:01:56. > :01:59.the press kit boards -- practice boards. Today's quarter-finalists
:02:00. > :02:03.are getting ready to do battle. Ted Hankey is staying out of direct
:02:03. > :02:07.sunlight. You'll be taking on the have Martin Atkins, who has thrown
:02:07. > :02:11.well this morning. He is getting ready for that the seating. Forget
:02:12. > :02:21.about tonight's quarter-finals, it's about what happened last night.

:02:25. > :02:31.Tony O'Shea would need to bring his a game to the stage last night as
:02:31. > :02:35.he faced the man they all wanted to avoid. Martin Adams would no doubt

:02:58. > :03:01.his second quarter-final. We also take time out to look at the new
:03:01. > :03:07.breed of referees this year at the lakeside. Both of them are too
:03:07. > :03:11.young to shave. We will begin to -- with Paul Jennings against Wesley
:03:11. > :03:19.Harms. They settled in with consummate ease but last night one
:03:20. > :03:29.of them named of voyages had it to capsize. -- one of them name of
:03:30. > :03:32.
:03:32. > :03:38.I've got a feeling, why should I be under pressure? I'm a new kid and
:03:38. > :03:46.we will see what happens. I've got nothing to lose up their. I'm not
:03:46. > :03:52.happy with the way I've played. I know I can sharpen up my game.
:03:52. > :03:59.While I'm in the competition, I want to progress and get better.
:03:59. > :04:04.I've played Paul two-times and I have never won. It's... He is a
:04:04. > :04:08.great player. He's not so -- shows so much so far but what I've seen
:04:08. > :04:14.on the tour is great. Hopefully he will hit it tonight but I will hit
:04:14. > :04:17.it tonight and it will be a cracking game. I will just do my
:04:17. > :04:27.own thing and keeping the background and let him worry about
:04:27. > :04:32.me. I don't know how he is feeling that I will enjoy it. Every second.
:04:32. > :04:37.Maybe my face will not look that way but I will enjoy it. It is
:04:37. > :04:47.first to five sets and rejoin it perfectly balanced at 2-2 and at
:04:47. > :04:54.
:04:54. > :05:04.last set. He is straight in with a treble 20. He will be pleased.

:05:04. > :05:46.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds
:05:46. > :05:56.There we go again. Just over the the trouble. That is when you let
:05:56. > :06:06.your opponent in. Look at that four-set average there, he is
:06:06. > :06:09.
:06:09. > :06:13.starting to finish more regularly. This is good nick match where... He
:06:13. > :06:23.has started steadily here, Paul Jennings, but has not been able to
:06:23. > :06:57.
:06:57. > :07:07.nine. Double 16. How about that then? That is the perfect 15 dark
:07:07. > :07:17.leg from Wesley Harms. I gave him a good talking-to at the break.
:07:17. > :07:17.
:07:17. > :08:27.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds
:08:27. > :08:37.solid, not exactly spectacular, wants treble 17. Unlucky. A grim us
:08:37. > :08:46.
:08:46. > :08:52.there. I think he fancied his throws. A simple double 12 from now.
:08:52. > :09:02.He has just slipped into the single line. So 15 left. Double four,
:09:02. > :09:23.
:09:23. > :09:33.which he will never miss... Except him. He will have to move, surely.
:09:33. > :09:34.
:09:34. > :09:44.He has left himself double one. Will he get a chance and it? It is
:09:44. > :09:47.
:09:47. > :09:57.double eight to raise the roof! Unlucky, Paul Jennings. Double one.
:09:57. > :10:11.
:10:11. > :10:21.from the break but after the break, he is two legs down here. The thing
:10:21. > :10:21.
:10:21. > :10:31.is, on the double one, you don't have to work out which way you are
:10:31. > :10:31.
:10:31. > :11:32.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds
:11:32. > :11:37.going for it. The only fear is fear and then 140. In a leg that he
:11:37. > :11:47.started, he is at the moment only 50 points ahead. This is always a
:11:47. > :11:48.
:11:48. > :11:58.good time to put in 140 or 180, as Wesley Harms has just done. OK, we
:11:58. > :12:17.
:12:18. > :12:27.leaves double top. He has hit this under pressure a few times already.
:12:28. > :12:40.
:12:40. > :12:50.lead, 3-2. Double 12. Well, that was the quickest set we've had so
:12:50. > :13:03.
:13:04. > :13:13.far. Spotty is plugged in! -- is tuned up now. For Tom a paddle
:13:14. > :13:15.
:13:15. > :13:22.and off he goes. -- foot on the pedal. A good set, that. The girls
:13:22. > :13:27.are in, watching the darts. Jennings said he would bring his
:13:28. > :13:33.game to the stage tonight and I still say he has borrowed somebody
:13:33. > :13:43.else's. He knows he can play much better than others and this is
:13:43. > :13:52.
:13:52. > :13:58.playing darts now. She plays in a little pub in California. It's a
:13:58. > :14:04.true story. It's her boyfriend, isn't it, who is in a darts team.
:14:04. > :14:07.She went on to join in a match. she and joined it. She has an open
:14:07. > :14:13.invitation to the world championships, should she wish to
:14:13. > :14:23.break -- grace us with her presence. I would love to see her and Ted

