Good afternoon, we are live at the Lakeside for the women's final and | :00:35. | :00:43. | |
the first men's semifinal 2016 BDO darts championship. Frimley Green is | :00:44. | :00:51. | |
already a mass of tomfoolery, we start with Scott waits and Jamie | :00:52. | :00:57. | |
Hughes. They will need fire in their heart and ice in their veins. | :00:58. | :01:43. | |
Game, shot and the match, Jamie Hughes. Watching the drama unfold | :01:44. | :01:52. | |
here from the balcony is the coolest customer that darts has ever | :01:53. | :01:59. | |
produced, Sir Bobby George, are you all right? Quarterfinals, we are | :02:00. | :02:08. | |
left with a semifinal line-up that most people would not predict. I did | :02:09. | :02:15. | |
not expect Adams to go out in the first round and then yesterday, the | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
number one seed, a great game but he has gone. The world champion, he has | :02:19. | :02:26. | |
gone, four left. We like that it is uncertain. If you have been working | :02:27. | :02:31. | |
all week and not had a chance to catch up, see what this weekend of | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
dances going on today at the Lakeside. We have the silencer from | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
Canada but when he got to the semifinal last year, a fell off the | :02:42. | :02:48. | |
cliff, getting whitewashed, 6-0. He takes on another Dutch staff | :02:49. | :02:54. | |
bursting through the ranks. And this afternoon, we know what is going | :02:55. | :03:02. | |
down, Waites against Hughes. Scott Waits has been returning to some of | :03:03. | :03:05. | |
the form that won him the title and the grand slam of darts not long | :03:06. | :03:08. | |
ago. COMMENTATOR: Jamie Hughes told us he | :03:09. | :03:24. | |
was capable of it and he has proved it. The real ill Jamie Hughes turned | :03:25. | :03:32. | |
up there. It showed everyone that I can play darts. I am happy because I | :03:33. | :03:38. | |
proved to myself more than anyone else that I can do it on the big | :03:39. | :03:48. | |
stage. It will be 5-3, I played a great game of darts and I lost to a | :03:49. | :03:57. | |
better player. That is his seventh 180. He is relentless. It was 4-4, I | :03:58. | :04:07. | |
thought I had nicked it. He has done it again, 3-1 down, 4-2, somehow he | :04:08. | :04:17. | |
has come back from the very brink. I always struggle against him. Reason, | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
even when he had his shoulder trouble, he would always beat me. I | :04:21. | :04:26. | |
went up there determined that we would see what happened when we got | :04:27. | :04:32. | |
up there. The crowd this week have been phenomenal, the atmosphere on | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
the stage has been a electric. As soon as you walk up to throw your. , | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
it goes silent and you have to compose yourself the best you can. I | :04:41. | :04:47. | |
am in new territory, I reached the last 16 last year, I was not | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
expecting much last year to be honest, this year, I am quietly | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
confident, I shall say, stranger things have happened. After watching | :04:57. | :05:02. | |
him play, he played really well. If he plays that well and I play the | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
same game as I have played, we will get another really good semifinal | :05:08. | :05:13. | |
game. Jamie Hughes said himself that Scott Waites is a bit of a bogeyman, | :05:14. | :05:19. | |
the only stat I would take into account is the experience, the | :05:20. | :05:24. | |
younger and the fearless, the less experienced, or the guy who has been | :05:25. | :05:30. | |
here and done it. Scott was injured for a serious amount of time before | :05:31. | :05:34. | |
that head to head match. But we know that Jamie Hughes will need to | :05:35. | :05:39. | |
produce the type of darts that he produced spurts yesterday, including | :05:40. | :05:45. | |
in the first two sets where he had an average of 105 if he is to beat | :05:46. | :05:51. | |
Scott Waites, who is back to the top of his form. I have never seen Jamie | :05:52. | :05:56. | |
Hughes play that well, particularly in the first two sets, he will feel | :05:57. | :06:03. | |
like Houdini now. He comes back after a break and gets out of jail. | :06:04. | :06:08. | |
Against Glenn Durrant, the number one seed yesterday, he was 3-1 down | :06:09. | :06:14. | |
in the race to five, and he got through, in the quarterfinals he was | :06:15. | :06:20. | |
3-0 down and he won 4-3. Jamie is the underdog but he also knows that | :06:21. | :06:25. | |
if he goes ahead, he is in trouble. He has not been there, he does not | :06:26. | :06:30. | |
know what it is like. That is the way to do it, come from behind. | :06:31. | :06:36. | |
Predictions, you are going for the obvious Scott Waites win? I will go | :06:37. | :06:43. | |
for Scotty too hot tea, Houdini. We are in a situation that is a longer | :06:44. | :06:52. | |
format again. How do you do the age, experience, how will that be a | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
factor? Scott has done it a few times, he is used to it. A nosy has | :06:58. | :07:03. | |
to be up there for a while, if you are playing well, it does not seem | :07:04. | :07:06. | |
to take long but if you are playing badly, you wonder how many sets are | :07:07. | :07:12. | |
left and you are in trouble. I still have to go for Waites because he has | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
fought back and he has come up and he has been the number one seed and | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
done it all this week. We do not talk enough, you played with a | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
broken back at this stage but the fitness is everything and the | :07:27. | :07:30. | |
operation for Scott has brought him back to competing for major | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
trophies. He had a shoulder operation, his rotator cuff or | :07:35. | :07:38. | |
something, I have done that myself, it is painful, you have to have two | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
or three months with your arm in a sling. He does snatch his darts a | :07:44. | :07:49. | |
bit. But it is working for him, he has to keep going as he is going. | :07:50. | :07:57. | |
Let us go down to the stage, we will go to the master of ceremonies, | :07:58. | :08:01. | |
