"This is a sterile environment, he whispers into his radio, which is probably the first time in history a darts venue has been described in such terms."
"Humphries's brow furrows a little. 'Sports Show? Sport-schau,' the reporter replies, emphasising the final syllable. 'OK. The camera starts rolling.'"
"Luke has barely slept. He won the Players Championship Finals in Minehead late on Sunday night, and then hopped straight in a car for the long overnight drive to London."
