:00:00. > :00:42.Good evening and welcome to the Lakeside country club for our first
:00:43. > :00:49.highlights show from the 2016 BDO worths darts championships. Some new
:00:50. > :00:50.names that we haven't heard of before, but the usually suspects are
:00:51. > :01:30.all here. And one of those faces that you saw
:01:31. > :01:34.was Glen Durrant. He did so well last year, and he is the number one
:01:35. > :01:40.seed, and the man to beat. He is taking on Dean Reynolds, making his
:01:41. > :01:45.di but lure, by he lives ten miles down the road. It Durrant against
:01:46. > :01:49.Reynolds 20 to kick off the highlights. A magical atmosphere.
:01:50. > :01:57.Neck and neck in theifies set. Two legs apiece as we Jin them. -- as we
:01:58. > :02:03.join them. What Glen Durrant has allowed Dean Reynolds to do, to miss
:02:04. > :02:06.seven darts and a double without being punished. He won that third
:02:07. > :02:09.leg at the fourth time of asking, and won the fourth leg to level the
:02:10. > :02:15.first set, at the fifth time of asking.
:02:16. > :02:21., file analysis, it's a little bit scruffy now. Durrant, who started so
:02:22. > :02:24.impressively, he tried to regroup now. And looking for a second
:02:25. > :02:44.maximum and he gets it! 180! To stay in touch. But a 140 and a
:02:45. > :02:56.180 to start to leg from Glen Durrant. 105.
:02:57. > :03:04.He leaves 76 for the set. How about a that? From Deano! So Durrant, for
:03:05. > :03:16.the set. 76. Looking for single 16 for tops. Tops
:03:17. > :03:26.for Durrant for the first set. It's a 12-darter. Needed it to be.
:03:27. > :03:33.Roller coaster of a set. And now Reynolds with the darts. And in the
:03:34. > :03:44.end, it went the way of the top seed, and went the way of the throw.
:03:45. > :04:01.A few dramas de-2016 start and conclusion, to put it mildly.
:04:02. > :04:51.Glen Durrant, never massively dem strative, is he? He is very focused.
:04:52. > :04:56.Whereas, Dean Reynolds does wear his heart on his sleeve. Well, Glen
:04:57. > :05:04.believes it's all in the mind, doesn't he? He has his mind coach.
:05:05. > :05:10.And he beliefs in what he does and he believes in his own ability, and
:05:11. > :05:12.he produces dart like that. The fifth of the match already. A good
:05:13. > :05:33.response. Very good response. Treble 18. So Reynolds comes back
:05:34. > :05:41.and he needs 70 for the opening leg. 66 left. Double nine. Game
:05:42. > :05:44.Unusual way to get it. But it doesn't matter. He is ahead in the
:05:45. > :05:47.set. Good fun, this. Here we go again.
:05:48. > :06:17.140. Not far away. Dean Reynolds in his Lakeside debut.
:06:18. > :06:23.Wonder how much he is enjoying being up there. Judging by the acclaim he
:06:24. > :06:30.got when he walked on. And he is playing a bit better now the
:06:31. > :06:35.adrenaline Rush of his arrival has worn off slightly and he is into the
:06:36. > :06:40.match. He is composing himself. Sensibly. A loose dart. But straight
:06:41. > :06:58.back into the treble 20. A few Welsh flags in the auditorium.
:06:59. > :07:05.They have made that way down. He is wearing his, I think. He may live in
:07:06. > :07:12.Guildford these days, but very much a Cardiff boy at heart. Learned his
:07:13. > :07:22.darts in the pub, run by mum and dad.
:07:23. > :07:24.Another couple of messageses, other pubs are available in the Cardiff
:07:25. > :08:06.area. Still thinking. 177! Well done!