Richard Ashdown. Ladies and gentlemen, on behalf of the British | :08:02. | :08:09. | |
Darts Organisation, welcome to the 2016 Lakeside World Championships. | :08:10. | :08:19. | |
It is semifinals day at the Lakeside. We now introduced to the | :08:20. | :08:27. | |
stage, the reigning British champion, a former world Masters, | :08:28. | :08:35. | |
grandson of darts and Lakeside world champion, it is Scotty to hottie, | :08:36. | :08:38. | |
Scott Waites. We now introduced a former world | :08:39. | :09:58. | |
Masters finalist, the reigning Swedish open and Jersey classic | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
champion, the boy from the Black Country, Jamie Hughes. | :10:04. | :11:21. | |
Jamie reckons that come Sunday night, he can be Hughes of the world | :11:22. | :11:30. | |
but Scott Waites wants to be the daily Star. We go to our | :11:31. | :11:42. | |
commentators. COMMENTATOR: There will be an Englishman in the final | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
but will it be Jamie Hughes, the highest seed left in the draw? | :11:47. | :11:52. | |
Finally can he produce the darts he is capable of to win his | :11:53. | :11:58. | |
quarterfinal or will it be this man? The 2013 world champion from | :11:59. | :12:02. | |
Huddersfield, back from a shoulder injury and almost near his best and | :12:03. | :12:09. | |
twice this week back from the dead, they will meet either a Dutchman or | :12:10. | :12:17. | |
a Canadian in the final. Scott will throw first, game on. A Welshman | :12:18. | :12:25. | |
gets us underway in the first semifinal here at Lakeside. The | :12:26. | :12:30. | |
auditorium is already jumping. The atmosphere before a dart was thrown | :12:31. | :12:38. | |
was fantastic. Tony, this is what it is all about, semifinal Saturday? | :12:39. | :12:43. | |
And we have the greatest arts supporters in the world, they have | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
been fantastic this week. -- darts. They are in for a spectacular day. | :12:48. | :12:55. | |
In the semifinals, all four men know they will be back next year by dint | :12:56. | :13:02. | |
of qualifying for the last four, they also know they have earned at | :13:03. | :13:07. | |
least ?15,000 this week which is not a bad week 's work. And sometimes | :13:08. | :13:13. | |
you see absolute classics in the semis, as we did last year with | :13:14. | :13:21. | |
Martin Adams and Len Durrant. -- Glenn. Scott Waites with the first | :13:22. | :13:35. | |
time. On the big screens around the Lakeside, any scores over 100 are | :13:36. | :13:40. | |
marked up in red, all of the rest are in blue and there is another red | :13:41. | :13:56. | |
one. Leaves 131, and out shot. Treble 20 with the first one, cannot | :13:57. | :14:04. | |
finish now. The first to six sets, each set is a race to three legs. | :14:05. | :14:11. | |
Scott Waites with the darts in this leg so he would expect to hold. To | :14:12. | :14:21. | |
win the leg where he throws first. He is thinking about it, which way? | :14:22. | :14:30. | |
Must make sure he leaves the finish. 164 the finish. Scott Waites, double | :14:31. | :14:34. | |
16. Quickfire Waites. Scott Waites the 2013 world | :14:35. | :15:05. | |
champion. And after his shoulder troubles he is back to his best as | :15:06. | :15:12. | |
you can see already. With a maximum to get them out of their seats. So | :15:13. | :15:22. | |
much grouping there. Off we go again. He hits another treble. That | :15:23. | :15:35. | |
is the one he wanted though. Six troubles so far from Scott Waites. | :15:36. | :15:43. | |
It will be very interesting, this match. | :15:44. | :15:55. | |
77 scored. He needed that 140, Jamie Hughes. It is a chance, Scott has | :15:56. | :16:11. | |
left 177 and cannot finish. Jamie with the darts in this leg. And he | :16:12. | :16:19. | |
can't finish, not with three darts, 170 is the highest number you can | :16:20. | :16:26. | |
check out, to macro treble 20s and the bull's-eye. That takes a big | :16:27. | :16:32. | |
chunk out of 177 and he will be back for double top. He will come down | :16:33. | :16:42. | |
having blocked the bed. Double top for Scott. | :16:43. | :16:56. | |
He is happy. Good timing with the 140s. Very impressive in this set, | :16:57. | :17:14. | |
Scott waits, averaging 94 and hitting 43% of his doubles. Jamie | :17:15. | :17:22. | |
Hughes averaging just 87 with 32% of doubles. | :17:23. | :17:41. | |
To get him going, those are the average is so far this week. And | :17:42. | :17:52. | |
those are the doubles, as you can see, Scott Waites has had to win | :17:53. | :18:00. | |
many more legs. Taken to a deciding set in both his second round match | :18:01. | :18:05. | |
and his quarterfinal. A good leg, this one. No finish. 132 four Jamie | :18:06. | :18:17. | |
when he comes back. To break the throw. Treble 20, could | :18:18. | :18:31. | |
go 25, good thinking, treble 19 would have left the ball which was | :18:32. | :18:40. | |
blocked. What they call Shanghai for the set, triple, single, double. | :18:41. | :18:46. | |
That is the easy one, how about the double? He is right on it. He is in | :18:47. | :18:59. | |
the mood, Scott Waites, make no mistake. Up and down they go. This | :19:00. | :19:08. | |
is the best world darts show in the world. Did not miss a dart at the | :19:09. | :19:18. | |
double in winning back step 3-0. Five away from the final. | :19:19. | :19:27. | |
Good cover shot. Awkward now. Sensible there, no clowning about. | :19:28. | :19:59. | |
Not from Waites. Usually practices in the Frimley Green working men's | :20:00. | :20:02. | |
club, just getting away from the hustle and bustle of the Lakeside | :20:03. | :20:07. | |
country club but not today, an early start, read it in the early, early | :20:08. | :20:14. | |
in darts terms, 2:30pm. So he has been here all day. The extension of | :20:15. | :20:23. | |
the arm with his throw, there we go, right the way through. He is on a | :20:24. | :20:28. | |
finish, Jamie, 124. Treble 18, bull's-eye. Cannot take | :20:29. | :20:50. | |
it out but with Scott back on 256, he will be back. 32 left. Double 16. | :20:51. | :21:23. | |
One to go. Not a bad finish, 156, two trebles. Got to hit one to | :21:24. | :21:38. | |
settle himself down. Four missed in a row and that has blocked it, can | :21:39. | :21:45. | |
the thread one through? Yes. What a good start. -- dart. There it is. | :21:46. | :22:07. | |
Certainly rushing, getting on with the match. In the moments leading up | :22:08. | :22:13. | |
