00:30
Now then, today the fellas take a back seat as the lasses take the stage for the final of the Indoor League Ladies' Darts competition.
00:44
And what an international test of talent and temperament a promise is to be.
00:48
In at the Quill are Greta Orgel of Sweden, Moody and Mean and Millie Bergeson of North Wales, cool and casual.
01:00
One hundred!
01:08
This is Greta Orgel showing us the form that took her to the final.
01:12
Greta's from Ludvika in Sweden and she's her country's top female flighter, though she plays with her fellas most of the time.
01:18
Greta's been playing for now on five years and in that time has collected more cups than the Ming Dynasty.
01:23
She's a slow starter, but look out for her finishing power.
01:27
Come out there with a card.
01:33
Game's up!
01:36
Game's up!
01:45
Game's up!
01:47
Millie Bergeson is the complete opposite to Greta.
01:50
Nothing seems to flummox her.
01:51
She scores tons with regular monotony and she's deadly on the double out.
01:56
She's from Flintshire and was last year's runner-up in the National Ladies' Darts Championship.
02:00
An interesting form note.
02:01
Millie was beaten in that final by Barry Smith, who lost to Greta earlier in Indoor League.
02:09
That promising climax between the Queen of the Quills we'll see later.
02:13
But first, a look at the bards of the bar billiards.
02:15
Remember, snook away bunkers.
02:17
Score as many as you can in 45 seconds, but don't knock a skittle down or you're bust, as Pete Wells found out to his disgust.
02:27
But Peter Wells is put cracking on.
02:31
There, he doesn't mess it out, but I don't know what's...
02:33
And he's lost everything.
02:34
The blank skittle has gone over.
02:35
Peter Wells, tons ahead, loses the lot, but he's still time to come back.
02:39
Peter's 560, 1,100, Peter Wells 420, 110.
02:50
But this summer, as he's shown already, Peter Wells has shown us already.
02:55
If he gets that red weaving on these big scores, and he's crashing it, he's crashing them in.
03:00
150, and the bar is now down.
03:02
And the bar has just gone down.
03:05
The bar...
03:06
He didn't want that red down.
03:11
230.
03:14
He didn't want that red down.
03:16
And he's belting the ball for some unknown reason.
03:18
And he's lost everything for the second time in the game.
03:21
More ace, less speed, and Wells still in deep water.
03:24
He looks to be all over.
03:27
The pressure's back on Peter's cause he wants it in.
03:29
120.
03:29
Oh, and the length and strength was dead right, but just slightly off the line.
03:39
Now, Peter Wells doesn't want this in.
03:40
He wants to put all the pressure.
03:43
And he's knocked over the skittle for the third time.
03:45
That's a hat-trick.
03:47
Peter Wells, zero.
03:48
One he doesn't want.
03:49
John Peters, 1,120.
03:50
Well, he's missed easy.
03:55
But knowing Peter Wells, I think he'll just going to bang this in.
03:59
And there he goes.
04:00
No trouble at all.
04:01
Very sporting.
04:03
And Peter Wells, unfortunately, goes out.
04:05
And John Peters of Surrey, who must have thought he had no chance of winning that game at all,
04:09
goes through to our semi-finals.
04:12
Sir Wells, our losing finalist last year, sportingly concedes the game with only himself to blame.
04:18
Now, another interesting clash in the next quarter-final between Albert Ramsley and Cliff Dighton.
04:23
There's only 30 points in it, so it's all on this ball.
04:28
There's only 30 points in it.
04:30
It's all on this ball.
04:31
And over goes the blank skittles, so Ramsley wins anyway.
04:34
What's the score?
04:38
No, I'm wrong there.
04:39
There's still a chance that if Ramsley knocks the black skittle over, puts Dighton back in the game as well.
04:48
And they're both frightened to death.
04:56
Ramsley must be favourite now, and that won't reach anywhere.
05:00
Far too slow.
05:06
That's the side I would have gone.
