Good evening. They fought at Lakeside seas of the dream take a

:00:38.:00:42.

step closer to reality for the chosen few as the second round

:00:42.:00:45.

begins in earnest. Alan chuck Norris knows what it takes to reach

:00:45.:00:50.

the quarterfinals as he did so 12 months ago, but so did his Dutch

The crowd is a little bit quiet at the moment, but once at the

:03:23.:03:53.

The family watched on, as always. His brother Matthew is here. Alan's

nieces are here. They are cheering on Uncle Alan, they hope, to a

world as well. He has lived in Sweden, Spain, and was living in

Scotland. Now he has gone back to Ireland. Not bad for a boy from

:06:46.:06:56.
:06:56.:07:16.

Wesley Harms. That will do his confidence a world of good. It has

been acknowledged by his opponent practice and more championships,

:08:19.:08:22.

playing better players, but everyone who comes from Holland,

:08:23.:08:32.
:08:33.:09:10.

125, 121, brilliant! This is magic! After a slow start, some brilliant

finishing from Wesley Harms. England opened this year. He is

:09:37.:09:47.
:09:47.:09:50.

also the International Open champion of 2011. He is hoping to

:09:50.:09:59.

beat England in the second round today in the form of Alan Norris.

:09:59.:10:09.
:10:09.:10:09.

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 70 seconds

Between the two of them so far, For the set, it is double two. For

:11:02.:11:12.
:11:12.:11:15.

a 1-0 lead, double one. One more shot. Wesley Harms Back to win a

:11:15.:11:23.

third successful leg. Double 15 to finish it off. That grimmest. I

:11:23.:11:33.
:11:33.:12:05.

Norris has the early advantage. He did win the set with the darts.

:12:05.:12:10.

Everything has been going around about the houses. They have

:12:10.:12:20.
:12:20.:12:20.

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 70 seconds

:12:20.:13:24.

finish is bigger than this already. 16 for double top. Not this time.

:13:24.:13:34.
:13:34.:13:45.

First leg, second set, double 10. taken against the darts as well.

:13:45.:13:51.

Allen is in good form. I think they suit each other with the speed of

:13:51.:14:01.
:14:01.:14:13.

parole. Similar stance, similar throw their -- similar throw. Alan

:14:13.:14:23.
:14:23.:14:23.

Norris lost in the final. But he is in really good form. He has been

:14:23.:14:33.
:14:33.:15:09.

first 180 in the match. Norris is on a Shanghai again. Still for

:15:09.:15:19.
:15:19.:15:30.

here. He needs double 18 for a 147. He is considering his options. He

:15:30.:15:36.

has played it brilliantly. Straight into that double 18. 147 finish for

:15:36.:15:46.
:15:46.:16:19.

Wesley Harms. It levels of the set going through. There we are. -- the

:16:19.:16:29.
:16:29.:17:05.

the match. He is getting the applause. We expected a thriller.

:17:05.:17:15.
:17:15.:17:17.

There we go again. Treble 17. That is unusual. He went for travel 13

:17:17.:17:27.
:17:27.:17:53.

there, but only hit the six. -- steadies himself him. Always a

:17:53.:18:00.

calculated risk when you are on 50. He went for 18, double 16. It meant

:18:00.:18:05.

that he only had one shot rather than two. It completely vindicated

:18:05.:18:11.

his faith in himself of being able to hit that double 16. This is

:18:11.:18:19.

turning into a classic. Scoring is absolutely brilliant. Can't fault

:18:19.:18:29.
:18:29.:18:29.

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 70 seconds

:18:29.:20:01.

three legs have gone against the is the one. Everything looking up

:20:01.:20:11.
:20:11.:20:16.

check-up is significantly worse. But he has had three times as many

:20:16.:20:26.
:20:26.:20:43.

shots at a double. As a result, he seed. I think he did really well to

:20:43.:20:47.

keep his mind on the job with everything else going on. His focus

:20:47.:20:57.
:20:57.:20:59.

and application. That was significant in the previous match.

:20:59.:21:03.

Alan Norris started a slow leak as he had a few problems with his

:21:03.:21:13.
:21:13.:21:41.

six. His finishing has been excellent book that has let him

with the first. This will going, dart leg for Alan Norris, but he

:23:12.:23:22.
:23:22.:23:24.

can't hit it either. This is what disrupts the averages. 11. Right in

:23:24.:23:34.
:23:34.:23:46.

first leg of the final back in 2000. Some early nerves there. You have

:23:46.:23:54.

got a good memory. I haven't got a good memory, I have a good Oracle's

:23:54.:24:04.
:24:04.:24:29.

bit of advice? Well, I hope he gets his wish. I think he needs looking

:24:29.:24:39.
:24:39.:24:46.

afternoon, don't forget. He is taking charge of the match now,

:24:47.:24:56.
:24:57.:25:18.

nice shot that would have been. That is one that Norris hit in his

:25:18.:25:28.
:25:28.:25:31.

first-round match. This time it is 47. He is looking at double 16.

:25:31.:25:41.
:25:41.:25:41.

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 70 seconds

:25:41.:26:30.

88402-0 lead in the third. -- far. That is a good first start.

:26:30.:26:40.

Ride in the middle. Wesley Harms 96 and 60 before this throw. But this

:26:40.:26:50.
:26:50.:26:51.

looks good. It is kind of a Dutch Derby. Alan Norris is playing under

:26:51.:26:55.

the English flag but living in Holland. And we have a Dutch

:26:55.:27:05.
:27:05.:27:06.

referee as well. He has lived all over the world, Allen has. Last

:27:06.:27:16.
:27:16.:27:44.

last. Brilliant. Takes the set 2-1 in sets. What a time to take out a

:27:44.:27:48.

