If you’re in the UK and you happened to switch your TV on at any time over the past week, it is almost certain that you would have seen one of two things. Either a news report about snow and the ‘Big Freeze’ that has gripped the country (and most of the Northern Hemisphere), or two fat, sweaty men playing darts at the BDO Lakeside World Professional Darts Championship.

Now, here at Gadget Spectrum, we quite like snow, but we’ve never been all that interested in darts. But during the week, as the novelty of the snow started to wear thin, the darts seemed to get a bit more interesting, ending with a closely fought final between Martin Adams (the older, less sweaty one) and Dave Chisnall (the younger, sweatier one).

Adams ended up winning 7 sets to 5.

But if all of the Beeb’s darts coverage has left you wanting to try your hand at this traditional pub game, we’ve found a few dart boards you may like.

And this week we will be watching the snooker [insert your own joke about balls here].
