how cool it the scoring is. Double 10. Double five. It was
:15:34. > :15:56.
:15:56. > :16:06.tricky. Treble 20, double 8. One to go. One they go away. -- won a Lake
:16:06. > :16:23.
:16:23. > :16:32.Kist. Christian Kist kicks off for 140, all eyes on him. It will be
:16:32. > :16:41.tense. Every chance of winning the title this year from what I have
:16:41. > :16:50.seen. He went all the way to the final and won it, I tell you that
:16:50. > :16:58.Christian Kist is playing very well, better than he did that here. --
:16:58. > :17:07.that year when he won the championships. Doing so well under
:17:07. > :17:17.pressure. His brother really helps him on his travels. You must feel a
:17:17. > :17:19.
:17:19. > :17:26.little bit sorry for Alan Norris, a 92% average and a few sets down.
:17:26. > :17:36.The reason is that his father choked under the pressure of a
:17:36. > :17:38.
:17:38. > :17:47.double. It looks like it is a set time. I really hope not. I would
:17:47. > :17:57.like to see Alan Norris take it all the way. This is for the match. 20
:17:57. > :18:02.
:18:02. > :18:08.double top. And he has got it. incredible. He is into the
:18:08. > :18:15.semifinals. This is his lakeside debut. He may not keep it a lift
:18:15. > :18:22.back home from Alan Norris, but he can afford his own taxi. What a
:18:22. > :18:27.champion in waiting this guy could be. Well it is always pure box-
:18:27. > :18:32.office where Ted Hankey is concerned. After his win against
:18:32. > :18:42.Scott weight, he arrives in confidence for his match again
:18:42. > :18:58.
:18:58. > :19:08.Martin Atkins. -- against. 134. 89. We have had eight legs in the match
:19:08. > :19:15.
:19:15. > :19:20.so far. Eight in a row and some to throw. Interestingly now, only five
:19:20. > :19:30.points overall difference in the averages. The scoring power of both
:19:30. > :19:36.
:19:36. > :19:44.players has a lot to go. Ted Hankey 85%, Martin Atkins 90%. He started
:19:44. > :19:54.to miss now. He is playing a steady game from start to finish. After
:19:54. > :20:01.
:20:01. > :20:07.knockout. He held records, but he doesn't mind mixing it in close,
:20:07. > :20:12.and that is what he has been doing this week. Anyone that says, "You
:20:12. > :20:22.just played a board" is a fool. He plays the opponents. You do enough
:20:22. > :20:25.
:20:25. > :20:35.to beat your opponent. If you can beat them at their own game, that's
:20:35. > :20:37.
:20:37. > :20:47.how you win a game of darts. That's how you win a leg of darts. Game on.
:20:47. > :20:48.
:20:48. > :20:54.Now, this is a big leg. Atkins away first. If he holds he'll level the
:20:54. > :21:04.match at one set all. There's always pressure to hold at 2-2,
:21:04. > :21:12.especially when you lose the first set. He started out alright. And
:21:12. > :21:18.that is 27. He could have well done without that at this moment. Martin
:21:18. > :21:23.Atkins, you have to say to yourself,, "How does he come up
:21:23. > :21:33.with anything to pressurise my throw? Is his scoring powerful
:21:33. > :21:45.
:21:45. > :21:55.enough to take a stronghold of a leg?"" you'd have to say no. They
:21:55. > :21:57.
:21:57. > :22:07.are over halfway through the leg, there's no separating them.
:22:07. > :22:21.
:22:21. > :22:28.dear, only 60. It's a sign to put in a 140, it's time. That's your
:22:28. > :22:38.experience set of three darts. Drawing on the reservoirs of
:22:38. > :22:43.
:22:43. > :22:48.experience. Single 20 now. Double 5 instead. Everything looked perfect.
:22:49. > :22:58.20 leads top. This is for the set, to level the match. Under all sorts
:22:59. > :23:05.
:23:05. > :23:15.of pressure. He's ow of practice. - - he's out of practice. It's the
:23:15. > :23:29.
:23:29. > :23:33.pressure. Ted Hankey is feeling the pressure too. This time maybe. It's
:23:33. > :23:43.where the reservoirs of experience. Good one to Ted Hankey, marching
:23:43. > :23:44.
