Extended dart tournament highlights on Sky Sports News.

Their women have undeniably hot accents.

Dola, but for some reason Mr. Evil uses double quotes when he says "laser" instead of single quotes (i.e. 'laser').

I work with an Englishwoman who's probably average-slightly above average, but her accent drives me nuts.

Their women have undeniably hot accents.Are you talking Angela Lansbury in Sweeney Todd accent or woman in Orbit Gum commercial accent?

He didn't spend six years in evil medical school to be called "mister", thank you very much.

I'm going to be heading there in a couple of weeks with the Mrs. I'm going to be speaking Cockney by the time we come home.

In the Canary Islands the english are really funny. They are hot, drunked, red as tomatoes and trying to speak spanish. That's funny.

The best part of the dart highlights is the crazy excited color commentator.

They can't be real english people - everyone knows that the english idea of communicating in a foreign language is to speak English very slowly and increase volume over time if they don't initially understand you ;)

Sid Waddell is a legend - what he proves is that in TV coverage of an event, the event itself is almost meaningless if you have the right front man.

Pure genius! A few highlights (it works better in a high pitched Geordie accent):

"You couldn't get more excitement here if Elvis Presley walked in eating a chip sandwich!"

"When Alexander of Macedonia was 33, he cried salt tears because there were no more worlds to conquer. Bristow's only 27."

"He looks about as happy as a penguin in a microwave."

"Eyes like a pterodactyl....with contact lenses"

"Cliff Lazarenko's jumping up and down like a gorilla saying "give me back my banana!"

"He's like Jack The Ripper on a Friday night."

"He's about as predictable as a Wasp on speed."

"Well as giraffes say, you don't get no leaves unless you stick your neck out."

"His eyes are bulging like the belly of a hungry chaffinch."

An important distinction.

That. Is. Amazing.

[Desnudo]

I know, dominating darts at 27.

Sid is great:

"If we'd had Phil Taylor at Hastings against the Normans, they'd have gone home."

"He looks about as happy as a penguin in a microwave."

"Darts players are probably a lot fitter than most footballers in overall body strength."

"Eyes like a pterodactyl....with contact lenses"

"Cliff Lazarenko's jumping up and down like a gorilla saying "give me back my banana!"

"He may practice 12 hours a day, but he's not shy of the burger van!"

"It's just like taking a sausage from a boy in a wheelchair."

"This is the clash that makes King Kong versus Godzilla look like a chimpanzees tea party!"

It goes on. I wish they'd bring him over for MNF.
