darts, will remove a picture of Rolf Harris that had been hanging on a wall.Only last weekend it hosted the latest big event on the recently formed World Seniors circuit, the Masters, won by Canadian David Cameron, who defeated 16-time world champion Phil Taylor in the final. There were numerous other legends of the game in action, including Keith Deller, John Lowe, Bob Anderson and John Part, who rolled back the years to the delight of the fans in attendance.However, an unwanted blast from the past also emerged from the tournament after Lowe tweeted an innocent picture of himself at the Lakeside.“Nice to be here in flesh, and still in the gallery at Lakeside,” tweeted Lowe in front of a montage of many of the darts players and entertainers who have performed at the venue.That gallery unfortunately still included a picture of disgraced entertainer Harris - the convicted sex offender, who was jailed for five years and nine months in 2014 for 12 indecent assaults between the 1960s and 1980s.

darts has exploded over the last 20 years, with viewing figures going through the roof, both on TV and at the venues themselves.Darts is no longer seen as a beer-swilling pub game, but as a serious sport containing high-quality players with even higher stakes. And the increased media exposure has led to a series of big-name sponsors getting involved, desperate to share the spotlight which is shone on the sport.That is summed up by the drastic increase in prize money at the sport’s marque event, the World Darts Championship, one of the staples of the festive season.Phil Taylor has won the tournament an incredible 16 times, with his first title coming back in 1990 and his last in 2013.

Darts Championships.The Canadian, 55, took to the Circus Tavern stage yesterday and fans quickly spotted the change in the darts legend’s physique.He appears to have slimmed down significantly since his last TV appearance as a commentator at the 2022 PDC World Darts Championships in December and January.One fan penned on Twitter: “John Part has lost a substantial amount of weight, fair play to him. Brilliant to see Darth Maple back on the big stage.”“Big John looks like he’s slimmed down since the Worlds,” another wrote.While a third fan added: “John Part has lost a lot of weight, he looks good.”The 2003 and 2008 PDC World Darts champion’s campaign at the Circus Tavern came to an end yesterday as he was beaten by 2001 BDO world champion John Walton.Walton produced some quality darts at times to defeat Part 3-1.It was a superb opening leg from the Englishman as he produced a 64 for an opening break followed by a 100 checkout to go one away from taking the first set.A 101 checkout from Part saw him get on the board.In order to keep the set alive, he needed to take out 102 which he missed, and after squandering multiple darts to seal the set, Walton finally claimed it on double 10 to claim the set and take the lead in the match.The second set saw Walton have the throw and began with a 154 to hold.Are you enjoying the World Darts Seniors Championship? Let us know in the comments section.A 180 and 63 checkout saw him break again as he went one away from a two sets lead.

But now I work with him, I absolutely love him to bits.”Nothing could rival the thrill of lifting the Sid Waddell Trophy, after beating Michael van Gerwen in the final at Ally Pally to win the last of his 16 world titles.But do not underestimate what it would mean to Taylor to wear another version of the crown.“When I was doing a podcast with (former PDC chairman) Barry Hearn, and I was introduced as the 16-times world champion, Barry chipped in and added, 'So far.' That made me laugh.“This is not the world championship, but I would love to win it.
