Bowen said they filmed the whole year in just two weeks.

Prob an urban myth, but someone told me that an Irish couple were on it and got mangled.
They finished last. The other 2 couples didn't want to trade for a shot at the star prize.
It came to the Irish couple and they didn't want to either - they'd won 50 quid.
They were begged to do the trade but wouldn't budge til they were told (off air) they could keep the money.
Then banged in a couple of treble 20s for an Austin metro.

Prob bs.

It's fact, and was 20 notes.

I don't remember anyone specifically, but there were lots of people who refused the trade having won very small amounts of money.

I watched an episode where no one took a shot at the star prize.

I read "Bellies and Bullseyes" a few years ago (Cracking read) and to the best of my memory the story went that it was Yorkshire TV and the first 2 couples kept the prizes and money. The 3 couple had around 60 quid and when asked to gamble they refused. So the director of the show yells 'Cut' and they pull the couple aside and tell them that if they don't go for the gamble then there isn't a show.
They cut them a deal that when the cameras rolled again and Jim asked them, that they should gamble, and if they lost to play along with the show and they would give them the money backstage afterwards.

So they accept the gamble, don't get the 101 in 6 darts and the show ends with the usual 'Have a look at what you could have won". Afterwards , backstage when the couple went looking for their money they were told to fxxx off!!!!

At least I think that's how it went.

PDC Winmau World Masters in running now. It’s a throwback to the former BDO/WDF setplay format, albeit, each set is best of 3 legs.

Cracking format. Our own John O Shea won the last version of the BDO competition.

That's gotta be some buzz to see your name with the who's who of darts (few more legends on it as well)