05:07
Don't ask me why, but I would.
05:10
And it's there now.
05:11
And that's it.
05:13
Now what happens here?
05:13
Both players have lost their score.
05:15
Even I got mixed up.
05:16
Dighton knocks the skittle over, but Ramsley still had to pocket the ball to win.
05:21
But he knocked it over as well.
05:22
This is all for 150 quid.
05:25
This is all for 150 quid, and the start of it anyway.
05:29
And here's the tension.
05:29
And he's got it.
05:34
What a shot straight in.
05:35
And Dighton goes through after making a draw.
05:39
Ramsley balls a skittle over to cancel out Dighton's error.
05:43
And Dighton eventually wins by pocketing the ball, just to prove it's never lost till it's won.
05:47
Now our reigning champion, John Baker, is in action against Mike Abbott, and he's tons ahead.
05:52
Already another 100 in the bag, you see.
05:57
And he wanted both balls in again, so he could get back down to those big numbers on the bottom.
06:05
But he's not there.
06:06
140 scored.
06:08
John Baker, 1,860.
06:10
Cruising along with his steady 140 regs.
06:14
Never been behind.
06:15
There's no doubt about it.
06:22
Young Abbott's got a big task on his hands now.
06:27
80.
06:28
But he's cracking on.
06:30
Still trying.
06:35
160.
06:37
160 now.
06:44
180.
06:45
If he's got any chance to win this game at all, he's got to get the balls back down the table where the big scores are.
06:53
It is 45 seconds that he's allowed.
06:58
230.
06:58
Break over.
06:59
Rely on Baker, knocking over the black skittle.
07:01
Mike Abbott, 770.
07:04
If he comes to it.
07:05
30.
07:06
John Baker, 1,860.
07:13
He's still going.
07:14
40.
07:14
110.
07:19
110.
07:27
170.
07:28
This Baker just flooding on.
07:31
No trouble at all.
07:32
Just flooding on.
07:35
210.
07:37
The bar is now down.
07:37
200 again already.
07:38
And the bar has just gone down.
07:41
210 scored.
07:43
The bar has just gone down.
07:44
John Baker, 2,070.
07:46
Mike Abbott, 770.
07:48
And there he is.
07:49
2,070 again.
07:50
70.
07:51
700.
07:51
So anything that goes down now, doesn't come back.
07:57
The bar's gone down.
07:58
80.
08:00
Not even money can save you on this once the bar's down.
08:06
200.
08:07
200.
08:07
200 scored.
08:16
Now the nearest ball will be brought back, you see.
08:19
By the referee.
08:20
970.
08:21
John Baker.
08:22
And what he's got to do here is try to get both balls down at once.
08:25
And he's missed.
08:27
He's got one down.
08:28
Because he didn't want to play on the black skittle, you see.
08:32
He tried to get both balls down at once.
08:34
Now if the black skittle goes over, it could be all over.
08:36
But what a beautiful shot by Baker, proving he's a worthy champion.
08:41
So John Baker, looking every ninja champ, goes through to the semifinals.
08:44
Now it's the turn of our first ever bar billiards kingpin.
08:48
Taffy John of Pontefract, who's against youngster Rod Tarrant.
08:52
And Taffy John's just looking at something.
08:54
Don't know what it is.
08:57
But he's picked up 100 bonus anyway.
09:04
That's 200.
09:06
200.
09:06
I don't know whether the bar's gone down or not yet, but he's got to move.
09:12
That's 300 he's picked up.
09:13
300.
09:15
He can...
09:15
He's just got a chance of getting back into this game.
09:19
Oh, dear.
09:20
300 score.
09:20
Nothing going right for him at all.
09:24
Taffy John, 1,390.
09:27
Rothschild at 2,110.
09:30
50.
09:31
Just about 700 in it.
09:33
And if the bar's gone down, as I think it has,
09:36
Taffy John could go out in the first round of the family.
09:41
50 score.
09:42
Oh, did you see that, eh?