150. His fourth three-figure checkout of the match. He still

:27:48.:27:57.

trails 2-1. It is now 2-1, rather than 2-0. He's won all three legs

:27:57.:28:04.

since the break. Same problem for Alan Norris that he had in the game

:28:04.:28:09.

against Wayne Warren. His shoulder just tightened up a little during

:28:09.:28:19.
:28:19.:28:21.

the 3-4 minutes that they had off stage. It's happening again here.

:28:21.:28:28.

Not a very good start to this leg. After all the big finishes, and

:28:28.:28:35.

they are 125, 121, 147 and 150 - it's the trip to the mad house

:28:35.:28:40.

where he saw off Alan Norris with a double 1. It could be very

:28:40.:28:45.

significant. That gave him the first leg of the first set - having

:28:45.:28:55.
:28:55.:28:55.

come from behind him. Trailling by a set. Wesley Harms still trailling

:28:55.:29:04.

by a set. More potters than a room of Stoke City fans all in tribute

:29:04.:29:14.
:29:14.:29:15.

to the man who runs the Lakeside. I bet they can't remember when they

:29:15.:29:25.
:29:25.:29:41.

was at The Palace. It's a brilliant finish from Harms. This will be the

:29:41.:29:48.

best of the lot. Bullseye for a 170. You would not believe in the form

:29:48.:29:58.
:29:58.:30:10.

he's been in. There's a shot here. 25 - so a double 8. Running away

:30:10.:30:20.
:30:20.:30:26.

now. Still trailling 2-1 though. Alan is really shook up. Four legs

:30:26.:30:35.

in a row for the electrician. He's found his spark, found his rhythm.

:30:35.:30:45.
:30:45.:30:47.

The crowd is standing once again. I'm enjoying this one, Jim. I'm

:30:47.:30:57.
:30:57.:31:30.

leading here. Three darts. A chance for Alan to step in here now. 60

:31:30.:31:37.

points behind. He can get that with one dart. He's not happy up there

:31:37.:31:46.

at the moment. He's a tidy poker player by reputation, Alan Norris.

:31:46.:31:54.

His facial expressions belying the frustration he is feeling at the

:31:54.:32:04.
:32:04.:32:06.

moment. He's a poker player - you can tell he's not happy. How

:32:06.:32:16.
:32:16.:32:18.

quickly it changes. A treble 18. He's going for the ball again.

:32:18.:32:28.
:32:28.:32:33.

Three double top. Double 10 now. The speed merchant. 15 or seven.

:32:33.:32:42.

That leaves double 12. That's the first phase of this game - 2-1.

:32:42.:32:52.
:32:52.:32:53.

He's a leg away from taking the next two sets, tying it up at 2-2.

:32:53.:33:03.
:33:03.:33:05.

It certainly changes. Describe the match. Superheroes all around,

:33:05.:33:15.
:33:15.:33:46.

wherever you look. Treble 18 again. He's taking it out. He's good with

:33:46.:33:56.
:33:56.:34:12.

figures. Another 20. I hope he's not taking a vow of silence. Even

:34:12.:34:19.

the most devout member of the brotherhood would struggle to keep

:34:19.:34:29.
:34:29.:34:37.

still here at the Lakeside. We are not flying tonight. It's a

:34:37.:34:43.

dangerous thing, his lead melting away, Alan Norris. Put that in your

:34:43.:34:53.
:34:53.:34:53.

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 70 seconds

:34:53.:35:49.

finish. He's still leading 2-1 in sets. Wesley can take that. Picking

:35:49.:35:59.
:35:59.:36:09.

off - in big trouble. This is a good one. It's a finish - long 6-1.

:36:09.:36:16.

Last spare dart from Harms, treble 20 leads double 17. That's bullseye,

:36:16.:36:22.

but you can't get parity on a number of legs. He will be back

:36:22.:36:30.

having a go at 2050. Wesley on the pitch - he has six. Yes, double 8

:36:30.:36:40.
:36:40.:36:41.

if he wants it. There it is. Good leg there for Alan Norris. Two in a

:36:41.:36:51.
:36:51.:37:06.

row for Alan Norris, after losing the previous four. Every leg

:37:06.:37:11.

crucial. Some clearly more crucial than others. A massive difference

:37:11.:37:21.
:37:21.:37:21.

between a 3-1 lead to Norris, and 2-2. And the last leg. We'll take a

:37:21.:37:31.
:37:31.:37:31.

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 70 seconds

:37:31.:38:21.

short break. 2-2 in sets. Still a thinking. That was good thinking.

:38:21.:38:28.

Couple of double 20s. That's a better one for Wesley. Treble 20

:38:28.:38:38.
:38:38.:38:40.

leads double 8. 2-2. Double 4. Wesley. Looks to the heavens. Alan

:38:40.:38:47.

Norris looks to the score board and senses his opportunity. Double top

:38:47.:38:57.
:38:57.:38:59.

for 3-1, and he can't take advantage either. Oh, deer. Good

:38:59.:39:09.
:39:09.:39:33.

knock. What an opportunity. Which way are you going to go, Alan.

:39:33.:39:43.
:39:43.:39:48.

Wesley looks at double 4, double 2. One more shot at double 2. The last

:39:48.:39:58.
:39:58.:40:17.

one was 85, I thought, but it was 20, back to 20 now. He's hit double

:40:17.:40:27.
:40:27.:40:30.

1 once, and needs to hit it again. Wesley Harms hits a double in the

:40:30.:40:40.
:40:40.:40:42.

decisive leg of the fourth set. had chances. He had lots of chances

:40:42.:40:51.

to make it 3-1. Instead, it's two apiece. You would think that that

:40:51.:40:59.

would put the momentum back with Wesley harms. If he wins this leg

:40:59.:41:09.
:41:09.:41:17.

he'll be ahead for the first time in the game. He's gone ahead. Yes.