:23:44. > :23:49.off the stage, two sets up against Martin Atkins. Saying, "I'm closer
:23:49. > :23:55.to you to the semi-- I'm closer than you to the semifinals". Ted
:23:55. > :24:02.Hankey with the darts. First of five remember, through to the
:24:02. > :24:08.semifinals. Ted Hankey is having a stroll and a walk to see if he can
:24:08. > :24:14.put another two into that. Might have been better to switch. He
:24:14. > :24:22.pulled up his trousers and gave his shoulders a role, straight back
:24:22. > :24:32.into it again. So little between the two players. It wouldn't take
:24:32. > :24:42.much for Martin Atkins to get back into the game, unless - what a fine
:24:42. > :24:42.
:24:42. > :24:52.darts player he is. That in his first 180 of the match. We are
:24:52. > :24:57.
:24:57. > :25:04.about to see a few more. There's still plenty in it. He won't care
:25:04. > :25:10.how he wins, as long as he does win. He plays the mat rather than the
:25:10. > :25:15.ball. That indicates to me that he doesn't believe in his own talent
:25:15. > :25:25.quite as much. He can't quite believe he has done that. That is
:25:25. > :25:33.
:25:33. > :25:43.63 scored. It's a wonderful cover. All Atkins can do is pile on
:25:43. > :25:54.
:25:54. > :26:04.pressure. That's what he's doing. He's on the phone,. He can make him
:26:04. > :26:16.
:26:16. > :26:25.pay for that now. Once again doing just enough. Living dangerously.
:26:25. > :26:30.Six out of six. Nice throw. perfect chance. The last dart
:26:30. > :26:40.aiming for double 16. The double 7 is an arm that is far too tense and
:26:40. > :26:55.
:26:55. > :27:05.not relaxed enough. He smashed at it. He can't keep his eyes off this
:27:05. > :27:30.
:27:30. > :27:40.one. We've had 11 legs of darts and great darts supporter. It's a good
:27:40. > :27:49.
:27:49. > :27:54.excuse. Perhaps he didn't take advantage then. He's left himself
:27:54. > :27:59.on the finish. There could have been a much better finish.
:27:59. > :28:08.would think he's done it deliberately. You'd think he'd be
:28:08. > :28:18.used to exhibitions all the time. He's used to hitting them. Off the
:28:18. > :28:18.
:28:18. > :28:28.wire it came. It was all over the shop. Still, Martin Atkins with the
:28:28. > :28:34.
:28:34. > :28:44.show. He can't afford to be broken here. A chance for Ted Hankey. He
:28:44. > :28:52.
:28:52. > :28:57.has to find the treble 20 bed. He's not happy. Lights, the heat. He
:28:57. > :29:06.didn't look at Ted Hankey, he just focused on the score board. I'm not
:29:06. > :29:16.sure if Tom Jones summoned that stage, but it's certainly, "Not
:29:16. > :29:25.
:29:25. > :29:35.unusual" for Ted to be up there. Bullseye for atkm/h. Still on. That
:29:35. > :29:52.
:29:52. > :30:02.was going straight in there. needs double 2, he does need it.
:30:02. > :30:11.
:30:11. > :30:21.He's done just enough, once again. Such a close contest with Martin
:30:21. > :30:41.
:30:41. > :30:49.Atkins finding himself 2-0 down. needs a few doubles. It's no
:30:49. > :30:57.laughing matter for the other player there. Defending here. Both
:30:57. > :31:07.are dragging each other down. I don't know about golden balls, but
:31:07. > :31:14.
:31:14. > :31:20.we need some golden darts. Who is he talking to. Picking his dart up.
:31:20. > :31:30.If he's talking to himself, he's not listening. Four visits for Ted
:31:30. > :31:34.
:31:34. > :31:43.Hankey, trying for the set. So far it's 43, 41, 41. That was the 200th
:31:43. > :31:53.180 in the tournament. Ted can't believe it. He's got all the rotten
:31:53. > :31:57.
:31:57. > :32:07.luck in the world. He's got to break him here. Ted Hankey back on
:32:07. > :32:19.
:32:19. > :32:25.237. He wasn't really caring at all. That's exactly what the assassin
:32:25. > :32:35.ordered. You won't have a an easier leg all year, certainly not against
:32:35. > :32:52.
:32:52. > :32:58.the darts. He doesn't throw the bats into the crowd any more.
:32:58. > :33:08.lost the cape, the bat. The only thing that remains is mum and dad -
:33:08. > :33:12.
:33:12. > :33:19.ever constant at every tournament. It's the famous stage, but they all
:33:19. > :33:29.work so hard to play on. That's our man. Taking out all the doubles for
:33:29. > :33:35.