:14:23. > :15:36.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds
:15:36. > :15:39.scores away on finishing. Yes, one- way traffic at the moment. It
:15:39. > :15:49.doesn't matter where they are for Wesley Harms, he is finding the
:15:49. > :16:00.
:16:00. > :16:09.target. It is a game of two halves Paul to start getting some legs.
:16:09. > :16:19.does not want to be two sets down. To be honest, he doesn't have to up
:16:19. > :16:25.
:16:25. > :16:31.his game much to address the himself more opportunity to miss a
:16:31. > :16:41.few doubles. 13 out of 35 now, as opposed to nine out of 27. There is
:16:41. > :16:41.
:16:41. > :17:54.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds
:17:54. > :18:04.not much difference in the overall people cheering for Paul Jennings.
:18:04. > :18:25.
:18:25. > :18:28.He needs to give them more of that involved now. He is not exactly a
:18:28. > :18:32.crowd favourite but there is a lot of goodwill behind short -- Paul
:18:32. > :18:42.Jennings, as the Englishman against the Dutchman here. If he could just
:18:42. > :19:01.
:19:01. > :19:11.get it going a bit, they would all a finish. He has done it, it leaves
:19:11. > :19:36.

:19:39. > :19:45.affects him. You want to know your loved ones are with you, don't you?
:19:45. > :19:55.Sometimes you can thrive on their support. Double top to hold his
:19:55. > :20:13.
:20:13. > :20:21.throw here. And they've read this. double top. -- in comes Wesley. He
:20:21. > :20:31.made up for it. They go did just that there, wasn't it? Very nice.

:22:37. > :22:38.
:22:38. > :22:48.Bull. -- the bull. Wesley Harms could take the set in the next two
:22:48. > :22:49.
:22:49. > :22:55.darts. Double 16. Oh, dear, not quite ready. He is making sure he
:22:55. > :23:02.has got the rights court. He makes sure he has got the right double!
:23:02. > :23:07.He makes sure that he goes to sets up. Is the writing on to the wall
:23:07. > :23:14.for the Jennings clan now, as Wesley Harms does some harm and
:23:14. > :23:24.Leeds 4-2. Thank you, ladies and gentlemen. It is Paul to throw
:23:24. > :23:36.
:23:36. > :23:43.Jennings, he needs to find momentum, consistency, big scores as doubles.
:23:43. > :23:52.They are there somewhere but as the Lions Hamer's and their beasts
:23:52. > :23:57.assemble around the tables, of the vultures circling? Since that first
:23:57. > :24:03.break, it is this lad here who has done the damage. He really has. He
:24:03. > :24:13.has had plenty of tonnes. He finishes straight away. He has got
:24:13. > :24:26.
:24:26. > :24:36.every chance to be in the semi- performance. Look at that, look at
:24:36. > :24:36.
:24:36. > :25:33.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds
:25:33. > :25:37.good 15 dart leg. Looks very simple indeed for Wesley Harms. He quite
:25:37. > :25:43.fancies an early night here and doesn't want to hang around for
:25:43. > :25:49.three more sets, certainly. It is a grim picture so far for his family.

:25:59. > :26:04.
:26:04. > :26:12.Hartlepool. And remember, as we get to the serious business that the --
:26:12. > :26:17.the Lakeside, seven have won the title at the first attempt. The the
:26:17. > :26:26.last person was a Dutchman. We might still yet get to a Dutchman
:26:26. > :26:36.in the final in 2012. That is a good one, plenty of room left. Too
:26:36. > :27:00.
:27:00. > :27:03.Tony. Come on, step in. That's it! 180! That is what we expect from
:27:03. > :27:13.Jennings but he has not performed tonight. At least he has got the
:27:13. > :27:22.
:27:23. > :27:32.crowd on his side now. Taking him double top with Wesley a long way

:28:15. > :28:25.Double seven it is. And he has busted. No-score. Is a that the

:28:39. > :28:44.change of luck he needs? Double ten. charity for Paul Jennings. Paul to
:28:44. > :28:52.throw first. One thing is for certain, they've certainly got

:31:41. > :31:46.row. -- rattling off six sets in a the way. I just wonder if Paul
:31:46. > :31:56.Jennings, with his average which is 14 points below look Wesley Harms,
:31:56. > :32:02.
:32:02. > :32:12.could raise his game enough to give set yet still lost it against