:08:07. > :08:11.Stunning from Reynolds. He put the Durrant throw under big pressure. 84
:08:12. > :08:22.he needs. What a great dart. For an 84 checkout. Sixes. Well, misses and
:08:23. > :08:28.it was by virtue of that wonderful set-up from Reynolds. He must hit
:08:29. > :08:35.double nine. Although he did in the last leg, not this time. Got to take
:08:36. > :08:39.your chances. Double threes is no fun, right at
:08:40. > :08:45.your chances. Double threes is no board. But they are all on the same
:08:46. > :08:49.side. , a little smile from Dean Reynolds, who thinks head should
:08:50. > :08:58.have won that one. Kind of agree with him. He did it the hard way. He
:08:59. > :08:59.put Durrant under some real pressure, with that 177, quite
:09:00. > :09:07.superb. I wonder, when when look back at
:09:08. > :09:14.that match, whether that will be a moment. Three missed darts at double
:09:15. > :09:17.18, two at double 18 and one at double nine. He has to put it behind
:09:18. > :09:33.him. Looks as though he has. Well, Deano's throwing on raw
:09:34. > :10:04.emotion. His fans are certainly a passionate
:10:05. > :10:11.mob. 13020 got ahead again. He got six if he needs them. What a good
:10:12. > :10:19.dot. Double eight. 183, no out shot. He can pressure the double four.
:10:20. > :10:26.Reynolds missed three Darths for a two leg lead. Double four. This is a
:10:27. > :10:27.Reynolds missed three Darths for a big one. He needs to put this away.
:10:28. > :10:47.A gad marker. Oh, dear, dear, dear. To move ahead in the set. So 20
:10:48. > :10:54.leaves the bull. Treble leaves double five. So two fives for
:10:55. > :11:00.Durrant... And Reynolds gets a second opportunity. Which I don't
:11:01. > :11:05.think, he could have anticipated receiving and he's taken it at last.
:11:06. > :11:07.Dean Reynolds is ahead again in this second set. The Welsh contingent
:11:08. > :11:52.believe. To try and hold this throw, Glen
:11:53. > :11:58.Durrant. To level the set. First to three sets through to the second
:11:59. > :12:18.round. It will be a break, a short one, at the end of this second set.
:12:19. > :12:49.Good last dart leaves the big finish. Will he get a chance at it?
:12:50. > :12:57.Good dart. Double 12. For Durrant. There it is. Quality finishing makes
:12:58. > :13:05.22-2. And Reynolds with the throw. How badly he needed to hold onto
:13:06. > :13:06.this leg and take this one, otherwise Durrant will have distance
:13:07. > :13:11.between him and young Dean Reynolds. Still no treble here. By either
:13:12. > :13:51.player. Pressure... Responding well. Such an
:13:52. > :13:58.important leg in the context of the whole match, this.
:13:59. > :14:07.Was that a bit of inexperience, a bit of tension? And the way he
:14:08. > :14:15.reacted to it, would have given Glen Durrant a bit of a boost. In a scrap
:14:16. > :14:19.like this, it's good to know if you're opponent is feeling down on
:14:20. > :14:20.himself. Reynolds will try to bounce straight back here. That unlucky.
:14:21. > :14:51.Great darts. A big dart. Only 100. A 140 would
:14:52. > :14:58.have been lovy. Only a hundred, the sort of standard we come to expect
:14:59. > :15:00.from Glen Durrant. The number one seed, really given an examination
:15:01. > :15:16.here by Reynolds. This is for the set. Treble 14. Double 11, he left.
:15:17. > :15:23.For a 142 and the set, not far away. So, Dean Reynolds... Unusual way to
:15:24. > :15:32.go for it. Tops for Reynolds. Missed it by a long way. Glen you, require
:15:33. > :15:40.22. Double 11. It's not a great one. The far left-hand side of the board.
:15:41. > :15:51.But he finds it when he needs it. And sure going to feel a little bit
:15:52. > :15:57.buoyant as a result of taking that leg and the set. He needs one more
:15:58. > :16:02.to take his place in the next round. Not been vintage, Durrant, not quite
:16:03. > :16:10.at his best. But Reynolds has had opportunities. He could have been
:16:11. > :16:15.closer. But how deflated would he have been by that reverse? Come on,
:16:16. > :16:22.says Durrant. He did and a dart at double top to win the set, remember?