:41:17.:41:27.
:41:27.:41:42.

Plenty of room. 2-0 up. Yes, three 140s. Two from Harms, one from

:41:42.:41:52.
:41:52.:41:56.

Norris. What a good leg this is. 136 left. He's there again. There's

:41:56.:42:06.
:42:06.:42:06.

been a run of them. Lucky. He has a little bit to do here. This is with

:42:06.:42:16.
:42:16.:42:17.

the throw, the first leg in the fifth set. Excellent pressure

:42:18.:42:27.
:42:28.:42:31.

applied as Wesley Harms goes for double 4. He leads for the first

:42:31.:42:41.
:42:41.:42:52.

time in the match. 4-2 finish to take that leg. Now in the lead.

:42:52.:43:02.

Coming from behind and leading now in the match. It's critical, for

:43:02.:43:12.
:43:12.:43:37.

the first time. There's a little bit to do here. Facing the treble

:43:37.:43:43.

20, but they decide to go the -- their own way in the finish. In a

:43:43.:43:52.

very idioSinn accurateic way, getting down from -- idiosyncratic

:43:52.:44:02.
:44:02.:44:21.

way, getting down from 501. We get the first time again. The highest

:44:22.:44:31.
:44:32.:44:38.

checkout of the week, 158. Leaves himself 100. Not the best on the

:44:39.:44:48.
:44:49.:44:54.

ball. It's now eight legs out of the last 10 that Wesley Harms won.

:44:55.:45:01.

He had nine and 11 in the first round against Rohit David. I don't

:45:01.:45:10.

know why he couldn't challenge him for this title. He's getting better

:45:10.:45:20.
:45:20.:45:46.

every time I see him. 60 point ahead is Norris. He might be better

:45:46.:45:56.
:45:56.:46:07.

switching. There we go. 95. Leaves a 170. All these thought-out. That

:46:07.:46:17.
:46:17.:46:34.

changes the scenario a bit. 8th of the game. That's the first set. He

:46:34.:46:44.
:46:44.:46:49.

has to win this one. First to fall at the moment. Done well in this

:46:49.:46:59.
:46:59.:47:07.

set. He stuck around last year, Alan Norris played Dean Stanley,

:47:07.:47:13.

trailling 3-1 and came back in the break. He knows very few positions

:47:13.:47:19.

are insurmountable for him. He may be a little frustrated that it's

:47:19.:47:24.

proven to be more difficult than anticipated at that point. He has

:47:25.:47:34.
:47:35.:47:53.

got a second wind. That's all it takes. 163. Not the time you would

:47:53.:48:03.
:48:03.:48:06.

have anticipated in throwing that. That's a 116. 13 for double 8,

:48:06.:48:13.

double 4 to tie it up at 2-2. He's bust. Just the wrong side of the

:48:13.:48:23.
:48:23.:48:43.

wire. 3-2 lead in sets. That's the way. Wesley Harms lost the flight.

:48:43.:48:53.
:48:53.:49:01.

I must apologise. Double 8 is the marker. It's double 10 for Wesley

:49:01.:49:11.
:49:11.:49:15.

Harms. Now double 5. He leads 3 sets to 2. Coming back from 2-0

:49:15.:49:25.
:49:25.:49:41.

down. So we know the quality now of this young man from Alkmar. Well,

:49:41.:49:45.

let me tell you, Snow White is nowhere to be seen here. They have

:49:45.:49:50.

got the night off, those two. It's the other five doing the work for

:49:50.:50:00.
:50:00.:50:17.

them. I thought they were real. Let's be fair here. Stop the press

:50:17.:50:27.
:50:27.:50:37.

- three more have escaped. under the table. Standing on a box.

:50:37.:50:46.

Good finish at 76. All sorted out mentally, I think. Treble 20,

:50:46.:50:56.
:50:56.:51:19.

double 8. Alan Norris is really in trouble now. So many challenges in

:51:19.:51:29.
:51:29.:51:50.

the match. Definitely not giving in. He's in trul. -- he's in trouble.

:51:50.:51:59.

Three successive double 100s for Alan Norris in this leg. Margin for

:51:59.:52:09.
:52:09.:52:27.

error. This is consistency. Four 100s on the trot. It's a 1-1.

:52:27.:52:31.

Double 20 for Harms. He now can't finish. Alan Norris will get back

:52:31.:52:41.

with a look at 52. Good pressure. Double 18. This is massive for Alan

:52:41.:52:51.
:52:51.:53:07.

Norris. They can't get much closer in this game. They could well go

:53:07.:53:17.
:53:17.:53:29.

all the way. I think Alan wants to finish it now. Great play from

:53:29.:53:39.
:53:39.:53:39.

Harms, back from 140. 265 before. They have to try to get the 19.

:53:39.:53:49.
:53:49.:54:12.

Leave themselves 170. They can get five of them. 179. Now is his

:54:12.:54:22.
:54:22.:54:22.

chance. He has the opportunity. Harms is on the finish for 167.

:54:22.:54:29.

He's taken some big shots out. Treble 19 he's looking at now. It's

:54:29.:54:39.
:54:39.:54:44.

the bullseye for a sensational 167. Not quite. OK great here - a good

:54:44.:54:54.
:54:54.:55:02.

save. It's double 16. Double 8, double 8 it is. Double 4. Alan

:55:02.:55:12.
:55:12.:55:12.