:32:25. > :32:31.Wesley Harms. It is not all about would say so! And there is twice
:32:31. > :32:38.the noise when Paul Jennings hit a double than when Wesley Harms does.
:32:38. > :32:41.The crowd are here, in the majority, for Jennings. They are not against
:32:41. > :32:51.Wesley, by any stretch, but there is a lot of backing out there for
:32:51. > :33:09.
:33:09. > :33:19.Jennings. This, though, a crucial against Dean Winstanley, when he
:33:19. > :33:25.
:33:25. > :33:35.notice how the crowd of all gone quiet now. Gathering themselves for
:33:35. > :33:35.
:33:35. > :34:30.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds
:34:30. > :34:33.two darts. But the third isn't magical if he can do it. I think
:34:33. > :34:43.you should start with a treble printing, follow it with a treble
:34:43. > :34:43.
:34:43. > :35:32.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds
:35:32. > :35:41.20. I think his daughter's thought in the semi-finals. Well, six of
:35:41. > :35:51.the best before 2012. Van Barneveld, who started the brilliance that we
:35:51. > :36:00.
:36:00. > :36:08.much better than he is, and might still reached a height, like
:36:08. > :36:18.Jennings did just there. Jan Dekker, last year. The man in charge now of
:36:18. > :36:18.
:36:18. > :37:02.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds
:37:02. > :37:12.and it is over. And if Paul Jennings doesn't break here, he
:37:12. > :37:20.
:37:20. > :37:30.might have a Herculean task ahead times in the match. Jennings has
:37:30. > :37:40.been broken seven times. Neither totally comfortable on the throw.
:37:40. > :37:48.
:37:48. > :37:58.We have seen a few matches like tension starts. Evident in that
:37:58. > :38:05.
:38:05. > :38:15.and it is. If he can just find a way to force the issue, put Harms
:38:15. > :38:35.
:38:35. > :38:45.under a bit of scrutiny. That could there. Hermann, in the quarter-
:38:45. > :38:45.
:38:45. > :39:31.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds
:39:31. > :39:41.the outset. This might be the easier one for him. He is under
:39:41. > :39:41.
:39:41. > :40:49.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds
:40:49. > :40:55.enough pressure without losing looks good now. Right from the
:40:55. > :41:05.outset, with that bounce out, this leg has become a lot easier for
:41:05. > :41:24.
:41:24. > :41:29.Wesley Harms. But he has produced thing is, it has all gone wrong for
:41:29. > :41:33.Paul Jennings in this leg. He had to hold his throw, he is struggling
:41:33. > :41:43.to get down to a finish. That might be the last we see of the man from
:41:43. > :42:00.
:42:00. > :42:05.Hartlepool. Double top for the comes along, Debbie tent, and he is
:42:05. > :42:15.in the semi-final. He is there in the last four, and you cannot deny
:42:15. > :42:18.
:42:18. > :42:23.him. Are we going to get another Bobby George has his best shirt on.
:42:23. > :42:27.There is one thing about Harms, before we get into the averages, he
:42:27. > :42:32.is a competitor. He wants a good game, he went his opponent to play
:42:32. > :42:37.better than Jennings did last night. I think Jennings didn't turn up in
:42:37. > :42:41.the way he predicted he would do. I think the pace of the game slowed
:42:41. > :42:47.them both down, and Wesley couldn't get quite in tweed, but when he did,
:42:47. > :42:52.he was a fine player. He is calm, composed, he has a good future.
:42:52. > :42:56.the right attitude. He has talked about it already. We won't give
:42:56. > :43:03.away he is playing in the semi- finals, but he says he hopes they
:43:04. > :43:08.bring their a game. That is a refreshing attitude. Well, he
:43:08. > :43:15.probably says that, but he hopes they will play bad, to be honest
:43:15. > :43:22.with you. He is really focused, at his game. But he didn't play as
:43:22. > :43:28.well as he did in the previous match. It was a bit of a non-event,
:43:28. > :43:33.they both went to sleep, when Harms got on top, he produced better
:43:33. > :43:39.darts. But he deserves his spot, he played better than Jennings last
:43:39. > :43:44.light. Jennings has reached the quarter-final on his debut, he has
:43:44. > :43:49.won three ranking tournament on the way. But will he be a bit
:43:49. > :43:52.disappointed? I think he might be. You don't mind going out if you
:43:52. > :43:56.know you play your best darts on the night, and there is no way Paul
:43:56. > :44:02.Jennings played his best darts last night. That will be his major
:44:02. > :44:08.disappointment. Wesley Mr dart for the set in three or four sets, and
:44:08. > :44:11.he didn't punish him. So the chances were there. But he will go
:44:11. > :44:18.away, learn from this, and come back next year, and I think we will
:44:18. > :44:24.see a better player. Can you see Harms stepping up with a 98 average
:44:24. > :44:27.in the semi-final, honestly? No, I don't think he can. At the
:44:27. > :44:35.beginning of the week, I thought he could, but I don't think he can, I
:44:35. > :44:41.think that is the best he can play. He has been a real character, he
:44:41. > :44:51.calls Rob Walker Sherlock Holmes because of his waistcoat. Talking
:44:51. > :45:12.
:45:12. > :45:16.about characters, let's look ahead One of the two quarter-finals we
:45:16. > :45:20.have got tonight should be a cracker. They should call this man
:45:20. > :45:25.the comeback Kid after that performance against Dean Winstanley.
:45:25. > :45:30.I bet you're raring to go, your first quarter-final. Can't wait. I
:45:30. > :45:35.will play now! Have you had a lot of support after that epic win in
:45:35. > :45:40.the second round? A lot of people feel you are too nice to win, but
:45:40. > :45:48.you could across the line. I just dug in, I have fought hard, me and
:45:48. > :45:53.been always have close games, it is usually by the odd leg. Nice, I
:45:53. > :45:57.don't know about that, sometimes! You are standing next to your
:45:57. > :46:01.opponent, who I understand you gave a lift over two. What do you make
:46:01. > :46:06.of what he has achieved this week? It has been pretty special. It has
:46:06. > :46:11.been, he is a very talented guy. He can play the game to a high ability.
:46:11. > :46:16.It is going to be a great game tonight. We will see if he gets a
:46:16. > :46:22.lift home! You're helping us out of a bit of translation. I wonder if
:46:22. > :46:32.we can ask Kristian what he has made of this Lakeside experience?
:46:32. > :46:54.
:46:54. > :46:59.Is he aware of the waves he has He just said, he is relaxed, he is
:46:59. > :47:03.enjoying everything, and he is ready for the match tonight. What
:47:03. > :47:07.about two very important days in Hull, when he qualified, not only
:47:07. > :47:17.for the World Masters, but for Lakeside. That could turn out to be
:47:17. > :47:28.
:47:28. > :47:32.He says, those were the best two days in my life, it was an amazing
:47:32. > :47:38.weekend, he is very happy. Do you think this guy is going to be
:47:38. > :47:44.getting a lift home if he knocks him out? Maybe a day later! If he
:47:44. > :47:47.is nice. Are you enjoying this week? You have been around a while,
:47:47. > :47:53.but you really have started to produce some of your very best
:47:53. > :47:57.Arrows. I am very relaxed this week, not too many problems, I have been
:47:57. > :48:02.looking forward to it for a long time. I have been out in Holland
:48:02. > :48:12.for three months, I have had time to practise, get myself ready. I am
:48:12. > :48:31.
:48:31. > :48:35.well up for it. It is going to be Now, on the subject of finals, we
:48:35. > :48:45.are down to the last two in the Ladies' Championship, arguably the
:48:45. > :49:22.
:49:22. > :49:32.this. Really good match. Deta Hedman, did have one dart for a