:16:23. > :16:28.Dean Reynolds. His double percentage is what is costing him. He has hit
:16:29. > :16:33.four out of 19. Just 21%. Not good enough. Not if you want to beat the
:16:34. > :16:44.top seed. Had a couple of poor visits here. They both have.
:16:45. > :16:51.That's better. Back in the groove, back in the red bit, and back on the
:16:52. > :17:01.maximum board. His fourth of the match. Three for Reynolds, seven in
:17:02. > :17:06.total. And Durrant has been the heavier scorer. 130 ahead, plus
:17:07. > :17:23.these. He's done precisely what he wanted
:17:24. > :17:30.after that break, putting himself in a winning position and dominance in
:17:31. > :17:37.this leg. All he has to do is hold this throw three times. Now, treble
:17:38. > :17:40.ten for double 18, or bull for double eight? Single nine he'll go
:17:41. > :17:53.for now. Reynolds back on 248. Not a lot he could do about that.
:17:54. > :17:57.Here comes Durrant to take the advantage in what could be the last
:17:58. > :18:06.leg of the match. Two 16s, now a couple of eights. Very nice.
:18:07. > :18:15.Looks very much in control of himself up there.
:18:16. > :18:21.Exactly that is what he'll tell you has brought him all his success.
:18:22. > :18:31.Keeping control of his emotions. Keeping the belief.
:18:32. > :18:32.Seeing pressurised situations as opportunities, not potential
:18:33. > :18:49.disasters. Something like one who studied these
:18:50. > :18:54.things. I talked to, a lot of tennis players. Joe, her mind coach. For
:18:55. > :18:58.about a week, I thought, you know what - I could work! It's changing
:18:59. > :19:17.my approach to life! And then reality kicked in. And Durrant, 281.
:19:18. > :19:23.He has fifthly take taken the throw -- he has effectively taken the
:19:24. > :19:29.throw here. Not been at his best, but Reynolds has
:19:30. > :19:57.Well, some rackets if he pulls this one off. Up here it in Cardiff. --
:19:58. > :20:23.you'll hear it Double top he's left. After all of
:20:24. > :20:32.that, he wasn't far away. He knows it. Durrant returns for another go
:20:33. > :20:35.at double five. I think he knows where Reynolds gets
:20:36. > :20:39.at double five. I think he knows manners from. Double five for
:20:40. > :20:52.Durrant. There it is. He needs one more leg and he's home and hosed.
:20:53. > :21:03.You would speck him, the way he's been playing over the past
:21:04. > :21:06.You would speck him, the way he's The fact he's disappointed with only
:21:07. > :21:10.100 to start the leg telts you everything. He produced
:21:11. > :21:17.100 to start the leg telts you game of darts. It sums up what he's
:21:18. > :21:22.done here. He's not been at his very best, but he's done enough. And
:21:23. > :21:28.unless the wheels really fall off in some spectacular manner here, he's
:21:29. > :21:31.going to cross the line. D unless the wheels really fall off in some
:21:32. > :21:37.spectacular manner here, he's going to cross the line. 38% checkout
:21:38. > :21:41.rate. An ashling of over 90. Reynolds still in there, pitching.
:21:42. > :21:49.Company on, Durrant, he says to himself. A lovely cover shot. On,
:21:50. > :21:55.Durrant, he says to himself. A lovely cover shot. He doesn't play
:21:56. > :22:01.again until Wednesday, or Thursday of next week.