:33:35. > :33:45.you. Reactions like lightning. Ted Hankey on a finish. This is for a
:33:45. > :33:57.
:33:57. > :34:01.3-set lead. Here we go. Several 14s. Just have to adjust a little dit.
:34:01. > :34:11.It's not really add -- a little bit. It's not really adding up clear.
:34:11. > :34:19.
:34:19. > :34:26.He's a long way clear. 20 for double 16, or 12 for tops. Yes. Two
:34:26. > :34:36.sets away now, Ted Hankey. For a place in the semifinal. Has Martin
:34:36. > :34:43.
:34:43. > :34:53.Atkins got an answer? Not at the moment. Swapped away. His ninth
:34:53. > :34:57.
:34:57. > :35:07.quarterfinal. It's one of theeesiest so far, despite throwing
:35:07. > :35:17.
:35:18. > :35:27.sloppy darts in stages. Nothing sloppy about those. Martin Atkins
:35:28. > :35:33.
:35:33. > :35:43.up, down, through the middle. Ted Hankey slotting them in nicely.
:35:43. > :35:51.
:35:52. > :36:01.Gets himself a 140 finish. It's 170 to win the title. Having a nice
:36:02. > :36:02.
:36:02. > :36:10.hour of darts. It's great to see. Another treble for Martin Atkins to
:36:10. > :36:17.pressure the 90s. Well done. This is for a break of throw. He's
:36:17. > :36:27.trying to pull double top. He's double 10. Any way you like.
:36:27. > :36:32.
:36:32. > :36:39.Brilliant. The brilliance of Ted Hankey. It's illuminating. I'm not
:36:39. > :36:47.quite sure if it's the third. Yes, it is. He said, "Oh, is it my turn
:36:47. > :36:57.to throw first? OK then, thanks." You don't think he did that
:36:57. > :37:07.
:37:07. > :37:13.deliberately, do you? Rare first- time finish. 90% for Atkins on his
:37:13. > :37:23.doubles. 0.5. Speaking to Martin Atkins before the match and we were
:37:23. > :37:30.saying, you know, for the first time, "I acquitted myself well on
:37:30. > :37:35.the Lakeside stage.", "I was desperate to do that and it's the
:37:35. > :37:45.Friday." It he looks like a man who was satisfied. Never be satisfied
:37:45. > :37:48.
:37:48. > :37:55.until the second Sunday night when you have silverware on your hand.
:37:55. > :38:05.If he loses this match from here you'll wonder how he could let it
:38:05. > :38:06.
:38:06. > :38:14.get to that stage. Despite the odd flashes, he is easily beatable if
:38:14. > :38:20.you can swing consistent darts together. When it gets to a brawl
:38:20. > :38:26.up on the Lakeside stage, there are few better than Ted Hankey. I'm not
:38:26. > :38:36.saying there's bad feeg at all. Not a brawl -- feeling at all, not a
:38:36. > :38:44.brawl like that, a darting brawl. That's what he has to do. Not point
:38:44. > :38:54.hitting the 140 if you don't take out the 61. You make it easier for
:38:54. > :39:02.
:39:02. > :39:09.yourself. Hasn't done enough legs so far. Sara is still nervous.
:39:09. > :39:19.would you living with Ted Hankey. He's forced his way back into this
:39:19. > :39:37.
:39:37. > :39:47.set now. Oh, dear, only 81. Ted Hankey with back to back 140s. He's
:39:47. > :39:49.
:39:49. > :39:55.turning up the heat. Just drives in enough in this leg to remind him
:39:55. > :40:01.what he could be dealing against when he's in the mood. With the
:40:01. > :40:11.last leg, Ted Hankey could break back. Tops for Ted Hankey.
:40:11. > :40:15.
:40:15. > :40:25.Brilliant. Leaves him on the brink of a 4-0 lead, and he has the darts.
:40:25. > :40:31.And he's back in the treble 20 bed. You can punch Martin Atkins very
:40:31. > :40:37.hard in the stomach at the moment, and it wouldn't hurt as much as the
:40:37. > :40:41.last 14 darts of Ted Hankey would have hurt him. Sparkling stuff from
:40:41. > :40:45.the double World Champion. Just when Martin Atkins thinks I will
:40:45. > :40:52.throw myself back into contention, it's like someone flicked a switch
:40:52. > :40:58.in his brain, everything stews together and he remembers. He's
:40:58. > :41:07.hard to beat. You feel that he'll do just enough. He did it in Round
:41:07. > :41:12.1, Round 2 and is doing it tonight. He's not running a marathon, it's
:41:12. > :41:19.not like he's got to preserve energy here. I've never seen him
:41:19. > :41:27.wear trainers or attempt to run a marathon. He should go out and play
:41:27. > :41:37.to the best of his ability, send out a warning sign. It is Friday
:41:37. > :41:54.