:04:47. > :04:57.wants them, from 61 for the set. -- pressure here. 100 is good. It
:04:57. > :04:58.
:04:58. > :05:04.might not be good enough. Double 18 for the set. A long way off.
:05:04. > :05:11.Getting there. But not near enough. We are back to that first leg where
:05:11. > :05:21.the Russian is choking under the pressure at the does ascend. -- at

:06:45. > :07:52.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds
:07:52. > :08:02.first set but that was a first set that went with the darts. Maybe and
:08:02. > :08:08.
:08:08. > :08:15.18 here for a bullseye. Or indeed a 12. It leaves a finish and of
:08:15. > :08:19.course, the �3,000 for the highest checkout of the week applies to
:08:19. > :08:24.both the men's and the women's world championship. We have already
:08:24. > :08:32.seen Rhian Edwards this week hit the highest ever finish in the
:08:32. > :08:42.women's world championship, at 155. But how about 170? There is the
:08:42. > :08:43.
:08:43. > :08:53.first one. Oh! Couldn't give us a shot at the ball but she finishes
:08:53. > :08:53.
:08:53. > :09:03.very nicely. -- at the bull. Anastasia Dobromyslova was very
:09:03. > :09:13.
:09:13. > :09:19.Double nine. Double three. But I think she needs to go for it. Now,
:09:19. > :09:27.that is going to be tricky for Gunther, if she comes back. -- for
:09:27. > :09:33.Gulliver. Double 18, or she might choose to follow it in. She did.
:09:33. > :09:43.She sadly could not get the trouble she needed. Once again, Gulliver
:09:43. > :10:04.
:10:04. > :10:14.poor hearing herself a glass of straight in with double top and we
:10:14. > :10:14.

:11:10. > :11:20.We've got a long way to go tonight. We could still be playing this at
:11:20. > :11:28.

:11:38. > :12:04.
:12:04. > :12:11.Gulliver. After that first start, you almost expected to hit 140. A
:12:11. > :12:15.couple of ricochets. Usually she would find the treble 20. She is
:12:15. > :12:20.not far off. A know, and it is on the doubles where she has missed a
:12:20. > :12:24.lot and has let Anastasia Dobromyslova back in again. That is
:12:24. > :12:34.where she is suffering in this game. But her average is better. His
:12:34. > :12:47.
:12:47. > :12:52.lost between these two. I think Trina Gulliver, if you asked her
:12:52. > :13:02.honestly, would say she should have come back to defend the trophy in
:13:02. > :13:14.
:13:14. > :13:24.2009 and it was a shame for women's the final. Trouble 17 it leaves the
:13:24. > :13:30.
:13:30. > :13:40.bullseye. -- treble 17 leaves... There is so much on the start. Can
:13:40. > :13:46.
:13:46. > :13:53.she hit straight back? No! Last time it was one double 12. Yes! She
:13:53. > :14:03.has won five legs of dance in a row and one more will see her through