to the start of the semifinal, while Scott was gently throwing at the | :22:14. | :22:22. | |
double 18 and double 12 and double 16 that he likes, backstage. Jamie | :22:23. | :22:27. | |
sat down and watched a bit of Wycombe Wanderers against Aston | :22:28. | :22:34. | |
Villa in the FA Cup. He is not a Villa fan but he does come from the | :22:35. | :22:37. | |
West Midlands, a big Wolves fan. He said his aim this week was to | :22:38. | :22:52. | |
reach the semifinals, not just because of the prize-money jump but | :22:53. | :22:57. | |
it takes the pressure off, he does not have to qualify for Lakeside | :22:58. | :23:03. | |
next year. He has had to re-evaluate what he will be satisfied with now. | :23:04. | :23:08. | |
I had a drink with him in the bar last night and he was so happy to | :23:09. | :23:14. | |
have produced his best darts on the stage in the quarterfinals and to | :23:15. | :23:17. | |
have achieved his ambition of reaching the semis. It is sometimes | :23:18. | :23:22. | |
difficult to get up again after that? If he has reached his | :23:23. | :23:27. | |
ambition, he should not have done because he has every chance of | :23:28. | :23:30. | |
winning this match and the title with the way he is playing. Scott | :23:31. | :23:40. | |
has come back here, what has he got here? Double 5, just low. 2184 | :23:41. | :23:51. | |
Jamie. Just asking what was remaining. | :23:52. | :24:10. | |
There is Lucy, Scott's partner, who hopes he will hit this double two, | :24:11. | :24:19. | |
11. Having hit his first three doubles, he has now missed four in | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
this leg and a sniff of a chance for Jamie Hughes but he needed the | :24:25. | :24:33. | |
treble 19 to start it. What is happening he is asking himself. A | :24:34. | :24:36. | |
strange leg, one, double two. Yes. Jamie really has to start now. He | :24:37. | :25:05. | |
lost the first set but Scott had the darts, hold your throw. No fluency | :25:06. | :25:23. | |
really. Scott was back game. Some big scores and then he goes off the | :25:24. | :25:35. | |
boil. Consistency, he knows it as well. Not the explosive start to | :25:36. | :25:48. | |
this semifinal we were hoping for. But there is still time. Yes, no | :25:49. | :26:03. | |
fireworks at the moment, a bit of a lapse. Still no one is running away | :26:04. | :26:11. | |
with the match. Awkward to get it over the top | :26:12. | :26:35. | |
there. Both players just struggling with their scoring at the moment. | :26:36. | :26:42. | |
They cannot get a rhythm, strange but it is affecting both of them. If | :26:43. | :26:48. | |
they start enjoying themselves, nice they out. Finally they are both on a | :26:49. | :27:05. | |
finish, Jamie first. Treble 19 four bull's-eye, Scott to break, 136. | :27:06. | :27:22. | |
Treble 20, yes. Treble 20, Hughes is on 68. That is close, oh dear. With | :27:23. | :27:44. | |
Scott on 36. He missed the big 16 so did not get a dart at the double to | :27:45. | :27:49. | |
hold his throw and here are three to break the throw. You did not really | :27:50. | :27:53. | |
doubt it, did you? A strange game, this one. Missing | :27:54. | :28:17. | |
some of the simplest finishes. There should be no nerves up there. A good | :28:18. | :28:31. | |
marker. The only man at Lakeside with more jewellery than Bobby | :28:32. | :28:42. | |
George. Back-to-back 140s for Scott Waites in this leg. Throwing for a | :28:43. | :28:54. | |
two set lead. He is livening up. Jamie is really struggling. | :28:55. | :29:05. | |
Good scoring from Scott Waites, 140, 140, 83, leaving a finish of 138, | :29:06. | :29:20. | |
382 Jamie Hughes. Needs this to get him going. Treble 20, no. | :29:21. | :29:37. | |
78 for the set when he comes back. As good as he was in his | :29:38. | :29:50. | |
quarterfinal, Jamie Hughes, he is struggling equally today. Tops, for | :29:51. | :29:56. | |
the set. Think you need to get this one now, | :29:57. | :30:14. | |
Scott Waites, and 40, double top. Finish now, get the treble? Here we | :30:15. | :30:35. | |
go. Double top. Double 10. 55. Oh! He left the best till last. 2-0 up | :30:36. | :30:49. | |
now, in sets. You have to do feel for Jamie Hughes. Unless you are | :30:50. | :30:59. | |
Scott Waites, that is! Scott is putting the big ones away, now. | :31:00. | :31:08. | |
His scoring has just deserted him. In the first couple of sets in the | :31:09. | :31:16. | |
quarterfinals Jamie Hughes was averaging 105. Today he is averaging | :31:17. | :31:28. | |
73. You won't win matches of this calibre with those scores and those | :31:29. | :31:36. | |
averages. Go on! Look at that from Scott, 140, one could, 140. -- 140, | :31:37. | :31:50. | |
100, 140. On the finish already, Scott Waites. It would be the | :31:51. | :32:07. | |
highest of the championships so far. Bullseye, for 164, for Scott Waites. | :32:08. | :32:17. | |
How close was that? 78. 25? Yes. Double eight. 44. -- | :32:18. | :32:31. | |
double four. It is all going the way of Scott | :32:32. | :33:00. | |
Waites. That's the way. Glanced off the | :33:01. | :33:15. | |
barrel. Room left for another one? All English semifinal and all | :33:16. | :33:50. | |
English women's final still to come. Deta Hedman against Trina Gulliver. | :33:51. | :34:00. | |
When old friends made! A fascinating story, will Deta win a title that | :34:01. | :34:05. | |
everyone in the world of darts says that she deserves, or will Trina win | :34:06. | :34:10. | |
another title? She's played herself into form this week, Trina Gulliver. | :34:11. | :34:16. | |
Name macro is a force to be reckoned with. -- Deta is a force to be | :34:17. | :34:22. | |
reckoned with. Tough one to call. Have two get it, Jamie, two | :34:23. | :35:05. | |
troubles, lose your double. -- two trebles. Scott is coming back for | :35:06. | :35:07. | |
80. Nothing you can do. Trouble 20, single 20, double top. | :35:08. | :35:37. | |
To hold his role. -- to hold his throw. Yes, two darts at double 10. | :35:38. | :35:52. | |
He needed that. Will that get him going? Only the second leg that he | :35:53. | :36:04. | |
has won in the match, Jamie Hughes. This is better. Much better. There's | :36:05. | :36:16. | |
Matt Baker and Tony Hatch, who wrote the theme to Crossroads. And the | :36:17. | :36:20. | |
theme to neighbours. Goes back a few years, does Tony. | :36:21. | :36:41. | |
And so do I! OK, treble 20, treble 17, ball. | :36:42. | :37:11. | |
Let's see it. Unlucky. Jamie in trouble. Scott on 24. Just not | :37:12. | :37:28. | |
happening. The Jamie. Double 12, then, for Scott Waites. 33. Doesn't | :37:29. | :37:55. | |