09:45
Just a little bit of nothing.
09:46
Roth Tarrant, 2,160.
09:47
Taffy John, 1,390.
09:50
30.
09:51
Yeah.
09:51
The last thing Taffy John here wants here is the red down.
10:01
He wanted the white down, but he didn't want the red down.
10:04
30 score.
10:04
And, of course, young Tarrant wants rid of his bowl as quick as possible now to put him through
10:09
to the semi-final.
10:10
20.
10:11
And he's got rid of the red, so that's the only chance of making double scores.
10:15
Roth Tarrant, 2,110.
10:15
And we're on the last bowl anyway, so it could all be on the black skittle now.
10:20
It could all be on the black skittle.
10:21
What a beautiful shot by young Tarrant.
10:24
He deserved it.
10:25
He deservedly won that game and put him through into the semi-finals for the first time.
10:29
Sadly, Taffy John goes out.
10:32
Next time, we'll have the two semi-finals, but stick around.
10:35
In just a couple of ticks, the ladies' darts final between Greta Holgren of Sweden and
10:40
Millie Bergeson of Wales.
10:41
I'll see there.
10:42
Now the ladies' darts final between Greta Holgren and Millie Bergeson.
11:02
If I could have hit the stumps as consistently as these birds of the feather can find treble
11:06
twenty, I'd have taken a thousand test with you.
11:09
The prize is prestige and 150 quid.
11:11
We join Dave Lanning in the first leg.
11:20
Who is going to make the first crucial big score?
11:27
That's 60.
11:28
This could be it.
11:31
84 scored for Greta.
11:33
So let's have a look.
11:34
What does the scoreboard say now?
11:35
She is 44 in front.
11:37
And Millie has the darts.
11:39
So that's not so many now.
11:40
Only 24.
11:42
And almost level nine.
11:46
80 scored.
11:47
So 145 going for Greta Holgren.
11:51
Treble 20.
11:52
Treble 15.
11:52
Double top.
11:53
I think that's treble five.
11:59
So that would be 55.
12:01
She's scored.
12:01
She wants 90.
12:02
54.
12:03
Treble 18.
12:03
Double 18 is her shot.
12:05
And she's missed it completely.
12:07
Her mathematics do not seem to be too spectacular.
12:10
So 109 going.
12:12
109 going for Millie Bergeson.
12:13
This vital first leg.
12:15
I'm quite sure that once one of these ladies gets their nose in front, they'll settle down.
12:21
They haven't really played their true game so far.
12:24
So 109 going again.
12:26
109 for Greta from Viking Country.
12:31
That is a 19.
12:34
She wants 90.
12:34
She wants 54.
12:37
No, she's gone.
12:38
She wants 70.
12:39
And she's looking across at her helper there.
12:43
Looking across at her coach across the North Sea who's come with her.
12:50
So Millie Bergeson wants 60 now.
12:53
And this is a golden opportunity to get this first leg under her belt.
12:58
That's the 20.
12:58
Double top.
12:59
Will this be it?
13:01
Taking her time as we zoom in.
13:04
That's just too low.
13:05
210 she wants down there at 4 o'clock.
13:07
Now she's missed it.
13:08
Two fives.
13:10
So 78 going.
13:12
Treble 18, double 12.
13:13
Treble 14, double 18.
13:14
Take your choice, Greta.
13:19
She keeps on these 20s and she's got a 5.
13:21
That is a 73.
13:23
She wanted a treble 19 there.
13:25
She's got 24 scored.
13:27
That leaves for 54.
13:28
She wants an 18.
13:29
No, she doesn't.
13:29
She went for 14 and she's missed that as well.
13:34
Unpredictable continental play.
13:35
Leaving commentators out of breath.
13:39
But Millie Bergeson, in the meantime, wants two fives.
13:44
Two fives for this first leg.
13:45
And that one's just a trifle too high.
13:47
That's too many.
13:49
So, Greta Hallgren with a golden chance.