:15:17. > :15:21.down? That is not a calm down side, that is a slow it down the side.
:15:21. > :15:31.Tony, let her play her own game. She is in the world championships,
:15:31. > :15:31.
:15:31. > :15:40.you are not, mate. He has been here once. He lost in 2001 in the first

:15:49. > :15:52.the walk to the board, that is Anastasia playing here normal game.
:15:52. > :15:56.She is more than good enough without dawdling, dwelling and
:15:56. > :16:03.taking her time upon the oche. She doesn't have to play as a slow
:16:03. > :16:08.player. She is not. That's it. That's fine. I don't understand why
:16:08. > :16:18.she feels the necessity to introduce a bit of gamesman a ship
:16:18. > :16:34.
:16:34. > :16:44.into this much. -- gamesmanship trouble twenties and double 16. She
:16:44. > :17:04.
:17:04. > :17:12.needs something to get her going. - never for the golden girl. Possibly
:17:12. > :17:22.taking a silver medal here this evening. Treble 18. It would have
:17:22. > :17:26.
:17:26. > :17:33.left double 16. 92. That is good. Trina Gulliver has never lost
:17:33. > :17:39.before the final but Anastasia Dobromyslova with her dark at 88,
:17:39. > :17:45.for the match, to knock out Trina Gulliver in the semi-finals. The
:17:45. > :17:54.champion of 2000 to date, through to the final in 2012. -- 2008.
:17:54. > :18:01.Trina Gulliver goes down to the Anastasia will take some stopping
:18:01. > :18:06.you feel but Deta Hedman is hitting the high scores. Joiners at 5
:18:06. > :18:10.o'clock today. Here are the leading ladies with Rob Walker.
:18:10. > :18:15.The first lake side macro champion of 2012 will be one of these two
:18:15. > :18:18.ladies. Anastasia, a word from the first of all. It is never easy to
:18:18. > :18:22.beat Trina Gulliver on the big stage and because of you, this will
:18:22. > :18:27.be the first final without her. guess so, because I beat her
:18:27. > :18:34.yesterday. I'm enjoying my game. I enjoyed the atmosphere, the crowd
:18:34. > :18:41.and may the best lady win tonight! Is it nice to be back in the fold?
:18:41. > :18:45.Yeah, it is. It is your first final, are you feeling relaxed? Yeah, I'm
:18:45. > :18:49.fine. No worries this year. Have you felt any pressure coming here
:18:49. > :18:53.this year? Not at all because I've been number one seed in many other
:18:53. > :18:57.things but no, I just take it as it comes. I've worked hard to get
:18:57. > :19:01.there. I'm fine. What has been different for you this year? What
:19:01. > :19:08.has got you to the final in 2012 that hasn't got you there in the
:19:08. > :19:12.past? The always each year, there is something. Above all, I only
:19:13. > :19:16.work four days a week now. I put in my 40 hours in four days so why
:19:16. > :19:21.have Friday of so I can relax before the tournament. Whereas
:19:21. > :19:25.before, I had to work and get and play without sleep also this year,
:19:25. > :19:30.I feel fine and I've taken a week off, instead of normally I go and
:19:30. > :19:34.work and come back. This year, had decided to have a whole week off.
:19:34. > :19:38.Anastasia, before the match with Trina Gulliver, we are absolutely
:19:38. > :19:48.confident she would win? Well, I believed in myself. You have to do
:19:48. > :19:50.
:19:50. > :19:53.that. If I thought... What would it mean to win a settle -- second
:19:53. > :19:58.world title? You know the pressure now and the quality of opponent.
:19:58. > :20:04.But the beat something pretty big. Yes, of course. I have done my job
:20:04. > :20:07.as well and hopefully I will do my best. What sort of much of
:20:07. > :20:12.expecting between the two of you? You always see Trina Gulliver in
:20:12. > :20:16.the final and she tends to dictate the pace. What is going to happen
:20:16. > :20:21.between the two of you? How will it unfold? Going back from how Anna
:20:21. > :20:25.and I'd normally play, we normally play very good. It is normally
:20:25. > :20:34.explosive and may the best woman the win on the night. That is how
:20:34. > :20:38.we always play. I am sure you are going to put on a good show. We've
:20:38. > :20:43.been very polite with one another. May the best woman win as you have
:20:43. > :20:46.but said. It is perfectly poised. Let's talk
:20:46. > :20:51.about Deta Hedman. She should be world champion by now and she may
:20:51. > :20:55.become Six o'clock tonight. only woman I know that works nights
:20:55. > :20:58.but has an there for all performed at night time. She has won
:20:58. > :21:00.everything in this game including a World Masters years ago as well. I
:21:01. > :21:05.would love to see Peter had then become a world champion. She
:21:05. > :21:13.deserves it for the years she has been in the sport. Can you imagine