matter if you hit it. Off he goes. 2-0 in sets, 2-0 in this set. Just | :37:56. | :38:10. | |
hasn't got going, Jamie. He is a really nice guy, Jamie Hughes. | :38:11. | :38:24. | |
Gentle, pleasant. Amble. -- humble. Occasionally on a dart board he can | :38:25. | :38:29. | |
be anything but, but today it is all a little tame. | :38:30. | :38:43. | |
Plenty in from Tipton, supporting Jamie. We got a glimpse of his wife | :38:44. | :38:48. | |
Jane and his brother Shane. We did, there they are. From the Black | :38:49. | :39:04. | |
Country. His nickname is Yosser, it is something to do with Boys From | :39:05. | :39:11. | |
The Black Stuff and a cousin of his who now lives in India. But all that | :39:12. | :39:17. | |
into a cold room and the nickname Yosser comes out! Well they have a | :39:18. | :39:22. | |
lot of corn in India! Only the second maximum score of the | :39:23. | :39:41. | |
match. Single 19 now. He has missed Ed! A chance for Scott. For a 3-set | :39:42. | :40:02. | |
lead! Not looking nice up there. 3-0, Scott Waites is leading. I | :40:03. | :40:14. | |
mentioned that I sat down and watched a bit of the FA Cup tie with | :40:15. | :40:20. | |
Jamie before this semifinal. I had a word with Scott as well, wanted to | :40:21. | :40:25. | |
know how he was feeling. He was at pains to point out that once, in the | :40:26. | :40:29. | |
quarterfinal, I miss counted and I thought he had left himself 159 when | :40:30. | :40:36. | |
in fact he had left himself 158. A big difference because 158 as a | :40:37. | :40:43. | |
finish and 159 is not. So officially, I apologise, Scott. He | :40:44. | :40:44. | |
was quite cross about it! We have, this week, seen the most | :40:45. | :41:04. | |
dramatic darting U-turns, not least in the second-round match between | :41:05. | :41:06. | |
good divorce and Scott Waites. Geert de Vos looked as if he was | :41:07. | :41:27. | |
going through, it was almost exhibition stuff, suddenly he came | :41:28. | :41:31. | |
within one set of victory and it was as if the match was played in a | :41:32. | :41:36. | |
mirror. Geert de Vos lost all confidence and Scott Waites won a | :41:37. | :41:44. | |
match. He's now going in for double 16. What great throw. To go further | :41:45. | :41:57. | |
in the lead, double 16, the shot, the market is there. | :41:58. | :42:25. | |
We've had some great players from Yorkshire, and Scott Waites is | :42:26. | :42:36. | |
certainly one of them. The only player left in the drawer who knows | :42:37. | :42:38. | |
what it is like to win the world title. Only lost five sets in all of | :42:39. | :42:51. | |
2013, when he was crowned world champion, Scott Waites. Then he had | :42:52. | :42:57. | |
shoulder problems, he had an operation, his throwing arm is | :42:58. | :43:00. | |
completely free and he says it is the best thing he has ever done, | :43:01. | :43:03. | |
deciding to have that operation, and all of us and in we are looking at | :43:04. | :43:08. | |
the Scott Waites of three years ago, again. Look at this, 140, 100. | :43:09. | :43:20. | |
Relentless. Jamie though with two terms, he's got a chance in this | :43:21. | :43:32. | |
one. -- with two tonnes. Not a semifinal that will live long in the | :43:33. | :43:36. | |
memory, not the first three sets of it anyway but this is a race to six | :43:37. | :43:42. | |
sets and there is still time. We are holding that hope, and we? It is | :43:43. | :43:48. | |
like everything. The longer the distance, you think you've got more | :43:49. | :43:52. | |
time, and then suddenly you are in trouble. | :43:53. | :44:00. | |
Leaves double top. Jamie, you cannot finish. Scott with double top when | :44:01. | :44:09. | |
he comes back to the Gorky. -- oche. Come on, Jamie. Only 13 legs so far | :44:10. | :44:43. | |
and Scott Waites has won 11 of them. Those five doubles missed by Jamie | :44:44. | :44:46. | |
Hughes were in a leg that he won. His mum and his grandmother there | :44:47. | :45:12. | |
together, having a bit of a chat and asking what is happening to my son, | :45:13. | :45:14. | |
my grandson. There is Hugh, who is, for the time | :45:15. | :45:36. | |
being, refereeing his final match. An emotional day for him. He had a | :45:37. | :45:43. | |
hint of a tear in his eye as he will walk into the venue this morning. | :45:44. | :45:53. | |
Hugh is 22. He needs to sort out a career. The refereeing was taking up | :45:54. | :46:03. | |
too many weekends. It is a shame, she is absolutely magic. I know how | :46:04. | :46:11. | |
difficult it is up there. Total concentration, permanent | :46:12. | :46:17. | |
concentration. I mentioned my mistakes, the referee cannot get | :46:18. | :46:25. | |
away with them. Bull for double 16. That was for the set. Jamie, | :46:26. | :46:34. | |
something like 144 to getting going. Oh, can't finish now. Only a | :46:35. | :46:43. | |
fraction away. Having some bad luck. His darts were flowing yesterday, | :46:44. | :46:50. | |
today he is trying to force them. So for a 4- set lead, double top. And | :46:51. | :46:53. | |
there it is. Scotty Too Hotty, and he is too hot | :46:54. | :47:21. | |
for Yosser just now. Here we go, the fifth set, leading 4-0. Scott can | :47:22. | :47:29. | |
average 90, he can throw much better than this, he just doesn't need to. | :47:30. | :47:35. | |
He is rattling away the doubles. Not giving Jamie any chances. Jamie has | :47:36. | :47:44. | |
only had darts at a double twice, all match, in two legs, all match. | :47:45. | :47:51. | |
He won them both so if he can sort out his scoring, maybe we will have | :47:52. | :47:57. | |
a semifinal to savour. There's a break after this set but if it is | :47:58. | :48:02. | |
5-0 you think it will come too late for Jamie, even if he comes a | :48:03. | :48:20. | |
different player. I believe in your! Trouble 20, troubled 17, and the | :48:21. | :48:33. | |
bull. 161 is still the highest checkout of the week. Not this time. | :48:34. | :48:48. | |
So is God will come back for 71. Treble 13, double 16, I would think. | :48:49. | :48:55. | |
Single 18. It is double top. And it is there. | :48:56. | :49:13. | |
There is shame, Jamie's brother. -- there is Shane. We'll be so upset. | :49:14. | :49:30. | |
When he does go back to Tipton and reflects on his week at Lakeside, he | :49:31. | :49:35. | |
did what he came to do, which is, reached the semifinals. Though good | :49:36. | :49:44. | |
thing is as well, he is amassing league points, to come back next | :49:45. | :49:49. | |
year. That is a good thing. That's why he wanted to reach the last four | :49:50. | :49:54. | |