Norris is walking behind him. He knew he had a chance. He has two

:55:12.:55:20.

darts to do it now. Absolutely crucial that he did. Harms having

:55:20.:55:25.

three shots at a double which would have taken him within one leg of

:55:25.:55:35.
:55:35.:55:39.

victory. Holding the darts essential for him here. He was

:55:39.:55:49.
:55:49.:55:50.

leading there in the earlier part. Coming back like he has done. A

:55:50.:56:00.
:56:00.:56:05.

little dropcy. OK. May be in trouble here He needs one leg to

:56:05.:56:15.
:56:15.:56:17.

square the match. I think he deserves to go all the way. There's

:56:17.:56:25.

very little between the pair at the moment. He's giving himself a

:56:25.:56:35.
:56:35.:56:47.

fantastic chance. 62 left. Can't finish now. Harms can. Absolutely

:56:47.:56:51.

crucial for Alan Norris that he hits a double 16 here. Three darts.

:56:51.:57:01.

The first is a decent marker. Getting nervous now. There's three

:57:01.:57:11.
:57:11.:57:16.

of them. Alan Norris has three darts, and an opportunity to finish

:57:16.:57:26.
:57:26.:57:32.

this one. Double 8 may be better for him. All square. There's no

:57:32.:57:38.

more sets after the 7. They were nervous. It's been a great tussle.

:57:38.:57:43.

A great match for both players. Enjoyable. They are close mates,

:57:43.:57:48.

and it's been a close encounter. Now we are into the deciding 7th

:57:49.:57:58.
:57:59.:58:10.

set. It's like Alan Norris's epic with Dean wyn Stanley nearly a year

:58:10.:58:20.
:58:20.:58:29.

ago today. That's better. Big scores from these lats: -- lads.

:58:29.:58:39.
:58:39.:58:40.

Four big scores in five visits to the ochie. What can Harms set up?

:58:40.:58:50.
:58:50.:58:58.

Top of the shot finish for Alan. after nine darts.. This for 11.

:58:58.:59:08.
:59:08.:59:11.

dart finish. This is brilliant. lead is broken there as well.

:59:11.:59:21.
:59:21.:59:43.

needed a drink there, didn't he. He'll be needing a drink after.

:59:43.:59:50.

Who's going to make the breakthrough. One hopes. It's nerve

:59:50.:59:59.

channelling. Even the crowd that's watching here. They've given them

:59:59.:00:09.
:00:09.:00:26.

the best. Friends and family can barely look. A good cover shot.

:00:26.:00:36.
:00:36.:00:40.

Just one leg separates them. Seems to be getting the best of order.

:00:40.:00:50.
:00:50.:00:54.

Must be a thriller. That finishes 147. Could be 170 here, on the

:00:54.:01:03.

treble The Harms is taking 147 out in the match. Alan Norris can't do

:01:03.:01:13.
:01:13.:01:21.

it at this juncture. Going for the board, double 19. To level the

:01:22.:01:31.
:01:32.:01:32.

match, double 16. He made it 3-3, 1-1. Final set. Brilliant, Jim.

:01:32.:01:40.

Just as high scoring in breaking Alan Norris in the first leg of the

:01:40.:01:50.
:01:50.:01:52.

decider. Alan Norris goes straight back. He didn't want to lose the

:01:52.:02:02.
:02:02.:02:25.

throw hee can take, he's got to tell you. Just 41

:02:25.:02:32.

from Norris. 440. -- 440. He's gone back in, and now has to battle

:02:33.:02:38.

again. Sharp exhalation of breath from Alan Norris. You can tell that

:02:38.:02:48.
:02:48.:02:49.

these two going through all sorts of emotions. There's not many fight

:02:49.:02:59.
:02:59.:03:21.

backs. He would have been under the carpet by now. 64. Back on 200.

:03:21.:03:25.

Harms knows he'll have an opportunity to break back

:03:25.:03:35.
:03:35.:03:36.

straightaway. Double 16 - to move within a leg. Yes. The finishing

:03:36.:03:41.

has been nervous. Wesley Harms now knows that all he has to do is hold

:03:41.:03:45.

his throw and he's throw to the quarterfinals for a second

:03:45.:03:49.

successive year. All he has to do is hold his throw, because neither

:03:49.:03:59.
:03:59.:04:00.

player has been able to hold his throw so far in this set. If you

:04:00.:04:06.

were picking a winner, the two darts advantage would go Harms. He

:04:06.:04:13.

has been brilliant. Took the first couple of sets. Fought back. Now a

:04:13.:04:23.
:04:23.:04:32.

chance to take the match. That's Alan's brother Matthew on the left-

:04:32.:04:42.

hand, sitting next to Wesley's partner, Meeka. That's another

:04:42.:04:46.

example of camaraderie. Two boys are gunning for each other. The

:04:46.:04:55.

boys are a little bit involved. That is enough. And he knows it,

:04:55.:05:05.
:05:05.:05:11.

Meeka knows it. A good marker. - knock at the door. Come on, you

:05:11.:05:21.
:05:21.:05:24.

can do it. It's this for the match for Wesley Harms. Treble 20, single

:05:24.:05:34.
:05:34.:05:43.

12, double 16. Let's see what he throws, 145 the score. 110 left.

:05:43.:05:48.

Unlucky. Kapt finish now. It's all down to -- can't finish now. It's

:05:48.:05:58.
:05:58.:06:01.

all down to Harms. Absolutely brilliant. What a match. The most

:06:01.:06:09.

enjoyable one so far, in my opinion. It's been great. It's been a battle.

:06:09.:06:16.

Wesley Harms has done himself proud. Scott Mitchell barely had time to

:06:16.:06:22.

wipe the tears of joy from his face after recording a round one wig at

:06:22.:06:28.