:21:13. > :21:23.the speed at which Deta Hedman... What about Anastasia? She is a
:21:23. > :21:27.
:21:27. > :21:33.ballsy player. Yeah, she has slowed her game down. There is no rule to
:21:33. > :21:40.say she cannot. If she does the same in the final, who says she
:21:40. > :21:44.can't? I think personally it is who starts off really good in that
:21:44. > :21:49.final. They are about the same, then two goals. They're both good
:21:49. > :21:53.finishers and they score well. Weather starts off... It is a short
:21:53. > :21:58.format, it is not like the guys. You've got to get in quick and win
:21:58. > :22:01.the match. It is not an easy match for them. It is good to have
:22:01. > :22:03.Anastasia back because she brings an edge to it and a little bit of
:22:03. > :22:09.aggression. Someone would say a bit of arrogance. It makes it
:22:09. > :22:12.compulsive to watch. Have not watched in a these matches much of
:22:12. > :22:16.that semi-final. She has her regal air about him which I like. She has
:22:16. > :22:20.an amazing darts talent. I don't think she should have slowed it
:22:20. > :22:25.down at last night, she didn't need to. Her game is good enough. She
:22:25. > :22:29.didn't do anything wrong. In the spirit of the game, they do have a
:22:29. > :22:35.bit more respect next time. She is through and Trina Gulliver is not.
:22:35. > :22:39.She did a professional job. At 5 o'clock today, it is, the ladies'
:22:39. > :22:44.final. In the men's game, there are eight debutants this year but you
:22:44. > :22:49.would be wrong to think that. There are 10. That's thanks to new
:22:49. > :22:55.referees. We have one from Holland and one from Wales. They were both
:22:55. > :23:04.given their big chance to shine By Martin Fitzmaurice. Let us play
:23:04. > :23:12.The atmosphere was incredible. It was beyond anything I thought. It's
:23:12. > :23:16.brilliant, absolutely fantastic. I was completely overwhelmed and I
:23:16. > :23:20.had a job keeping myself together, let alone keeping the players
:23:20. > :23:28.together. An 18 year-old is in charge of this match and is doing a
:23:28. > :23:33.good job. He made his debut as a referee, aged 17. The is 18 years
:23:33. > :23:37.old now. He was nervous before his first-round match and you would be,
:23:37. > :23:43.wouldn't you? But he has done very, very well. He was keen to do it, he
:23:43. > :23:48.wanted to do the job. He went up there and he was... That was it.
:23:48. > :23:54.After two games, as it he is good enough and we have known Marco over
:23:54. > :23:58.in Holland for quite a while. They are both competent. To walk on the
:23:58. > :24:08.stage like they've done in the last few days, they are around for a
:24:08. > :24:22.
:24:22. > :24:27.long time. The referee for this I am a terrible darts player and
:24:27. > :24:34.I'm good at maths. I'm good at counting. I tried it once and they
:24:34. > :24:44.said, get on with it. I have been to the bigger tournaments in
:24:44. > :24:47.Holland and Belgium. I did a World Masters about three months ago and
:24:47. > :24:52.that was quite nerve-racking at the time but I've never known an
:24:52. > :25:02.atmosphere like it. This is unique. I know a lot of people say that but
:25:02. > :25:05.
:25:05. > :25:12.it genuinely is true. 140! She had a bounce out and it fell on the
:25:12. > :25:20.ground. I couldn't find it so I asked for help. It was unbelievable.
:25:20. > :25:30.It was a good moment. I'm going to ask later in the week, can I have
:25:30. > :25:30.
:25:30. > :26:14.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds
:26:14. > :26:18.three darts at the stage? That's Not a bad player, the little man
:26:18. > :26:24.from Wales. It is more than being a referee. There is a showmanship to
:26:24. > :26:28.it. Where did that begin, these screams of 180 and everything?
:26:28. > :26:38.Years ago, it was a bit boring but Tony Green was the one he started
:26:38. > :26:38.
:26:38. > :26:47.it. He couldn't say 100. He would say when hundreds. He did it. I
:26:47. > :26:54.said, that doesn't sound right. So he would say one... Hundred.
:26:54. > :26:58.They've all got their different style. You need a good voice to do
:26:58. > :27:07.it. You cannot have a rabbit's voice. You need a powerful voice.
:27:07. > :27:16.That little Welsh guy... It's weird but he is unique. We've all got our
:27:16. > :27:18.different ways. What is a rabbit's voice?! Last night, again in the
:27:18. > :27:22.second of our quarter-finals, it was between two men who've been
:27:22. > :27:26.there but only one of them has got the T-shirt. He is the defending
:27:26. > :27:36.champion, going for three in a row. Its Martin Adams Richter, a man who
:27:36. > :27:42.
:27:42. > :27:52.is in sparkling form, Tony O'Shea. England's captain, the number-one