because you are automatically invited back, or four semifinalists | :49:55. | :49:58. | |
back next year, no matter what, zooming they want to, and he does. | :49:59. | :50:02. | |
-- assuming that they want to. Not much doing for Scott, either. | :50:03. | :50:19. | |
He's only been here once before, Jamie Hughes, he lost in the second | :50:20. | :50:24. | |
round to an inspired Glen Durrant last year. He almost made it in | :50:25. | :50:29. | |
2012, reached the last qualifying round in Hull but was timed at | :50:30. | :50:33. | |
contrition and before his match with Andy Bolton. Again he reached the | :50:34. | :50:39. | |
final qualifying round in 2013 but he lost, 2-1. So, 144. Go on, Jamie. | :50:40. | :50:52. | |
Yes. Treble 16, maybe treble 8. Anyway he will be back. There's a | :50:53. | :50:56. | |
chance. 16, double 16 will give him the leg. | :50:57. | :51:21. | |
Every time he has had a dart at the double he has won the leg. That is | :51:22. | :51:25. | |
only the third time that has happened. If he can find a way to | :51:26. | :51:35. | |
break, and this has become a little tougher, maybe all is not lost. You | :51:36. | :51:43. | |
never know. 5-0, you probably do. Never give in. Never. Your motto? | :51:44. | :51:59. | |
Yes, without shadow of a doubt. And around the game too long. I have | :52:00. | :52:05. | |
seen so many times when you think you are just on the last double. And | :52:06. | :52:11. | |
you are three sets behind and lose the match. Good last dart, finding | :52:12. | :52:30. | |
be treble. It is not a finish, he has a lead. Get the music on. It | :52:31. | :52:41. | |
will not be long. There are not any actual edges on a dart board but we | :52:42. | :52:43. | |
have some in the crowd. OK. Treble 19, maybe. 99. -- double | :52:44. | :53:21. | |
nine. He is quick. To break the throw. Ten. He made sure of that. A | :53:22. | :53:28. | |
dart at tops to break the throw for Jamie Hughes and he has had it! -- | :53:29. | :53:38. | |
he has hit it. Come on, Jamie, they scream. He is throwing first, he | :53:39. | :53:46. | |
could win a set here. The best cheer of the match is for Jamie. Remember | :53:47. | :53:57. | |
there is a break after this set. So often we see it, a player struggles, | :53:58. | :54:01. | |
goes backstage for five minutes and comes back rejuvenated. A chance to | :54:02. | :54:12. | |
just take five. Take stock. Get off that stage, which is a very lonely | :54:13. | :54:15. | |
place if you are not playing your best. | :54:16. | :54:25. | |
Scott will be hoping to keep the metaphorical foot on the throat. | :54:26. | :54:36. | |
Good marking, that one. Needs a treble. Only 60. Back comes Scott. | :54:37. | :54:52. | |
Punishing, punishing. 100 native! -- 180! Just when you thought it was | :54:53. | :54:59. | |
safe to go in the water, a maximum, from Scott. | :55:00. | :55:12. | |
The way that he's been throwing, you wouldn't back Jamie to take this | :55:13. | :55:23. | |
out, but no pressure. The biggest finish that there is, 170. A 13 dart | :55:24. | :55:33. | |
finish. And to break back more importantly. Double 10. Double five. | :55:34. | :55:50. | |
Set point, Jamie Hughes. 18 four bull. One dart at the bull's-eye to | :55:51. | :55:54. | |
win the set. Double five! That is way out! But | :55:55. | :56:01. | |
that is not. Scott Waites with the darts. And | :56:02. | :56:27. | |
throwing for a five set lead. And seemingly in no mood to let Yosser | :56:28. | :56:42. | |
back in this. That will rattle his cage. 140. Keep going, Jamie. 140, | :56:43. | :56:52. | |
100, coming so close. Tonnes are not enough for Jamie | :56:53. | :57:15. | |
Hughes committee needs to break the throw. Look at that again, another | :57:16. | :57:25. | |
140 from Scott, terrific matchplay. 121 left. Nice finish. Treble 20. | :57:26. | :57:34. | |
That would have been 17. 88. -- double eight. Well, well, | :57:35. | :58:16. | |
Scott Waites is leading 5-0 in a race to six. Jamie Hughes looks a | :58:17. | :58:22. | |
forlorn figure as he walks offstage for a short break. STUDIO: We said | :58:23. | :58:32. | |
the players would need eyes in their veins today but Jamie Hughes is | :58:33. | :58:37. | |
frozen and it would take a Disney storyline to bring anything other | :58:38. | :58:45. | |
than a win for Scott Waites. Bobby, we love darts but when we come on | :58:46. | :58:50. | |
this alchemy we take the truth cell sometimes and that was grim. | :58:51. | :58:57. | |
Terribly grim. Jamie Hughes has not played like he did yesterday. He's | :58:58. | :59:04. | |
got 80 averages and normally the semifinal is better than the final. | :59:05. | :59:09. | |
Unless he does what Scott does and comes back to beat him. An | :59:10. | :59:15. | |
interesting situation, in the last couple of games he has come back | :59:16. | :59:19. | |
from the dead and a man who knows all about the ups and downs is the | :59:20. | :59:28. | |
former champion and our friend, Steve, Scott has come back from the | :59:29. | :59:30. | |
dead twice, this is the opposite of that. And not a bead of sweat. He | :59:31. | :59:37. | |
doesn't have to play great darts at the moment to win legs. The thing | :59:38. | :59:42. | |
is, she's been here before and he knows what it is like to win the | :59:43. | :59:47. | |
title. Jamie is probably trying to hard. Now he's got to try to stay in | :59:48. | :59:52. | |
the match. One more set for Scott Waites and it is game over. If you | :59:53. | :00:00. | |
are backstage, trailing 5-0, is there any consolation, any | :00:01. | :00:03. | |
motivation? At least he has the darts in the next set. That is a | :00:04. | :00:05. | |
starting place. He might relax and may win this next | :00:06. | :00:26. | |
set. He was 3-0 down in his first match and you can see it in some of | :00:27. | :00:31. | |
Scott's play because he is incredibly self-motivated. He has | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
not been in this position all week, he has always been behind, this is | :00:35. | :00:40. | |
like a practice session, he has been hitting his doubles, he can score, | :00:41. | :00:45. | |
no pressure, a different game, if you are both doing it, it becomes a | :00:46. | :00:55. | |
good game but it is a shame. It is a small list that come here and win at | :00:56. | :01:00. | |
their first attempt, some win on their second attempt, it is almost | :01:01. | :01:08. | |
the moment before the dream, Jamie Hughes is a capable player, | :01:09. | :01:11. | |
averaging 100 through the season but having the nightmare right now. He | :01:12. | :01:16. | |