:41:54. > :41:59.the 13th, his lucky day, isn't it. Ted Hankey, and Mrs Ted Hankey. I
:41:59. > :42:06.tell you what, Martin Atkins looks like he could do with someone
:42:06. > :42:16.passing him a hangy. Any more of this and he'll be wiped out. He
:42:16. > :42:30.
:42:30. > :42:37.those numbers where there's no possible outshot. So much force in
:42:37. > :42:46.the last dart. He's not finding a rhythm at all. Single 20, double 20
:42:46. > :42:55.for the set. It's like someone has just nicked mum's bingo money the
:42:55. > :43:05.way mum reacted there. Single now for Martin Atkins. Bullseye. It is
:43:05. > :43:08.
:43:08. > :43:13.for hanky. It's going according to plan. Ted Hankey finds the double 5,
:43:13. > :43:21.and he's one set away from what he needs to reach the semifinal. Ted
:43:21. > :43:31.Hankey leads 4-0. He's never won a quarterfinal without dropping a set.
:43:31. > :43:31.
:43:31. > :43:41.He has been on the receiving end of a comeback. A couple of years ago
:43:41. > :44:04.
:44:04. > :44:10.match. Both players losing power on their scoring. Good times for Ted
:44:10. > :44:17.Hankey to get a 180. A lovely time to follow it as well. The darts in
:44:17. > :44:22.the set makes life comfortable as well, doesn't it. 65 and 324. He
:44:22. > :44:32.may as well have a little lie down on the sofa. That's how comfortable
:44:32. > :44:36.
:44:36. > :44:45.it is in this set. Six darts. From 65, double 10. We'll be back.
:44:45. > :44:55.Interesting he didn't go 25 tops. He obviously feels comfortable
:44:55. > :45:01.
:45:01. > :45:10.around double 10. Can't sit still, pacing around. Ted Hankey wins
:45:10. > :45:18.another one. So far it is the procession from hanky. Has Atkins
:45:18. > :45:28.got any after. This isn't the Martin Atkins we saw in the first
:45:28. > :45:35.
:45:35. > :45:45.two rounds. He's not as if van de Wiel played worse. They don't have
:45:45. > :45:55.
:45:55. > :46:05.the same form. Martin Atkins managed to find it. Maybe she is
:46:05. > :46:11.
:46:11. > :46:21.lucky Liz. If he wins the leg he has to find a way to get past the
:46:21. > :46:38.
:46:38. > :46:48.Ted Hankey defences. Here is another one. There's no hidden
:46:48. > :46:53.
:46:53. > :47:03.nightmares in 126. That's unlucky. Not only is it a bit unlucky, it's
:47:03. > :47:12.
:47:12. > :47:22.dropped down a little box. The referee out to retrieve it. Only a
:47:22. > :47:26.
:47:26. > :47:35.willing with the darts for Martin Atkins. It doesn't take a lot.
:47:35. > :47:45.doesn't take a lot to upset Ted Hankey, but that will do it. He has
:47:45. > :47:52.
:47:52. > :48:02.the weight of the world against him. He's trying to laugh it off. 39 and
:48:02. > :48:03.
:48:03. > :48:13.42. It's a big chance for Martin Atkins. He's found his first dart
:48:13. > :48:19.and the second. Can Martin Atkins breach the Ted Hankey defences.
:48:19. > :48:28.He's brought the military arsenal. Ted Hankey is developing his castle
:48:28. > :48:38.with liquid blamange at the moment. Is this what we need for a turning
:48:38. > :48:38.
:48:38. > :48:48.point? Alright, that's because he hasn't left. Ted Hankey on 23, but
:48:48. > :49:02.
:49:02. > :49:10.not for long. That's OK from Atkins. 68. Two dart checkout. He's got to
:49:10. > :49:17.make a good impression. It's treble 20 for double four, to break the
:49:17. > :49:26.throw. 25 leads double top. Treble 19 leads double 4. Oh, he's on the
:49:26. > :49:34.board now. Martin Atkins. That's the sort of finish. Turns up. Finds
:49:34. > :49:42.the target. He took a gamble. If he missed the treble. He would have
:49:42. > :49:52.been on a double. Suddenly the real Martin Atkins is starting to turn
:49:52. > :50:16.