:54:43. > :54:48.It was a very tight set, the 4th, they knew how significant it was,
:54:48. > :54:57.but you are looking at a man hitting 105, as good as anything

:55:15. > :55:18.Adams brought his game, O'Shea didn't lose his bottle, and we are
:55:18. > :55:23.in this marvellous situation, both of them believe they could hit
:55:23. > :55:28.anything. It was shown up when Adams had a 160 finish on after

:55:38. > :55:39.

:55:57. > :56:00.but I bet he isn't really! When he has got the confidence, O'Shea,

:13:16. > :13:24.like that, didn't he?! And what a time to hit that 180. Adams will
:13:24. > :13:32.leave himself a double ten. Tony, you require 81. What a Brega throw
:13:32. > :13:42.this could be. It's double 12! Yes! He smashed that leg from out of
:13:42. > :13:48.nowhere. The missile has landed, like an Exocet. If it was looking
:13:48. > :13:58.serious for the defending champion, it is very grave indeed now.
:13:58. > :14:23.
:14:23. > :14:33.only 45 to start. Has he let Adams done yet. But Adams, wavering a
:14:33. > :14:41.
:14:41. > :14:45.touch. It is the odd dart that with just 100 because he is not on
:14:45. > :14:49.a finish, Tony O'Shea. Adams has got to do to O'Shea auto shaded to

:14:59. > :15:00.
:15:00. > :15:06.tricky. And he did not floated to where he wanted it. He is maybe
:15:06. > :15:12.getting a sinking feeling here. Interesting expression from him.
:15:12. > :15:20.When O'Shea broke at the start of this said, he smiled and applauded
:15:20. > :15:30.but was it a sort of smile that said, too good! Earth was it an
:15:30. > :15:31.
:15:31. > :15:39.accepting defeat smile? -- was it. Tony O'Shea looks to move within a

:16:04. > :16:14.coming back to bite him. Tops for Tony O'Shea! Two 10s. Yes! He is on
:16:14. > :16:16.
:16:16. > :16:22.fire tonight! Sweet, sweet music for Tony O'Shea, this. Martin Adams,
:16:22. > :16:30.the defending champion, is close to going out and suddenly, he is
:16:30. > :16:35.smiling about it. Is it a smile of resignation? It is a smile because
:16:35. > :16:44.actually, he is enjoying the scrap. Make no mistake, he has raised his
:16:44. > :16:50.game tonight as well. He has played his part in this but under the
:16:50. > :17:00.pressure that Tony O'Shea has applied, Adams has lost that
:17:00. > :17:30.
:17:30. > :17:34.greatest victories ever. Then you start to think about it and that is
:17:34. > :17:40.when mistakes creep in. He shouldn't mind too much if he loses
:17:40. > :17:45.this leg because Adams had first throw. But it is also conversely
:17:45. > :17:55.the leg where the pressure is not on Tony O'Shea to win it and it