13:51
Now 45.
13:57
45.
13:58
Now there's so many ways she can go for this.
14:00
I will keep quiet and let the lady make up her own mind.
14:10
19.
14:11
She needs two 13s.
14:14
Up there at 2 o'clock on the board.
14:18
Colossal drama.
14:19
Yes.
14:24
Well, Greta for once takes the lead, but they look nervous.
14:27
Will it be a whitewash?
14:34
So, that's 60.
14:35
She wants 105.
14:37
She's come down.
14:38
She's got a 19.
14:40
These are 86.
14:41
54s have shot.
14:42
29 score.
14:43
17.
14:45
16.
14:45
16.
14:47
86.
14:47
And she's counting away.
14:49
Look at the nerves building up on this little lady.
14:53
95 score.
14:54
95 score.
14:55
That's very, very useful.
14:56
So, 125 for Millie Bergeson to keep the indoor league title in Britain.
15:01
She's come down.
15:04
39 scored.
15:08
So, 70 going.
15:11
70 going for Greta Holgren.
15:14
She can finish on this.
15:18
Which way will she attempt to get out?
15:21
She needs 50, the bullseye.
15:23
Will she go for it?
15:24
I wouldn't be surprised.
15:26
No.
15:27
She went across for 10 and she got a 60.
15:29
What's 44 now?
15:31
So, an even number to leave her a double.
15:35
12 is her shot for a double 16, which is what most players would prefer.
15:42
Was it?
15:44
Yes, it was.
15:45
32 she wants.
15:46
2.16.
15:47
So, 85 going for Millie Bergeson.
15:48
She wanted a treble 15.
15:50
She wants 70.
15:51
She went for 3.10s and it's just wide.
15:55
Now, trying very hard.
15:58
Greta Holgren.
15:59
Double 16.
16:00
They'll wrap it all up.
16:00
Will the title go across the North Sea?
16:07
Here we go.
16:08
Double 16 to wrap it up.
16:10
And this lady loves to take her time to settle herself in.
16:14
And absolute drama here.
16:17
She really looks to be a little bit overwrought.
16:19
Let's see if she can settle down and hit this double 16.
16:21
Oh, so close.
16:28
That's just a bit too high.
16:31
Absolutely unbearable, the tension.
16:35
Oh, so close again.
16:37
Did you hear the cry?
16:38
So, Millie Bergeson, everybody breathes again.
16:44
It's like the all clear going.
16:46
Millie Bergeson, in the meantime, has 55.
16:48
She wants double top now.
16:49
She has a 15.
16:52
Once again, the tension builds up.
16:54
And that's next door.
16:55
She wants two 15s.
16:56
She's got two 5s, 10s scored.
16:57
She wants two 15s and she's missed it.
16:59
Greta Hulgren has the title in her grasp.
17:07
Two 16s, her second chance at them.
17:14
And really and truly now.
17:20
Bang!
17:20
You can hear the dart going in so clearly.
17:24
Yes, two 9s, two 9s.
17:27
She wants them.
17:27
It was just next door.
17:28
Two 9s up there at 2 o'clock.
17:31
10 o'clock, rather.
17:33
Nerves affecting the commentator as well.
17:36
The drama, unbelievable.
17:37
Come on, girl.
17:38
Let the thing go.
17:42
Oh, she's missed it.
17:48
So, double 15 now for Millie Bergeson.
17:51
Double 15 for Millie to level it up.
17:54
That's a 15.
17:55
She wants 15 to rip.
17:57
She wants, she's got the 3.
17:59
She wants two 6s.
18:00
Two 6s.
18:02
No, she's missed it.
18:07
Two 9s now for Greta Hulgren.
18:09
At the third time of asking for a double 8.
18:11
She wants 9 to rip.
18:12
She's missed the 1.
18:13
She's missed the 1.
18:17
That's too many.
18:19
Anti-climax.
18:20
So, 2 2-3s for Millie Bergeson to level it up in this final.