has proved on the circuit that he is quite high up. He is a fantastic | :01:17. | :01:23. | |
player, away from it, he is a lovely lad as well. I was tipping him to | :01:24. | :01:28. | |
win the Lakeside last year. The experience he had coming into this, | :01:29. | :01:36. | |
but to win this title you need to be at 100% of your best, especially | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
against Scott Waites playing as well as he can, it will be difficult. You | :01:41. | :01:47. | |
make a good point, it is a long format, you go from your second | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
round and then your next day, quarterfinal and next day, | :01:52. | :01:54. | |
semifinal, if he goes out and wins this in straight sets, he will feel | :01:55. | :02:01. | |
like he has had a half day off. He will too be honest. He will want to | :02:02. | :02:08. | |
get it done 6-0 and get off and probably go down to the working | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
men's club and get ready for tomorrow's final. He is probably | :02:13. | :02:15. | |
already in the backroom celebrating and thinking he is in the final, | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
Jamie has to come out firing and take that set and put the pressure | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
back on Scot to win the game rather than labouring over the line. The | :02:25. | :02:29. | |
problem is one set does not put on any pressure, he would have to win | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
three in a row for any pressure but do you understand what Stephen is | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
saying? Scott Camero get ready for tomorrow's final or are we jumping | :02:40. | :02:44. | |
the gun? He is not going to think he is through, he will think he has to | :02:45. | :02:49. | |
get one more set and then he is through. You have the final the next | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
day, and there would be no pressure but if he can do that, it is a | :02:55. | :03:00. | |
lovely feeling, going through a semifinal with no one taking games | :03:01. | :03:11. | |
off you. That is the Lakeside. I cannot see him coming back from 5-0, | :03:12. | :03:16. | |
it is a big fight back. That cheer as well was for him coming out, the | :03:17. | :03:23. | |
crowd trying to GM up, even Scott Waits's family want to see him win a | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
set. It is that kind of atmosphere backstage, no one wants to see the | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
whitewash but we are on the cusp of it right now. We will go back to the | :03:33. | :03:41. | |
Lord of the darts, but he is only getting paid per set. LAUGHTER | :03:42. | :03:52. | |
COMMENTATOR: I have a great page of notes, and the way it has panned out | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
so far, it looks as though I could have had an extra half an hours kip. | :03:56. | :04:01. | |
He is so much better player than what he has shown so far? Jamie, I | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
wonder if psychologically, having proved a point, is showing that he | :04:06. | :04:16. | |
is more than a pub player. I wonder if psychologically part of him | :04:17. | :04:19. | |
thought he has done that and this is a bonus from here. That is what he | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
was saying, I spoke to him last night in the bar and he said he | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
would be relaxed and you never know and that he could produce his best | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
darts but ahead of a semifinal, you need to be thinking the better then | :04:32. | :04:37. | |
maybe produce your best darts, you have to persuade yourself that you | :04:38. | :04:41. | |
will. And the fact that Scott has been there and done it, his problems | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
on and off have been well charted but he is something back to the form | :04:48. | :04:52. | |
that he is capable of. He has the big stage experience, winning this | :04:53. | :04:56. | |
title and the grand slam, it will clearly play in his favour and he | :04:57. | :04:59. | |
will take some beating in this tournament now. I think he will be | :05:00. | :05:08. | |
favourite to win it. He is the only man who knows what it takes to do | :05:09. | :05:17. | |
it. Why not, spin them up. His first of the match. C if we can get a one | :05:18. | :05:24. | |
to four from Scott Waites. Bull's-eye. Double 13. To hold his | :05:25. | :05:46. | |
throw. Well done. That is good, he had Scott Waites in his slipstream, | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
poised to pounce if anything had gone wrong with that bubble macro | :05:51. | :05:54. | |
13, that may have settled him down a touch. Scott Waites has been the | :05:55. | :06:04. | |
comeback king. The crowd would just like to see it go for a set or two | :06:05. | :06:13. | |
longer, possibly meet included. The bank manager will anyway. I will | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
remind everyone of what happened in the 2007 final, Martin Adams was 6-0 | :06:19. | :06:29. | |
up against Phil Mickelson -- Nixon, he came back after the break, 6-1, | :06:30. | :06:38. | |
6-2, 6-3, 6-4 and all of a sudden a deciding set. You never know, that | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
is darts, I remember that one vividly, that match, Nixon, bless | :06:44. | :06:55. | |
him, what a nice man. No finish here for Waites. | :06:56. | :07:06. | |
That was an attempt at triple 18 but it went in the treble 1. | :07:07. | :07:23. | |
Dear Oded, when it is not your day. To hold his throw, double extreme. | :07:24. | :07:41. | |
There we go. Jersey classic last year, Hughes beat Waites in that | :07:42. | :07:46. | |
final, 5-4, this is their first televised meeting. Good start. His | :07:47. | :07:56. | |
scoring is a lot better since the break, it could not be much worse if | :07:57. | :08:06. | |
we are being honest. Hughes in the black | :08:07. | :08:08. | |
Hughes in the ways of the Blackstone was all heart, he takes his name | :08:09. | :08:19. | |
from that, his nickname, Jamie, he wants to prove he is not falling | :08:20. | :08:26. | |
apart but it is a big task to make a decent fist of it from here. Alan | :08:27. | :08:35. | |
Bleasdale wrote that. I am told that it was. You are not 14. Having said | :08:36. | :08:48. | |
