Blood on the Carpet: Poisoned Arrows

on BBC Two England

Continuing the series which examines some of the most vicious business battles of recent times.

Darts was once one of Britain's most popular TV sports, but when the press turned on it for portraying overweight, cigarette-smoking and hard-drinking men as sporting heroes, an image makeover was required. This led to a poisonous civil war between the sport's chief and its biggest stars that ended in the High Court.