Lakeside, before the fog cleared and the man in his way was Robbie

:06:28.:06:31.

Green, who also never made it to the last eight. Once again,

:06:31.:06:37.

everything at stake on the bik stage. Your commentators this -- on

:06:37.:06:43.

the big stage. Your commentators this time Vassos Alexander, and

:06:43.:06:49.

Tony Green. 2-0 in this leg. It's the first set. That was the last

:06:49.:06:59.
:06:59.:07:07.

leg. He looks mean tonight. Back in the day, Tony, that is what you'd

:07:07.:07:15.

be wearing here in the commentary box. They are loving it already.

:07:15.:07:24.

Robbie Green is setting them alight. It's the second maximum of the

:07:24.:07:30.

match. He's the sort of player that can run away with the match if

:07:30.:07:40.
:07:40.:07:42.

you're not careful. It's fast, furious, but that is what darts is

:07:42.:07:52.
:07:52.:08:12.

all about. They'll put a bit of pressure on the 64, Scott Mitchell,

:08:12.:08:22.

who is yet to have a dart at a double. That'll be pressure. It

:08:22.:08:32.
:08:32.:08:41.

will be done in two darts. double 16 now. 68. Double 4 is the

:08:41.:08:51.
:08:51.:08:53.

shot. Double 2. This for the shed. There -- for the set. There may be

:08:53.:09:03.
:09:03.:09:24.

a chance. OK. Double 4. It's a set. No-one likes going for a double 1.

:09:24.:09:34.
:09:34.:10:04.

OK, double 8. That's the one. Set point. Le loves fishing, golf, --

:10:04.:10:14.
:10:14.:10:29.

he loves fishing, golf, football. There's a record of 3 out of 3

:10:30.:10:33.

before a first round win over Mark Barilli. Over the line and so

:10:34.:10:43.
:10:44.:10:44.

emotional to have finally got over that hurdle. It's a third attempt

:10:44.:10:54.
:10:54.:11:06.

to get out of Round 2. It's been a good start to the leg. One 4, 2-1.

:11:06.:11:14.

Still with a good lead. That's Jamie, who is Robbie's boy -

:11:14.:11:24.
:11:24.:11:29.

watching on with interest. Obviously with interest. It's the

:11:29.:11:34.

haircut. That's what does it. couple of times here Scott has left

:11:34.:11:40.

himself on one of these bogey numbers. It was extreme a couple of

:11:40.:11:46.

legs ago. No possible finishes. This time it's Robbie who is way

:11:46.:11:56.
:11:56.:12:16.

back. Options here. He's up to 54. That's 64 left. He has 43 left. So

:12:16.:12:26.
:12:26.:12:30.

no worries on that one. That's the first one of the second step.

:12:30.:12:40.
:12:40.:12:42.

little too late. That's the first win of the match. This, you feel,

:12:42.:12:52.
:12:52.:13:23.

would hurt if Robbie could hit kids will be happy seeing dad win a

:13:23.:13:29.

leg. Dad also, incidently had good support from Mark and Steve

:13:29.:13:39.
:13:39.:13:42.

Fletcher, who played before. Unfair start, that. Seems to be rushing a

:13:43.:13:52.
:13:53.:13:59.

bit, just in the first. Nerves maybe. Robbie beat the reigning

:13:59.:14:08.

champion, Christian Kist. scoring has just gone up. Well, if

:14:08.:14:18.
:14:18.:14:18.

one does it, you feel the other one does. Instead of just letting the

:14:18.:14:28.
:14:28.:14:46.

darts float. Robbie on this leg. That's settled. If they'd been

:14:46.:14:51.

three, it would be a bit of a worry. Don't pretent you don't have

:14:51.:14:55.

glasses like that. -- pretend you have glasses like that. You were

:14:55.:15:05.
:15:05.:15:08.

wearing them last night. Eight 20s required in the form of two trebles.

:15:08.:15:16.

Can't be done now, but Robbie is back on 187. Still left at 120.

:15:16.:15:26.
:15:26.:15:33.

Still a 3-dart finish. Treble 19 it will be. Yes. We have to get this

:15:33.:15:43.
:15:43.:16:00.

one. To level the set, 18, double 16. Yes. This set with the ledger

:16:00.:16:05.

going with the darts. If it remaibs like that, it will be one --

:16:06.:16:15.
:16:16.:16:32.

remains like that, it will be one set a piece. No tea tonight then.

:16:32.:16:42.
:16:42.:16:42.

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 70 seconds

:16:42.:18:51.

He's nicked a couple of legs now. 2-0 lead. He looks focused. He

:18:51.:18:59.

looks like he means business, Robbie Green. He was unable to

:18:59.:19:05.

compare the last dart for the double. Which would have won the

:19:05.:19:10.

match. March Martin Adams took it, and won the next -- Martin Adams

:19:10.:19:17.

took it and won the next six legs in succession. It all goes to show

:19:17.:19:21.

how quickly darts can change. One missed dart for the match, and you

:19:21.:19:31.

can end up losing. There's only two players. The other Mike Gregory and

:19:31.:19:40.

Taylor, in what I definitely believe was the greatest game of

:19:40.:19:50.
:19:50.:20:04.

this World Championship ever. Beautiful darts. That is? The red.

:20:04.:20:10.

There's Jamie. He's not happy, is he? He's living every dart, isn't

:20:10.:20:20.
:20:20.:20:23.

he? He's got plenty to be happy about, hasn't he. 144 points away

:20:23.:20:33.
:20:33.:20:39.

from a 2-set lead. Another double 20 would lead - no, 117. Big finish.

:20:39.:20:49.
:20:49.:21:11.

