And more then any other Premier League game on Sky in history. Which is why i think its a bit overstated. I think the true figure is around 800,000

Thinkbox will have the true figure on Monday. Was it on Main Event or was it West Ham vs Brighton?
As you posted on Twitter, it probably refers to peak viewership.

Still an exceptional number.
I'm not disputing its good numbers. I don't think its that high. an average PL game on sky gets 600,000 it will be above that but below what top match gets

It is a peak. A little more detail via this tweetererer who is a sports reporter from The Times. https://twitter.com/ElganTimes

1.48 million average.
2.32 million peak.
Crackers.

Littler's run has took this sport on a new level. Viewings figures for the worlds are miles better then any other darts event but this is made his match was slightly more then Ben Stokes in vain innings vs Australia

The biggest audiences for darts is the 1999 BDO Worlds which had 4.1 million. Imagine if BBC/ITV were allowed to show the world final

Sport?
The truth, however ugly in itself, is always curious and beautiful to seekers after it.

Whittaker Doctor Who rock bottomed at only 2.2m overnight on bloody BBC1 two years ago. That can't be good.

holy mackerel!
watched the humphries match after I got in from league darts late last night.
cool hand was off the charts!
a quick 6-0 wham bam thank-you ma'am performance
and yet he even had time to get a little fishing in, which is nice.

some are claiming he landed a really big one by using scott williams for bait.
the shit people come out with, I swear.
