The Observer | Sport | Wanted: candidates for BBC personality of the year award

No British sportsman has dominated darts so completely as The Power, yet any support for him through the voting coupons of the Radio Times consistently fails to register. Dark suggestions that his image does not please the BBC (even though he has been recognised by Buckingham Palace) are always dismissed, never convincingly. Yet there is an argument that darts is one of the purest sports, wholly uncomplicated with a patently obvious, unriggable result plain for all to see.