:50:16. > :50:26.up. Ted Hankey struggling to find the treble. One treble with six
:50:26. > :50:39.
:50:39. > :50:49.darts this leg so far. Good. It's from here that Martin Atkins has
:50:49. > :51:05.
:51:05. > :51:09.the control. Loves to get down to a two dart shot. Close, but no banana.
:51:09. > :51:15.First set of the match. He had chances that he hasn't taken.
:51:15. > :51:24.Treble 20, double 18. If he can convert, but I don't think the
:51:24. > :51:34.second one is. Treble 20. Can't be done. That was a little casual from
:51:34. > :51:36.
:51:36. > :51:46.Ted Hankey. Ted Hankey chatting, Martin Atkins focused. He's got a
:51:46. > :51:54.
:51:54. > :52:00.double 10. No time to celebrate on stage. The Hankey family thought it
:52:00. > :52:10.might be time to put the kettle on for a cup of cocoa, has a bit more
:52:10. > :52:11.
:52:11. > :52:21.time to watch the darts. If he can fold here, he'll need to break
:52:21. > :52:39.
:52:39. > :52:49.again. Small steps. Two legs away from the match. It all looks a
:52:49. > :52:52.
:52:52. > :53:02.different game at the moment. Even though hanky is not in that much
:53:02. > :53:09.
:53:09. > :53:19.bother, he's on the receiving end. If he can win this or the next step,
:53:19. > :53:20.
:53:20. > :53:30.he'll be very much on target. That's a good sign to throw in a
:53:30. > :53:37.
:53:37. > :53:47.140. 90 when he returns. 101 away from a break of throw. Oh, dear.
:53:47. > :53:53.
:53:53. > :54:03.He's a little bit too low down on his next target as well. 52 scores.
:54:03. > :54:08.
:54:08. > :54:18.20s, 19s, and 18s. Can't be done. Hankey won't care. Martin Atkins
:54:18. > :54:43.
:54:43. > :54:53.was retrieving his flight that had he's going. That wasn't close.
:54:53. > :54:54.
:54:54. > :55:04.There's a big shout out. Good dart from Ted Hankey. Almost let Martin
:55:04. > :55:19.
:55:19. > :55:29.Atkins in. Under pressure. The majority of this match. Ted Hankey
:55:29. > :55:41.
:55:41. > :55:51.two legs away once again. Treble 20. Covering up Martin Atkins. Heading
:55:51. > :55:52.
:55:52. > :56:02.to the treble 19. Martin Atkins is not throwing enough so far. Not
:56:02. > :56:09.
:56:09. > :56:19.what he did on the previous set. It's a good time to start. That's a
:56:19. > :56:25.
:56:25. > :56:35.good dart. 180. That's what great dart players do. They brush off any
:56:35. > :56:39.
:56:39. > :56:49.resistance. Double shot. Double 10. He rushs all these. Gives him and
:56:49. > :56:55.
:56:55. > :57:05.he's completed the job in the next. Martin Atkins bashed straight back
:57:05. > :57:06.
:57:06. > :57:16.in with it. He lays the darts low like a river meandering through a
:57:16. > :57:18.
:57:18. > :57:25.gorgeous valley, heading towards the rapids. More like the Euphrates,
:57:25. > :57:34.meandering through the fiery depths of hell. It's just gentle. And then
:57:34. > :57:37.he just rushes as we head towards the ongoing rocks and plunges in
:57:37. > :57:47.dissent. I wish Ted Hankey would take to the fast water a bit more
:57:47. > :57:59.
:57:59. > :58:09.often. 321 is all he needs. He'll be back. This will be lovely,
:58:09. > :58:25.
:58:25. > :58:35.however he goes in. Are these the last three darts at Lakeside 2012.
:58:35. > :58:37.
:58:37. > :58:45.Double 8 for Ted Hankey. With a shake of the head. The Count is
:58:45. > :58:49.barely troubled as he reaches the last board. It's his lucky day.
:58:49. > :58:59.Reaching the semifinal for the fourth time at the Lakeside. In the
:58:59. > :59:00.
:59:00. > :59:04.end, when it came, it was swift and no mercy for Martin Atkins. And