Big man - low score. Treble 20. single - double 17. Now it's 15.

:21:11.:21:20.

He's halfway there. Halfway to the final in the World Championship. In

:21:20.:21:26.

fact, this already counts as his best performance at Lakeside. It

:21:26.:21:33.

never counts as more than one set in the second round. Both players

:21:33.:21:38.

in unchartered waters, Scott Mitchell never being beyond Round 1.

:21:38.:21:48.
:21:48.:22:00.

Neither player wants the Lakeside adventure to end here. He's in

:22:00.:22:07.

trouble. There are heroes in the crowd. There are two big

:22:07.:22:17.
:22:17.:22:21.

superheroes on stage well. He used to enjoy a drink on the stage many

:22:21.:22:29.

moons ago. "I've been here 40 years". Remember Jockey Wilson

:22:29.:22:39.
:22:39.:22:47.

falling off the stage. Lovely. Lovely. Struggling, Scott Mitchell

:22:47.:22:56.

- 44, 43 and 45 in the fifth leg. Robbie Green is not really taking

:22:56.:23:06.
:23:06.:23:10.

advantage. They are single or double figure scores on the score

:23:10.:23:16.

board on either end of the Lakeside stage. The red scores are ones you

:23:16.:23:26.
:23:26.:23:26.

want - 100 or above. Like that. That goes up in red. He's not one

:23:26.:23:36.
:23:36.:23:41.

to make a move. It's a second away from in here. He's two sets down.

:23:41.:23:51.
:23:51.:23:51.

Treble 20 or double 18. 64 left, so treble 16. Scott Mitchell back on

:23:51.:24:00.

230. It's his 1-1 leg only in the first two sets. We feel he hasn't

:24:00.:24:10.
:24:10.:24:29.

quite settled into the match yet. Just one away. Yes, four sets to

:24:29.:24:39.
:24:39.:24:48.

win it. One more set after this. works as a courier. In his spare

:24:48.:24:58.
:24:58.:25:04.

time from darts. He does a bit of travelling. Not a bicycle courier.

:25:04.:25:10.

Motorbikes now, isn't it? Sometimes you see bike couriers, especially

:25:10.:25:16.

around the big city. Speaking of motorbikes, Scott Mitchell is a

:25:16.:25:26.
:25:26.:25:27.

huge fan of the Pirates Speedway Team. Neil Middleditch, who is the

:25:27.:25:33.

manager, was on the text to wish Scott good luck. He's a lovely man.

:25:33.:25:43.
:25:43.:25:52.

I've known him for many years. Cullins was a top player from

:25:52.:26:02.
:26:02.:26:06.

Dorset, talking to Scotty. He owns a cafeteria-shop now. He keeps

:26:06.:26:14.

getting in trouble. When Scotty finds a hurdle. He comes in and

:26:14.:26:24.
:26:24.:26:27.

shakes the roof. That's a lovely dart. Right in the middle. He's

:26:27.:26:32.

struggling a little bit with his range, as Scott Mitchell - as

:26:32.:26:42.

Robbie tries to take out treble 15. And tops for another leg, yes.

:26:42.:26:52.
:26:52.:26:55.

about that? 105. So that's five legs in a row for Robbie Green. He

:26:55.:27:00.

won the first three in the match to take the first step, and lost the

:27:00.:27:09.

leg. Nicked a couple and he's now one more leg away from a 3-0 lead

:27:09.:27:19.
:27:19.:27:35.

in sets. Scotty needs to play some darts. He's not happy. Already in

:27:35.:27:45.
:27:45.:27:59.

trouble here. He may well be. Look at the last dart. I don't know if

:27:59.:28:09.
:28:09.:28:18.

she can see the last dart. If you can hear me, it's in the treble 19.

:28:18.:28:28.
:28:28.:28:40.

Two of them. Robbie Green is showing the way. 48 left. 48 left

:28:40.:28:50.
:28:50.:28:56.

for another set. 16, double 16 is the shot. Double 16. Marching alone

:28:56.:29:06.
:29:06.:29:16.

is old King Kong. I'll never forget when I called him Robbie Green -

:29:16.:29:23.

mind you he was fitter. Robbie Sabber, I think it was. Dear.

:29:24.:29:33.
:29:34.:29:34.

do look very similar. Yes. That is a program I want to watch, Robbie

:29:34.:29:44.
:29:44.:29:45.

Green on 'Dancing On Ice' or 'Strictly' or, indeed 'Splash'.

:29:45.:29:53.

Nobody else would be able to drive. OK. Not far away from the end there,

:29:53.:30:02.

the way things are going. A few muppets and a plungeer I saw there.

:30:02.:30:12.
:30:12.:30:13.

-- plunker I saw there. Zipy and Bungall. Roland Rap and Dell boy

:30:13.:30:23.
:30:23.:30:29.

and Rodney - only at the darts. part of the fun. OK, a few scores

:30:29.:30:39.

for Scott Mitchell. 41, 41, 57. He just can't cut it tonight. Nothing

:30:39.:30:49.
:30:49.:31:14.

is going - Scott and Mark are there. He just keeps struggling. Now

:31:14.:31:24.

there's trouble just a fraction away. Robbie could punish that.

:31:24.:31:34.
:31:34.:31:35.

Only one score of 60 in nine throws. There's a 1 40. There is Colin

:31:35.:31:39.

Murray, who has put -- there's a 140. And there is Colin Murray, who

:31:39.:31:45.

has put on a bit of weight. loves his darts, does Colin,

:31:45.:31:55.
:31:55.:31:59.

doesn't he. So Scott the first to finish on this leg. To be honest,

:31:59.:32:07.

he can do something to galvanise this, and how about this, a 164. A

:32:07.:32:15.