that, you probably were at the time it was broadcast, if that. He has | :08:49. | :08:57. | |
won the Romanian classic, the Jersey open and the Swedish classic, Jamie, | :08:58. | :09:03. | |
but this is a televised event, a whole different set of circumstances | :09:04. | :09:06. | |
and pressures and not least of which, the huge financial incentive | :09:07. | :09:14. | |
of getting to the final. ?100,000 for the winner. 98, to hold his | :09:15. | :09:24. | |
throw, he will be back if he misses triple 18. Jamie said last night "Of | :09:25. | :09:34. | |
all the world champions who have been crowned, if he wins it, it will | :09:35. | :09:44. | |
change his life the most." It looks as though he will have to wait | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
another year. He does have the game, a lot of people watching this for | :09:50. | :09:53. | |
the first time might say it does not look like it but he does have the | :09:54. | :09:57. | |
game, I promise, if he could just put it together and play on the big | :09:58. | :10:09. | |
stage. If we are going to see a comeback, even the start of a | :10:10. | :10:13. | |
comeback, he has do hit this and he does. That is more like it, his | :10:14. | :10:22. | |
supporters up there on the player 's balcony Webb the families sit. Scott | :10:23. | :10:33. | |
has a retinue with him. Has indeed has Jamie. | :10:34. | :10:41. | |
Waites, throwing, absolutely with his back to the wall has been the | :10:42. | :10:50. | |
highlight of the week for me. He has played wonderfully, I said at one | :10:51. | :10:54. | |
point in commentary, when he was playing Glenn Durrant, the betting | :10:55. | :10:59. | |
exchanges when he was 4-2 up clap, had Glenn Durrant as 1-33 favourite | :11:00. | :11:06. | |
but Scott still came back. 1-33 in a two horse race. That is Mike Tyson | :11:07. | :11:14. | |
against Buster Douglas. And then some. He beat him 5-4 from 4-2 down, | :11:15. | :11:27. | |
winning his previous match 4-3 from 3-0 down. If he comes through this | :11:28. | :11:32. | |
you will be in the final against either a Canadian or a Dutchman and | :11:33. | :11:35. | |
I think he will get a fair measure of support if he gets through to the | :11:36. | :11:43. | |
final. The other semi will be a good game, but we thought this one would | :11:44. | :11:50. | |
be mind you. That is true but on paper it was. Unfortunately, sport | :11:51. | :11:54. | |
is not played on paper, not this one anyway. | :11:55. | :12:06. | |
Hughes has to jump all over this, if he ever needed a 180, never a better | :12:07. | :12:14. | |
time, somewhere towards that, a good first dart. Can he find another one | :12:15. | :12:31. | |
somehow? The answer is negative. Double 16 to level the set, very | :12:32. | :12:37. | |
impressive, it really is. It is not always easy to find those doubles | :12:38. | :12:43. | |
when your opponent is struggling as much as Jamie is but Scott Waites | :12:44. | :12:52. | |
has been very steady. You just have to play your game and try and focus | :12:53. | :12:57. | |
but he is on the cusp now, on the verge. Easier said than done. Must | :12:58. | :13:13. | |
hold his throw or he is out. That does not help a great deal. Waites | :13:14. | :13:20. | |
watching on, he thinks he can close this one out. There is one treble | :13:21. | :13:23. | |
and two of them. Yes, well done. Keeping his hopes | :13:24. | :13:45. | |
flickering, not on a finished yet but Waites might be after this. A | :13:46. | :13:51. | |
loose last one but two great trebles. Wants to take a big chunk | :13:52. | :14:01. | |
at the 192, not doing at the moment, treble 20 helps. 154, for the match, | :14:02. | :14:10. | |
there is the treble, that is not in trouble 18, missed by a whisker so | :14:11. | :14:17. | |
it is not on this time. Hughes's flickering hopes not quite | :14:18. | :14:23. | |
extinguished yet. Treble 19, treble 18 for double 12, eight. To stay | :14:24. | :14:35. | |
alive and win a set, yes. Happy days and a wry smile from Scott Waites | :14:36. | :14:42. | |
and a celebration from Jamie Hughes, they are pleased for him. They are | :14:43. | :14:50. | |
on their feet all around Lakeside. You have never seen such a reaction. | :14:51. | :14:58. | |
That is a pretty good reaction as well. They had only just barely sat | :14:59. | :15:10. | |
down. That was Scott's fifth maximum of the match, six in total. And his | :15:11. | :15:20. | |
13th of the week, Jamie has had 15 but only one today. He really did | :15:21. | :15:29. | |
play so well against Wesley Harms, and since he came back from the | :15:30. | :15:34. | |
break, he has not been anything like at the same level, only averaging | :15:35. | :15:41. | |
82, Hughes. He loved the moment though, didn't he? That is | :15:42. | :15:51. | |
acknowledging the huge cheer he got for winning that set. Yes, there it | :15:52. | :16:03. | |
is. His second of the afternoon. 134 is makeable but not now, Hughes is | :16:04. | :16:06. | |
not on a finish. Waites will come back with eight | :16:07. | :16:28. | |
treble 20, double 8 possibility. Hughes is an 80, that complicates | :16:29. | :16:35. | |
things a little bit, 11 would leave bull's-eye, here he goes with Hughes | :16:36. | :16:45. | |
waiting. Good dart. Lucy his girlfriend, smiling happily. First | :16:46. | :16:54. | |
winning bull's-eye of the match. Oh dear. Only 39. | :16:55. | :17:13. | |
In the first two sets against Wesley Harms, Jamie Hughes averaged 105, | :17:14. | :17:20. | |
that is why he was so pleased, he did not give up that standard for | :17:21. | :17:24. | |
the rest of the quarterfinal but not far off it and that is why he was so | :17:25. | :17:28. | |
pleased that he had finally shown at the darts he was capable of on that | :17:29. | :17:34. | |
stage but today, it has not followed him. The pros will say it is all | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
right doing it on one day but you have to do it repetitively, that is | :17:40. | :17:43. | |
what separates the players at the highest level. And this is | :17:44. | :17:51. | |
amplifying that particular sentiment because with the darts he is under | :17:52. | :17:58. | |
all sorts of pressure again. With a 39 and a 28 to his name already. | :17:59. | :18:14. | |
Add a 43 to that mix. Not good. Waites is too long in the tooth to | :18:15. | :18:21. | |
let that opportunity go. Coming back with tops, this one is | :18:22. | :18:38. | |
to go two up and within a leg. Always nice to take out 220 with | :18:39. | :18:51. | |
four darts. Good play, he is not going to let this one slip, surely. | :18:52. | :19:04. | |