:22:02. > :22:17.This is a first round match. We've some preliminary rounds to go, but
:22:18. > :22:26.all in amongst each other. Time to go back to Middlesborough if he
:22:27. > :22:31.wanted to. Well, he could go the show boat exhibition stuff and go
:22:32. > :22:40.via the bull. That's one of them. He went for, did he go for 250? May
:22:41. > :22:48.have gone for treble 17 there. To stay alive. Can't now finish, so
:22:49. > :22:54.this might be it for Dean Reynolds. As Durrant comes in now, with
:22:55. > :22:59.He is in the mood to finish this, right here, right now. That's not a
:23:00. > :23:12.good Tops, he only gets the one dart at
:23:13. > :23:16.it. All he needed. And Dean Reynolds, the Welshman, is accounted
:23:17. > :23:20.for the straight sets. Glen Durrant, not at his very best, but great
:23:21. > :23:28.support for Dean Reynolds, but no his day. Glen Durrant through into
:23:29. > :23:31.the next round, and winning fairly comfortably, ultimately. It's a
:23:32. > :23:37.different prospect when you come here as the number one seed. Well
:23:38. > :23:42.done, a little bit of relief to get over the first hurdle? I respected
:23:43. > :23:46.Dean Reynolds so much. I said he was a fantastic player. The biggest
:23:47. > :23:52.compliment, could give him, I never looked at the draw. He was the only
:23:53. > :23:57.guy I concentrated on in practice, he is a phenomenal young man.
:23:58. > :24:02.Looking at the 12 months you had, since you lost some sneem. It seemed
:24:03. > :24:11.the defeat has defined you and inspired you. Absolutely that's the
:24:12. > :24:19.game that people remember me. I learned all awful lot from that day.
:24:20. > :24:25.That Martin Adams game, I was inconsolable for one month. I kicked
:24:26. > :24:27.in from the Scottish Open. Well, in 2016, it has started pretty well.
:24:28. > :24:39.Congratulations. We'll see you in Well, Durrant through, as the number
:24:40. > :24:46.one in the laids draw. Lisa Ashton beat Paula Jacklin, as she aims to
:24:47. > :24:53.make it three titles in a row. I couldn't bet against her. Elsewhere,
:24:54. > :24:57.sudden death. Anastasia Dobromyslova could not get it done.
:24:58. > :25:09.Uncharacteristic. Up stepped Anca Zijlstra. This time, eventually, job
:25:10. > :25:15.done. And back in the men's draw this evening, the silencer is making
:25:16. > :25:15.noise again. The Canadian, Jeff Smith, through comfortably against
:25:16. > :25:25.Matthew Medhurst. Some of the big guns then had tough
:25:26. > :25:31.matches today. None more so than Tony O'Shea, who drew in the-form
:25:32. > :25:38.Jim Williams. Here is how this one finished up. He cherishes his hopes,
:25:39. > :25:45.but Williams with the darts. A nice solid start. He hits the tens, it
:25:46. > :25:54.would put O'Shea under huge pressure. It's not lying nicely.
:25:55. > :26:03.Another set goes the distance. Will it go the same way as the first two?
:26:04. > :26:11.Will it go to Wales? Or can Tony O'Shea find something? He needs to
:26:12. > :26:17.find the treble 20. Rchld the winner of this could be #4e9ding towards a
:26:18. > :26:27.second round -- could be heading towards a second round match with
:26:28. > :26:29.the Dutchman. Looking as though it's going to way of the Welshman at the
:26:30. > :26:48.moment. But so is this. That's one out of
:26:49. > :26:57.the bet. That was a... How unlucky is that?! 140 when he comes back.
:26:58. > :27:04.O'Shea, looking at a very small target, trying to adjust to get the
:27:05. > :27:09.treble 18. Match point again. Another treble 20 for double ten for
:27:10. > :27:16.the match. This is a match dart for Jim Williams, the isth seed. What a
:27:17. > :27:27.way to do it! He had knocked out Tony O'Shea, one of the Lakeside's
:27:28. > :27:33.true gentlemen. So, the Silverback gone, and was another giant going to
:27:34. > :27:38.fall? Darryl Fitton is taking on Dennis Harbour. This one down to the
:27:39. > :27:48.wire. We join it at two sets all, and three
:27:49. > :27:58.Well, Harbour will be buoyed by that, no question about it. The
:27:59. > :28:08.ninth time he hit double top in this match.
:28:09. > :28:13.He he smips the punishments and he is still in. Still afloat, you could
:28:14. > :28:32.say. So once again, a reminder, you god
:28:33. > :28:38.to win by two clear legs, until five all, when we'll talk again.