:20:12. > :20:19.In the Groove, Tony O'Shea. One thing is for sure, if Tony O'Shea
:20:19. > :20:25.does win, he has beaten Martin Adams. Adams has not contributed to
:20:25. > :20:30.his own downfall, not a bit of it. If you look at history, 2000 to
:20:30. > :20:39.date, but Adams lost to Mark Webster. -- 2000 date. Webster won
:20:39. > :20:43.the championship. 180! This puts him in pole position. In 2009,
:20:43. > :20:48.Adams lost to Ted Hankey and he won the World Championship. Are we
:20:48. > :20:57.going to see Tony O'Shea move into the last four and mentally put one
:20:57. > :21:04.hand on the trophy? He wants 96. Single 16th, he has slipped into
:21:04. > :21:14.the single seven. That was his preferred way of doing it because
:21:14. > :21:18.
:21:18. > :21:28.Adams has so far back. Two of them. 120! Still not on a finish. This is
:21:28. > :21:31.
:21:31. > :21:35.much point. Double 16.! Yes! And Tony O'Shea has exercised a --
:21:35. > :21:45.exorcised every single demon in the locker to move into the last four.
:21:45. > :21:46.
:21:46. > :21:56.What an epic performance from the underdog! The champion is out. A
:21:56. > :22:04.champion at said for the Champion Your first semi-final line-up.
:22:04. > :22:08.Before we even get to your... How does that much last night? That is
:22:08. > :22:11.number one, as we stand. The final against Ted in 2009, the reaction
:22:11. > :22:15.of the crowd that day I thought would never be beaten but after
:22:15. > :22:21.last night, that is number one. You were more like a wrestler last
:22:21. > :22:31.night than the the Tony O'Shea reader. I mean the bravado of the
:22:31. > :22:31.
:22:31. > :22:35.confidence. And the clinical celebration. It is something I've
:22:35. > :22:38.been working on, trying to concentrate more. I know I've
:22:38. > :22:43.always had the game but not always the mind to go once do well in the
:22:43. > :22:49.big tournaments. If you cannot have sorted that out there. You say you
:22:50. > :22:59.have to beat the man to be the man. We're only halfway in the
:22:59. > :23:03.tournament. There's a lot of darts to play it. You have probably faced
:23:03. > :23:06.snowmen before who have warned fingerless gloves. I don't think
:23:06. > :23:13.you are overawed by this one because you like someone to bring a
:23:13. > :23:17.good game, BA proper competitive. Yeah, everybody says something
:23:17. > :23:21.different but if someone is playing well, I can get myself up in there.
:23:21. > :23:26.I can play well as well. I think the next game will be interesting.
:23:26. > :23:30.Before you arrived for a debut, you would have watched the likes of
:23:30. > :23:33.Tony O'Shea. You were watching last night knowing that you're going to
:23:33. > :23:38.be playing would have these huge stars in the semi-final. You must
:23:38. > :23:43.be in a dream world. I added a dream world right now but if I'm
:23:43. > :23:49.really honest, the first round I thought, all right, I will never
:23:49. > :23:55.win. But I won. In the second round, Robbie Green, a thought this is
:23:55. > :23:59.going to be the heavy one. It was a heavy one but I want that much as
:23:59. > :24:02.well. Against Paul Jennings, the same feelings. Every round is
:24:03. > :24:08.different but yeah. All the big names are left right now and dime
:24:08. > :24:13.between them. It's nice. Tony, what are your thoughts on this man? He's
:24:13. > :24:16.shown a lot of bottle for a youngster. I think the young Dutch
:24:16. > :24:22.kids that are around at the moment, they Playtop darts against each
:24:22. > :24:26.other all the time. But pretty normal for them guys. -- it is
:24:26. > :24:30.pretty normal. I know Wisley is a good player but to do it on the big
:24:30. > :24:34.stage is really impressive. He is well of May doing it at the moment.
:24:34. > :24:39.We know what one semi-final is but we don't know about the other. We
:24:39. > :24:45.will find out tonight. Tony, run your eye over these. Christian Kist
:24:45. > :24:52.is the other electric Dutch were left in against Alan Norris. How do
:24:52. > :24:56.you see this going? They have both been on great form. Kristian has
:24:56. > :25:00.looked impressive. It is going to be a tight game. I can see him just
:25:00. > :25:10.speaking that from. The other one, Ted Hankey against Martin Atkins
:25:10. > :25:10.
:25:10. > :25:15.It was a tough first round. I'm now looking at Martin Atkins, another
:25:15. > :25:23.great player. Every game is going to get hard -- harder because the
:25:23. > :25:29.games are getting harder. I've no margin for a long time. -- Martin.
:25:29. > :25:34.Over the years, we've become good friends and people think Ted is Mr
:25:34. > :25:38.Nasty. That is his stage act but away from the stage, he's a lovely
:25:38. > :25:46.guy. He gave the bits of advice and stuff coming through so have got a
:25:46. > :25:50.lot of respect for him. He is a great player. We go back a long way.
:25:50. > :25:54.He has beaten me quite a few times and he has beaten me quite a few
:25:54. > :26:00.times. -- I have beaten him as well. Maybe, this could be his time. But
:26:00. > :26:05.hopefully it will not be. I want to be in the semi-finals. A different
:26:05. > :26:10.Ted someone -- sometimes comes out. Sometimes a the crowd can affect
:26:10. > :26:20.his game but sometimes that makes him play even better. I will not
:26:20. > :26:24.
:26:24. > :26:28.get involved. The this has gone so far. Obviously, I have not done
:26:28. > :26:32.anything that bad over the years. The three quarter-finals alive one
:26:32. > :26:35.there, I've ended up going to the final so hope he'll make it to
:26:35. > :26:38.another final. Who knows? You have to take every step as it goes and
:26:38. > :26:42.I'm looking forward to the game. Hopefully I will have enough to
:26:42. > :26:49.beat him. There is only one winner at the end of the week. 31 players
:26:49. > :26:52.go home. Some will have a good week, so will be out in the first round.
:26:52. > :26:56.You have worked all year and if you go out in the first round, it is
:26:56. > :26:59.heartbreaking because you got another year to wait. As it goes
:26:59. > :27:07.this week, I am now on the third game and hopefully I can keep it
:27:07. > :27:13.Bobby, this time yesterday, you got at Bangor right with the two
:27:13. > :27:17.quarter-finals. What are your thoughts? Christian Kist. Norris
:27:17. > :27:21.played well but Christian Kist has more lipstick than him. He could be
:27:21. > :27:29.the real deal. A Dutch friend of mine last night said the literal
:27:29. > :27:32.translation of his surname in Dutch his coffin. It's Friday the 13th
:27:32. > :27:37.between Ted Hankey and Christian Kist, it has to be forced off when
:27:37. > :27:44.he increase average and it? He will not need to. Martin Atkins is a
:27:44. > :27:48.steady player. Your thoughts? think Ted Hankey will beat him but
:27:48. > :27:53.I would love to see Martin Atkins beat Ted Hankey. By would love that.
:27:53. > :27:58.Who knows? I think Ted Hankey is too strong. I'm going to go for
:27:58. > :28:08.Atkins. Just because I said Ted Hankey? You are both in agreement.
:28:08. > :28:08.
:28:08. > :28:18.No. No agreement at all. Atkins. are in disagreement on of that but
:28:18. > :28:21.
:28:21. > :28:26.on the other one, we have Christian ladies' final. Highlights by the
:28:26. > :28:30.way of tonight's quarter-finals on BBC Two at 11:05pm, followed by a