Shanghai for Robbie. Treble 20, treble 18. Robbie, Chang high on

:32:15.:32:25.
:32:25.:32:26.

130. -- Shanghai on 140. A treble 20. Single 20, double top. See the

:32:26.:32:36.
:32:36.:32:45.

second dart. Just cruising now. bet that feels like a punch to the

:32:45.:32:49.

Solar plexise, that Scotty dart. It's been a while since he got a

:32:50.:32:59.
:33:00.:33:00.

dart to the double. He's only one, one leg, and he's lost the last

:33:00.:33:10.
:33:10.:33:36.

seven in a row. The game is not finished yet. Yes, come on. Let's

:33:36.:33:46.
:33:46.:34:10.

see how you can perform. This is the leg. Needs a treble. He's only

:34:10.:34:20.
:34:20.:34:21.

won the one leg. It will be soul destroying, when I got off the

:34:21.:34:31.
:34:31.:34:42.

stage with Scotty, I know how I was feeling. 141 left after that 125.

:34:42.:34:51.

It should win the leg. He knows it. Biting the fingernails. Another

:34:51.:35:01.
:35:01.:35:04.

five left. Treble 15 - no. He'll be back for 91. He knows something

:35:04.:35:14.
:35:14.:35:22.

precious coming. That is really unlucky. Treble 17. Different to

:35:22.:35:32.
:35:32.:35:58.

that. 25. Calls the shot. Can he do an Archie Adams now? He took all

:35:58.:36:08.
:36:08.:36:16.

the sets against Robbie in the Masters. Robbie almost had a leg

:36:16.:36:20.

off in that last leg, he couldn't find the scoring, didn't get down

:36:20.:36:27.

to the finish. Scott, for his credit took full advantage with the

:36:27.:36:36.

91 checkout. Now a treble 20. Are we finally going to see some darts

:36:36.:36:46.
:36:46.:36:56.

from Scotty. Hopefully. He'll put it away very quickly now.

:36:56.:37:01.

mention that they were messaging each other on Facebook early this

:37:01.:37:11.
:37:11.:37:12.

morning. What surprised me is that they were both up at 7:30, 8:00.

:37:12.:37:22.
:37:22.:37:30.

Last to bed. Still with the throw. 195 - that's why he's gone on to

:37:30.:37:40.
:37:40.:37:52.

19s. Robbie's gone off the boil now. Six darts from 138. It can be done

:37:52.:38:01.

in three. Treble 18 leads double 12. He'll be back - he could have done

:38:01.:38:11.
:38:11.:38:24.

without the one. OK. 19 double top. Dear. 71 left. 5, double 8 are the

:38:24.:38:34.
:38:34.:39:00.

options. Yes. Robbie beat Scott 2-1 in the semifinals on the way to

:39:00.:39:06.

winning in Belgium in 2011. They have only met once before on TV,

:39:06.:39:16.
:39:16.:39:16.

these two. Scott beat Robbie 5-1 in the first round Group stage. He's

:39:16.:39:26.
:39:26.:39:30.

gone back to how he was in the earlier stages. My head is spinning.

:39:30.:39:40.
:39:40.:39:55.

So many people watching. He wants to do so well for his fans. 30 and

:39:55.:40:05.
:40:05.:40:09.

41. So far from Scott in this leg. 71 scored in six darts. This isn't

:40:09.:40:19.
:40:19.:40:27.

going much better. You can't beat a better bully. Check that. 158 left

:40:28.:40:37.
:40:38.:40:47.

for Robbie. 406 for Scott Mitchell. To square the set. It won't be this

:40:47.:40:57.
:40:57.:41:00.

time. They'll be coming back for definite, and maybe more than once.

:41:00.:41:10.
:41:10.:41:32.

Yes, he will be back more than once, if he wants to be. Double top.

:41:32.:41:42.
:41:42.:41:57.

for Mitchell. He cannot finish. Double top is the shot. Double 10.

:41:57.:42:07.
:42:07.:42:17.

The group enjoyed that. He needs it because he's just one leg away. We

:42:17.:42:22.

know he can do better. It's the way to start the leg, where you are

:42:22.:42:28.

throwing for your life, your legside life at 180. I was hoping

:42:29.:42:35.

he'd get a 9-dart finish there? Weren't we all. It's about time,

:42:35.:42:45.
:42:45.:42:54.

isn't it? Yes. Come on. That's it. If he can take this leg it makes

:42:54.:43:03.

all the difference. He's on the finish. Crucially. Robbie will not

:43:03.:43:13.
:43:13.:43:20.

be on a finish. Sixth start from 138. 15 scored from 123. Coming

:43:20.:43:30.
:43:30.:43:31.

back now for 43. It could make all the difference in this match.

:43:31.:43:37.

that's a finish of sorts, 152. This is for the set. Three double top he

:43:37.:43:47.
:43:47.:43:51.

might go or 11, double 16. Double 12 he wants for the set. This is

:43:51.:44:01.
:44:01.:44:07.

for the match. Scott Mitchell. He'll come back for double 6.

:44:07.:44:17.
:44:17.:44:20.

Silence please. He's done it. Look at that. We thought he didn't have

:44:20.:44:30.
:44:30.:44:34.

a dog's chance. The spoty dog may have just started howling. He has a

:44:34.:44:44.
:44:44.:44:50.

set on the board. He is two down with three to play. It's

:44:50.:44:54.

disappointing when you have been down there, and you get a little

:44:54.:45:04.
:45:04.:45:06.

bit of energy and you think "Right, I can still do it.". He's taking

:45:06.:45:12.

his time. A drink of water. I can guarantee you that's what it is.

:45:12.:45:18.