:28:39. > :28:40.Nothing between these two lads, really. Right the way through the
:28:41. > :28:47.match. Looked as though it was going to be
:28:48. > :29:04.a close one on paper, and so it's Harbour with those ranking titles to
:29:05. > :29:10.his name this year, but somewhat belie his world ranking of 23 with
:29:11. > :29:11.the BDO. And Darryl Fitton, so much experience, but under huge pressure
:29:12. > :29:35.here in the first round. He's had that dart for the match.
:29:36. > :29:44.Got to be forgotten now. He didn't need that, I tell you. On debut, in
:29:45. > :29:50.2003, Darryl Fitton walked a 1-year-old James Wade, miss, I was
:29:51. > :29:58.going to say nine, in fact, it was ten match darts before hitting back
:29:59. > :30:03.with a 145, for a 3-2 win. Extraordinary match. Still down to
:30:04. > :30:13.finishes. Fitton with the throw. Good
:30:14. > :30:26.A bit unlucky with the last one. But 6 not bad. Options on the 19s.
:30:27. > :30:34.He may well choose to go the 19 route when he returns. Outstanding
:30:35. > :30:42.from Harbour. He puts more pressure on the Fitton throw now. If he
:30:43. > :30:50.misses one of these trel, he'll leave a bull's-eye. Double six to
:30:51. > :30:54.move ahead again. Oohs and aahs from the crowd, living every moment as
:30:55. > :31:02.the two players. Harbour to take this leg against the darts. 76.
:31:03. > :31:21.A single 18 would now. This is for the leg... 61. He
:31:22. > :31:25.miscalculated there. I'm pretty sure he miscalculated. That was tops for
:31:26. > :31:33.the leg and the penny is now dropping. How on earth did you do
:31:34. > :31:34.that, he says. Extraordinary. Is he going to go straight for the double
:31:35. > :31:50.three? So, one for double one... Well, Fitton makes him pay. And
:31:51. > :31:57.comes home and wins that leg. And now, Harbour, once more, in the
:31:58. > :32:03.position of having to do it. Fitton in the madhouse! A double one! When
:32:04. > :32:04.you're playing Dennis Harbour when a match is this tight, any port in a
:32:05. > :32:22.storm. Throwing angry there. He he double tops for it. And
:32:23. > :32:26.somewhere in his head, he got it into there that he needed the
:32:27. > :32:31.bull's-eye. He went for the bull's-eye and got a 250. The
:32:32. > :32:46.aarithmetic was wrong and Fitton hit him.
:32:47. > :33:19.Well, we're just finding out, it wasn't Dennis Harbour's fault. We
:33:20. > :33:27.were right. Our jackets were right. He only had 76 to go, but on the
:33:28. > :33:30.floor, he said 86. So, he did, in his mind, and on the scoreboard, had
:33:31. > :33:36.50 points left for the leg. his mind, and on the scoreboard, had
:33:37. > :33:42.if that is going to cost him dear. He would be a bit of an angry man if
:33:43. > :33:45.that's true. Our understanding of it, he was going according to what
:33:46. > :33:47.he understood to be the remaining target. If he loses his leg, he's
:33:48. > :34:01.going to be furious. Oh, he needed another treble to leaf
:34:02. > :34:04.himself a finish. So Darryl, six darts from 221.
:34:05. > :34:20.Well, he is annoyed with that last one, but he is poised on a potential
:34:21. > :34:33.two-dart checkout. He'll come back, throwing, for the
:34:34. > :34:44.match. He missed one dart at double 18 already for the match. But here
:34:45. > :34:53.he is, 96 points away. He starts with a treble 20, back at double 18
:34:54. > :34:58.for the match. What a marker! No! , can you believe it?! He looked as
:34:59. > :35:06.though he done the hard work. Couldn't be done. And now, Harbour,
:35:07. > :35:18.a must-get. 74. Single 20 leaves tops. It's hot wouck work.
:35:19. > :35:30.And Fitton once more double 18 for the match.
:35:31. > :35:39.For the fourth time of asking... Darryl Fitton aims as two 18s for a
:35:40. > :35:47.place in the second round. So three for double 16 he needs now.
