I was hoping the rocket would win this final, sadly it wasn't meant to be. but a big well done on getting to the final by beating some great darts players....
I always felt sorry for Baxter. Lost in 2 BDO World finals, then just lost against Rod Harrington in I believe it was the Matchplay when he was a couple of legs in front and throwing for the match but lost it again, poor guy. Although I was supporting Ted in this final as his throw and talent amazed me. It's a shame he didn't go to the PDC whilst he was still young like in this video, as I believe he could have been a real force.
+Lily Hardy 16 lol and neither can I. I'm not exactly a darts fan. I watch one tournament a year and it's the BDO Championships on BBC. That's it I could tell you all the finals from about 1999 onwards and it's that time of year again when I watch the matches and reminise about past years. I remember as a 15 year old really wanting Ronnie to win but Ted ran away with it. There have been some amazing finals over the years. I really loved Tony David winning in 2002, Fordham, Flaasen, the amazing Phill Nixon come back in 07 from 6-0 to level it only to lose the last set (RIP), and Dave Chisnall nearly going all the way in 2010.
John part was a commentator for several years covering the bdo world championships. He even commentated on the 2003 bdo World championship when he was pdc world champion a few days prior.

Yeah he sure is. There's a clip of him having an interview by Winmau Darts on this. Goes back a few months now as it was from the start of lockdown last year. Looks in great shape fair dos to him and he seems a top bloke!
Everyone memes about this but the PDC wasn't a higher level than the BDO from day one - the BDO was still competitive right up until, probably, Barney's switch. 2005 was the first year the PDC champion even got paid more than the BDO. The main reason everybody says the PDC was better is because Phil Taylor was steamrolling everything in sight through the early years, which wasn't necessarily a good thing (look at some of the randos in the PDC championship in, say, 1998 for example). And let's not forget that with the exception of Gerwyn Price, every PDC champion started in BDO darts (although Adrian Lewis switched before attempting to qualify for the BDO Worlds).
@@Kinitawowi Wouldn't even bother tbh, most commenters are just low i.q deanos slurping on barry hearns nutsack, they arn't really interested in facts or even darts much just MUH AVGS!!! and MUH ATMOSPHERE (meaning drunk fancy dress white van estate deano scum)
@@Kinitawowi Absolute rubbish. The top 14 ranked players left the BDO to form the PDC, the only reason the BDO prize fund was bigger was because the BBC had signed a huge contract, and as soon as that was not renewed the bottom dropped out for the BDO.
Unfortunately he'll probably be out now he only got 2 years which is a disgrace, same with the peodophile tony Eccles he got 16 years and got let out after 8 years. Absolutely shocking no justice at all.