Serving for the match. A steady 100 to start. | :19:05. | :19:16. | |
The good news for Jamie Hughes is that he will be back next year and | :19:17. | :19:23. | |
he knows with what happened last night that he can produce on the big | :19:24. | :19:32. | |
stage. Waites is storming towards the finishing line now, just 261 | :19:33. | :19:37. | |
remaining between him and a place in the final. He won the title three | :19:38. | :19:47. | |
years ago, Scott Waites. Only dropped five sets in that entire | :19:48. | :19:56. | |
tournament. He is on a finish, 161, that would be a spectacular way to | :19:57. | :20:00. | |
take it out, equalling the best finish of the week by Scott | :20:01. | :20:06. | |
Mitchell. Let us see if he can do it. All yours, Scott. Yes, treble 17 | :20:07. | :20:18. | |
for the bull's-eye, do it in style. The crowd would have loved that one | :20:19. | :20:26. | |
to go in. Lucy knows it. Hughes is not on a finish so Scott will | :20:27. | :20:35. | |
return. 25 when he comes back for a 14 dart leg and a place in the | :20:36. | :20:48. | |
final. There is the single nine. Double four, there it is, never | :20:49. | :20:53. | |
really in doubt. Never in any doubt at all. Scott Waites through to his | :20:54. | :21:01. | |
second Lakeside final, Jamie Hughes will be back and throw an awful lot | :21:02. | :21:06. | |
better when he does come back but today, this afternoon, belongs to | :21:07. | :21:18. | |
Scott Waites. Ladies and gentlemen, a round of applause for Jamie Hughes | :21:19. | :21:27. | |
and the man contesting his second world final, Scott Waites. | :21:28. | :21:44. | |
Scotty to hottie did not need to be more than lukewarm to own a place in | :21:45. | :21:49. | |
the final, maybe a step too far for Jamie Hughes this year under the | :21:50. | :21:54. | |
microscope that is the Lakeside stage. Electric performances in the | :21:55. | :21:59. | |
quarterfinal and second round, and easy Saturday afternoon, must make | :22:00. | :22:04. | |
him hot favourite for his second Lakeside title tomorrow. As you | :22:05. | :22:15. | |
said, Jamie might make a set but too far to come back. Too hard. From 6-0 | :22:16. | :22:25. | |
down, it you can do it but you have to be right on your case and he was | :22:26. | :22:30. | |
not on his game today. If it had been yesterday and not today, he is | :22:31. | :22:37. | |
not the same guy. Waites did his job, just averaging over 93, he has | :22:38. | :22:43. | |
gone along this session in his head like he is practising with no | :22:44. | :22:48. | |
pressure. But he did not play as well as he did before. He has done | :22:49. | :22:56. | |
his job, he is in the final, this one was like a walk in the park for | :22:57. | :23:02. | |
him but tomorrow, he has to play well, whoever he meets in the final. | :23:03. | :23:07. | |
From Scott's point of view, you do what you have to do, whether it is | :23:08. | :23:11. | |
your back against the wall of being streets ahead, he has done what he | :23:12. | :23:17. | |
had to do so credit to him. You have to switch that off, he is thinking, | :23:18. | :23:26. | |
would he do the same to him because it can happen, he did his job, | :23:27. | :23:31. | |
scored well and finished well, average nearly 94. You know he wants | :23:32. | :23:38. | |
to get away, he likes to go somewhere quiet with his partner. | :23:39. | :23:46. | |
Congratulations. That could not be any more different than the other | :23:47. | :23:53. | |
couple of games? No, it seemed a bit more straightforward today, than the | :23:54. | :23:58. | |
previous two days. Difficult with a friend on stage and he is having a | :23:59. | :24:04. | |
nightmare and you are comfortable ahead,. His first two games, he was | :24:05. | :24:08. | |
saying how badly he was playing and then the last game he played really | :24:09. | :24:13. | |
well. In the practice room, we have had a bit of banter because we are | :24:14. | :24:19. | |
decent mates. He has been practising pretty well and then he got on | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
stage, like playing a completely different player. He is such a | :24:25. | :24:29. | |
fantastic player and he knows he did not perform today. From your point | :24:30. | :24:37. | |
of view, and you are playing someone averaging in the high 70s, you were | :24:38. | :24:42. | |
still taking out your doubles, 45%, and still averaging over 92, way | :24:43. | :24:47. | |
ahead of what was needed, from that point of view, you are showing the | :24:48. | :24:52. | |
same deadly finishing you have all week. It is difficult because you | :24:53. | :24:58. | |
have to keep your focus. You are up there for one thing, to win the | :24:59. | :25:02. | |
game. It does not matter how much you want your opponent to try and | :25:03. | :25:05. | |
get back into it or feeling sorry for him, because I did, I wanted him | :25:06. | :25:12. | |
to get a set but in some respects I did not because I was 6-0 up but I | :25:13. | :25:18. | |
want the lad to play darts and he did not. He is darted playing after | :25:19. | :25:24. | |
we came back after the break and I was thinking "Don't start playing | :25:25. | :25:29. | |
now." Those who have been watching during the week, you were warning | :25:30. | :25:34. | |
us, the shoulder is better, Scott Waits has won the grand slam of | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
darts and you do not do that with Mickey Mouse arrows. He won the | :25:40. | :25:43. | |
grand slam, he got his shoulder done, I have had mine done, it is | :25:44. | :25:47. | |
horrible but you have worked at it and played good darts, I said he was | :25:48. | :25:52. | |
hiding, but he cannot hide any more because he is in the final. Will you | :25:53. | :25:59. | |
watch the other semifinal tonight? Will you leave it alone? I tried to | :26:00. | :26:04. | |
watch the other game last night and fell asleep halfway through. I was | :26:05. | :26:08. | |
shattered after my game and that was it. I will keep an eye on it but I | :26:09. | :26:16. | |
have a 50-50 chance of winning. Congratulations, feel free to give | :26:17. | :26:20. | |
the crowd wave on the way out, thank you so much your time. Scott Waites | :26:21. | :26:25. | |
through to the final, the second men's semifinal, we will have | :26:26. | :26:31. | |
highlights later on tonight but join us at 4:30pm on BBC Two for the | :26:32. | :26:36. | |
women's final, no one predicted it but anyone who knows the story | :26:37. | :26:40. | |
behind it would not dare to miss it. Join us. | :26:41. | :26:46. |