:35:48. > :36:01.No, no, no! His wife can hardly bear to watch. Dennis Harbour now, to
:36:02. > :36:07.keep his chances alive. Double ten. What is going through his mind,
:36:08. > :36:44.Darryl Fitton? Five match darts all missed. And
:36:45. > :36:50.Dennis Harbour, he will be thinking that, to that evening in 2003, when
:36:51. > :36:58.James Wade missed ten match darts to let him in, and let him win, Darryl,
:36:59. > :37:07.Darryl, Darryl. Five match darts, Darryl Fitton has had, and hasn't be
:37:08. > :37:13.able to convert them. Now, just needs to hold his throw...
:37:14. > :37:28.Could have easier said than done. Still, in a situation where either
:37:29. > :37:31.player can win by two clear legs. But if it gets to five-all, then
:37:32. > :37:51.it's a sudden death leg. He is looking for his seventh
:37:52. > :38:03.maximum, the 140s, a very handy consolation.
:38:04. > :38:16.This match has been going on for 80 minutes and still it's not
:38:17. > :38:19.determined. Fitton annoyed about that second dart and look at the
:38:20. > :38:43.third! Great dart! Fitton will come back with 9530 make
:38:44. > :38:45.it 5-4. The worst he could do, to go into sudden death. But 150 is
:38:46. > :39:07.gettable. Bull now, to go 5-4 ahead. So 20s and 18s is the way he'll go.
:39:08. > :39:11.Treble 18 for double 18. He stayed at the
:39:12. > :39:20.He'll now aim at the treble 10 and get that, and pressure the 25. Put
:39:21. > :39:30.huge pressure on the 25. A great visit from Harbour. Two darts at it.
:39:31. > :39:39.Got to be a good marker, surely! , he manages to squeak it in. He goes
:39:40. > :39:47.5-4 up. The worst Fitton can do know is sudden death. Harbour has to hold
:39:48. > :39:53.his though or Fitton takes it. At the fourth time of asking. Three
:39:54. > :40:01.time, Harbour had to held his throw and held it. If Harbour wins this
:40:02. > :40:07.leg, they throw for the bull's-eye, and whoever is closest will throw
:40:08. > :40:13.first in one final deciding sudden death leg. But first, Harbour must
:40:14. > :40:15.hold. Well, 44 is not what Fitton would have wanted. Harbour in pole
:40:16. > :40:32.position. Nothing between these two guys.
:40:33. > :40:37.Fitton's average is slightly higher, but look at the checkouts. So often
:40:38. > :40:43.what determines the courses of matches and
:40:44. > :41:02.Take your hat off the Dennis Harbour because the crowd, for much of this,
:41:03. > :41:07.has been with Fitton, but he's just hung in there. That is unlucky,
:41:08. > :41:13.really unlucky. At this stage of the match as well. A bounce out. He'll
:41:14. > :41:14.feel that 60 points on the floor. And Darryl will feel it's an
:41:15. > :41:24.opportunity. , not lining well, that one. He had
:41:25. > :41:31.to come across. And he is moving again the 18, I think. It's an
:41:32. > :41:32.opportunity he didn't take. The lie of the darts completely stitched him
:41:33. > :41:55.up there. So, he's on 136. Darryl's wife,
:41:56. > :41:59.bellowing her encouragement. Great dart and he is building on it. What
:42:00. > :42:04.a time to do that!! LAUGHTER
:42:05. > :42:13.Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant. From Darryl Fitton.
:42:14. > :42:25.136 under all sorts of pressure to stay alive. Can't be done now.
:42:26. > :42:34.You think in Darryl Fitton will have at least one more. Having already
:42:35. > :42:39.missed five. Comth the hour, cometh the man. Is he going to get it right
:42:40. > :42:45.here? And now, Fitton, 86 for the match. 18 would leave him
:42:46. > :42:48.bull's-eye. Bull's-eye for the match. And he's missed it! And
:42:49. > :43:11.missed it from a distance. He's been so steady. At the top of
:43:12. > :43:14.the board. Dennis Harbour... And there it's gouling, for the Ten
:43:15. > :43:22.time. We are going all the way. This is how it works. , suddenth time.
