I have zero recollection of the Mardle vs Dudbridge game or its rowdy crowd.

As we established over the summer, Taylor was immense in 2005 post Tavern. He only lost on TV in the Matchplay to Part and dominated the cross code stuff.
Not a single dart of that was shown live, as far as I can tell. I'm attempting to collect a complete record of the BBC's coverage of 1995 lakeside.oche balboa wrote: ↑Fri Jan 03, 2025 7:09 pm 2005 BDO World Championship - Day 3

No live lake darts on regular telly from Tuesday to Friday at the 2005 edition. It's amazing how that was normal.oche balboa wrote: ↑Sat Jan 04, 2025 7:54 pmI've found this for 2005 https://web.archive.org/web/20041231084 ... darts.com/Rogg wrote: ↑Sat Jan 04, 2025 7:26 pmNot a single dart of that was shown live, as far as I can tell.

The Masters of Darts was in February 2005. A lot of people going in were saying that Barney was better than Taylor at that moment. They were wrong.Randall wrote: ↑Sat Jan 04, 2025 8:23 amTaylor won the x code masters in 04 playing better than he did in the 05 finals months latersennafan24 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 04, 2025 7:08 am Great thread Oche.

Darts Extra was a good highlights programme, But it was a thing back then that every match wasn't live.Rogg wrote: ↑Sun Jan 05, 2025 9:39 amNo live lake darts on regular telly from Tuesday to Friday at the 2005 edition.

However! For digital viewers, the red button was now available, making this potentially the first lakeside where every dart could be watched live on tv?
Taylor also beat Hankey in a cross code event later in the year. He smashed Barney H2H in their cross code meetings that year [6-1]PT13 wrote: ↑Sun Jan 05, 2025 12:42 pmThe Masters of Darts was in February 2005.

Aside from Taylor winning all 6 of his matches, the 2005 Masters of Darts was a good tournament for the BDO though. All 4 of their players (i.e. Barneveld, Fordham, David, Stompe) beat both Lloyd and Mardle, while Barneveld and Fordham also beat Scholten. Fordham beat Scholten again in the semi final.