It's giving Robbie a chance as well to think about how close he was to

:45:18.:45:28.
:45:28.:45:41.

the quarterfinals. As I said 6-3, losing every leg, lost the match.

:45:41.:45:49.

That's a little repeated. That's somewhere in the dark recesss of

:45:50.:45:57.

the mind. A little nagging doubt. It happened before. He'll try not

:45:57.:46:06.

to think. The thing is Scotty hasn't made up for it. Finishing on

:46:06.:46:16.
:46:16.:46:19.

170. You mentioned the masters. The Masters in 2010. He missed three

:46:19.:46:29.
:46:29.:46:40.

darts. He won the final 5-3, but it was 5-4 to Ross Montgomery. Riding

:46:40.:46:50.
:46:50.:47:01.

the corner. Plenty of room. Still plenty of room. Double 6. He's had

:47:01.:47:11.
:47:11.:47:11.

a few bounce-outs, Robbie. Here we go, double 5. How about this. For

:47:11.:47:21.
:47:21.:47:31.

130 - yes, indeed. Now, that... that doesn't pump him up, nothing

:47:31.:47:41.
:47:41.:47:57.

will. Is the tide changing? Here comes Robbie now. It's a break of

:47:57.:48:03.

throw there for Scott in the last leg. He looked miles back. He was

:48:03.:48:13.
:48:13.:48:35.

miles back. He's got the advantage of throw here. Hold on Robbie.

:48:35.:48:41.

134. Robbie Green. That's pressurising this throw and this

:48:41.:48:51.
:48:51.:48:51.

leg. All around the treble, without going in. Robbie's having a great

:48:51.:49:01.
:49:01.:49:19.

leg. Down for 19 or the 17. Good finish, 130. It's just been done.

:49:19.:49:29.
:49:29.:49:44.

He's going to have a lot of entry. Options there. Scott on 241. Still

:49:44.:49:54.
:49:54.:50:00.

not on a finish. Treble 18 for double 8. Perhaps double 14.

:50:00.:50:10.
:50:10.:50:20.

double top, Robbie Green. 184. are all over the place. Double top.

:50:20.:50:30.
:50:30.:50:38.

To level the set - coming closer. They broke the serve as well.

:50:38.:50:48.
:50:48.:50:50.

Scottie drew first. This could be the point of no return. You wanted

:50:50.:50:57.

to see it kick on after the 120 checkout after winning the first

:50:57.:51:04.

set of the match. He had a quiet leg, couldn't find the treble and

:51:04.:51:11.

kept struggling. Still in the 9. That's the trouble. Once your mind

:51:11.:51:21.
:51:21.:51:25.

takes you away from it - you just want to dig a hole. He's not doing

:51:25.:51:29.

anything personal on the stage. He's come on, and nothing it going

:51:29.:51:33.

right for him. I think I know a little what I'm talking about - I

:51:33.:51:43.
:51:43.:51:44.

have seen it. You know more than a little bit, Tony. Like I said, it's

:51:44.:51:54.
:51:54.:52:18.

only one apiece in this set. Yes, that was the time to take it. The

:52:18.:52:24.

highest scores. His fourth of the match, his first in a couple of

:52:24.:52:34.
:52:34.:52:57.

sets. Come on, is he going to Tony Green double top. Under

:52:57.:53:07.
:53:07.:53:09.

pressure now. Double 10. One more dart. How about that, Scott

:53:09.:53:19.
:53:19.:53:29.

Mitchell. He never looked anywhere near nicking. Double 16. It's up to

:53:29.:53:39.
:53:39.:54:03.

him. Up to him. More water. He's on the pink now. If he can get this.

:54:03.:54:13.
:54:13.:54:17.

Has the advantage. Not too bad at all. It helps. If it's a leg away

:54:17.:54:26.

it becomes interesting. That can happen. He's had a few throughout

:54:26.:54:36.
:54:36.:54:40.

the match, wild once. There's nothing you can do about it. Robbie

:54:40.:54:48.

has gone off the Boyle. The scoring is still there from Robbie.

:54:49.:54:58.
:54:59.:55:07.

still that is in him, Robbie. match should have been all over.

:55:07.:55:17.
:55:17.:55:40.

This is showing that you never ever give in. He wants to measure there.

:55:40.:55:50.
:55:50.:56:13.

darts darts at least. He's in a different

:56:13.:56:19.

position. Sot will be thinking he needs to put pressure on just like

:56:19.:56:29.
:56:29.:56:38.

this and that. And he follows it in. Playing for the match again. Just

:56:38.:56:48.
:56:48.:56:59.

got a shot of his son Jamie, who is biting his fingernails. He doesn't

:56:59.:57:07.

want a 3-2 lead, having been up in set. Remember, Robbie has never

:57:07.:57:16.

been as as farspzas the quarterfinals. 140 to start this --.

:57:16.:57:26.
:57:26.:57:28.

As far as the quarterfinals. 140s. It's something to cheer, but

:57:28.:57:38.
:57:38.:57:41.

not a lot. A bit of breathing space for Mitchell. This leg will take a

:57:41.:57:51.
:57:51.:57:57.

set. One of them will take the match. For the match. We are in

:57:57.:58:07.
:58:07.:58:22.

trouble now. 36 left. Robbie Green with a double 18 for the match.

:58:22.:58:32.
:58:32.:58:34.

There it is. That is a quarterfinal for the man they call Kong. The

:58:34.:58:43.

adventure ends in Round 2. fifth seed goes through. Robbie is

:58:43.:58:47.

through. That wraps things up for this evening. Some marvellous

:58:47.:58:53.

matches up on the big stage. Join us later on this afternoon, BBC Two

:58:53.:58:58.