:43:23. > :43:29.So, they throw for the bull. If it's in the bull. The second guy can ask
:43:30. > :43:33.for it to be removed, to give him the chance. The best attempt at bull
:43:34. > :43:43.here, and they will continue So, a centre bull for Fitton. And he
:43:44. > :43:52.would have the dart, an outer, we carry on. That means that Harbour
:43:53. > :44:03.has the dart. Sixth missed match darts. For Darryl Fitton. Dennis
:44:04. > :44:09.Harbour has the darts, whoever wins this leg wins the match. It doesn't
:44:10. > :44:12.happen often in Lakeside. It's only the 14th time ever. Whose nerve is
:44:13. > :44:22.going to hold? What a battle it's been. Not in highest scores, but
:44:23. > :44:27.tension right the way through. And now, it comes down to this.
:44:28. > :44:33.What a last dart! Every dart matters so much now.
:44:34. > :44:46.Good start from Fitton. Wants to follow it in. Wants at least one
:44:47. > :44:52.more in the red bit and gets it! So early advantage to Fitton but not
:44:53. > :44:56.devicive as yet. Just 25 ahead. Having to work his way
:44:57. > :44:59.devicive as yet. Just 25 ahead. route to the treble 20 blocked
:45:00. > :45:07.slightly. Good dart, good adjustment. Well, at this stage, to
:45:08. > :45:15.start a leg tonne, tonne, you would take it. Especially when you're
:45:16. > :45:24.throwing first. Darryl must break or he's out. Still, that narrow lead of
:45:25. > :45:32.just 25. Harbour maintaining advantage. Great first dart. Fitton
:45:33. > :45:36.can do no more than stand and wait. And then, try
:45:37. > :45:40.can do no more than stand and wait. very best. Which he'll need with
:45:41. > :45:47.Harbour scoring like that! He is on a finish.
:45:48. > :45:54.Well, it would be a fitting end to the match. A 161.
:45:55. > :46:04., so can he do it? He's got six darts from here, because Fitton is
:46:05. > :46:09.not on a finish. He doesn't have to checkout this time, he can just move
:46:10. > :46:11.himself into a perhaps almost invincible position. Treble 17. So
:46:12. > :46:15.now, he just sets it up, invincible position. Treble 17. So
:46:16. > :46:20.to see what Fitton can deliver. How about that?
:46:21. > :46:32.Well, for the first time, possibly all match, we have a firm favourite.
:46:33. > :46:39.Darryl Fitton missed six darts win this match. For the first time,
:46:40. > :46:47.Dennis Harbour has a match dart. And it's a double 12.
:46:48. > :46:59.No! Small adjustment. Good marker. Oh, no he has to go across to the
:47:00. > :47:07.other side of the board. Double six. Great dart! ! And what a tussle
:47:08. > :47:14.Darryl Fitton will feel that he's thrown that one away. He had a match
:47:15. > :47:19.dart and couldn't take them, but Dennis Harbour hung in there, and
:47:20. > :47:27.ultimately triumphs in sudden death, and now, having been so cool, so
:47:28. > :47:35.composed, he shows a real display of emotion, a battle royale, and the
:47:36. > :47:41.man from Cambridgeshire, Dennis Harbour, has put out one of the
:47:42. > :47:50.seeds, Darryl Fitton. Indeed, what a day for Dennis. And Craig Caldwell
:47:51. > :47:57.won his qualifying in fine style. He'll face Ted Hankey tomorrow,
:47:58. > :48:02.And awin for the American, Larry Butler. And he negotiated his way
:48:03. > :48:12.past More darts on the way into the maul
:48:13. > :48:18.hours with Rob walker. But what a phenomenal first day. Some big names
:48:19. > :48:22.were shown the exit door. Will it be the same tomorrow? The afternoon,
:48:23. > :49:00.the turn of Ted Hankey and Scott Mitchell among others. Don't miss
:49:01. > :49:04.You'd better come in with a brilliant product.