18:26
She's just edging nearer.
18:34
Yes!
18:34
So close, so tight, so dramatic, that Millie Bergeson is back in with a chance.
18:45
Millie, back on level 10.
18:47
Sweden or Wales, here we go for the deciding leg.
18:50
The climax of the 1974 ladies' darts on indoor league.
18:57
The third and decisive leg in the ladies' final between Greta Hulgren from Sweden.
19:02
43.
19:03
43 scored.
19:05
And Millie Bergstrom, there she is.
19:10
From Flincher.
19:17
45.
19:18
Really, an absolute seesaw struggle with incredible drama.
19:27
Maybe the darts haven't been of the high score caliber we've seen during the competition.
19:33
But the drama has made up for everything.
19:36
Millie Bergeson.
19:38
That's a 60.
19:42
85.
19:44
85 scored.
19:48
So, what's in it?
20:14
About 30.
20:16
25-30 in it.
20:17
Oh, and that's bad luck for Greta.
20:22
40.
20:23
40 scored.
20:27
So, there's the state of the parties.
20:29
Just 13 in it.
20:32
This is Millie.
20:36
39.
20:37
39 scored.
20:40
Once again.
20:43
And Greta from Sweden banging those 60s.
20:46
Look at her go.
20:48
Another 100.
20:57
Millie Bergstrom now is slipping behind.
21:00
She needs a big score.
21:04
And she has the bad luck to see one bounce back at her feet.
21:07
So, 177 going now for Greta Hallgrim for the championship.
21:18
85.
21:18
85.
21:19
She wants 92.
21:24
Only in Millie Bergeson now.
21:26
She's slipped behind.
21:26
Ridley has slipped behind.
21:33
So, is the volcano about to erupt.
21:37
92 she wants.
21:38
Triple 20.
21:39
Two 16s is the shot.
21:42
Let's watch her.
21:44
It's just 120.
21:45
She wants 72.
21:47
She's going to stay there, I think, on the 20s.
21:52
Oh, she's going to screw her way over to the left there.
21:56
So, 162 going for Millie Bergeson to get back into this game.
22:00
And when she's got 60, she wants 102.
22:04
20 right on the wire, I believe.
22:06
100.
22:07
100.
22:07
So, 47 going now for Greta Hallgrim.
22:14
So, I think she'll go 15, two 16s.
22:17
Yes, she will.
22:18
15, two 16s for the title.
22:20
Two 16s for the championship.
22:24
That's very close.
22:26
Can't see what it is.
22:27
Is it an 8?
22:28
I think it's an 8.
22:29
It is.
22:30
And it's 212.
22:31
And she's won it.
22:32
It was an 8.
22:33
She won it 24.
22:35
She needed 212.
22:36
She did it.
22:37
Crack open the snaps.
22:39
We have a Swedish champion of the Ladies League.
22:42
The Ladies Championship of Darts and Indoor League.
22:46
Well, after that brilliant win,
22:47
Greta had a charge off to catch a plane back to Sweden.
22:49
But to accept her check and medal
22:51
is Carl Cush, the president of the Swedish Darts Association.
23:01
You'll give that, Greta, with our luck, will you, Carl?
23:03
Carl, how big is the Darts Association in Sweden now?
23:08
Oh, it's growing all the time.
23:10
And we have played just for 10 years about.
23:11
And we've got about some thousands of players.
23:16
You've got as many players as that.
23:18
Well, all I can do is wish you and your association the best of luck.
23:21
And would you please take the check as well, Carl?
23:23
Thank you very much indeed.
23:30
Well, it's always sad when our losses lose out.
23:33
But nobody can begrudge Greta her victory.
23:35
And that's it for this week.
23:36
Next time, bar billiards, table football
23:39
and a brown cocktail of the Indoor League.
23:43
I'm wrestling.
23:44
I'll say that.
23:44
Yes!
23:49
Yes!
23:49
Well, it's always sad when our losses lose out.
23:50
