I mentioned elsewhere that a start time of 5.30 is ridiculously early, especially on a working day. With only 3 matches on some days, it could all be over at 8.30 and back to the hotel for cocoa.

The thing is Bradders the board sections aren't as big as Eclipse ones so the matches will take longer.

Ah, but there are no advertisement breaks! Cancells it out

It has been scientifically proven that bbc viewers are more likely to locate the red button on their remotes on a bank hoiday monday in january than at any other time... hence the change

[foggs3355]

i reckon bbc will shoe all the game in the afternoon live without red button that mean we caould have 14 out of 16 1st round games with no red bitton that has to better

But shouldn't the Lakeside matches be quicker because of the impeccible crowd order of no one shouting out and whistling to put the players off whilst going for the doubles.

Refresh my memory bradders what time did 1st set of matchplay 1/4's start I think it was even more ridiculously earlier than 5.30 did the PDC boys need an afternoon nap

Don't see the problem with a 5.30 kick off.

Go watch some darts, have a few beers and then go on somewhere afterwards.

Out in the sticks of Surrey!? Where you going to go, Farnham? Everyone's in bed at 9.30. Oh, maybe thats why they've changed it.

Unlike the Sky coverage we will have more time to see some decent interviews with the players, I love this bit, gives you an incite to the players background and such.

Roll on the Masters...we are soo excited!...........oops where's the tissue?

Why the sarcasm of bdo starting at 5.30 on a weekday yet acceptable for PDC 1/4's starting during the day !

because its the BDO plain and simple and in some people's eyes they can do no right

[HayemakerBen]

They just need to stop repeating the matches the following afternoon... Gets me every year, as I settle to watch and realise I have seen it all before even though the analysis and studio time is live.
