A history of Welsh football. Not an obvious topic of interest to Darts fans, but the filmed action (even the staged stuff) from episode 1 and in part 2 the tales from Wales qualification, build up and participation in he World Cup Finals of 1958 make watching worthwhile. Plus an early super star who played chewing a tooth pick with snippets from a 1951 radio interview with him. There's even a Posh & Becks story from the 1910's, though that tale sadly ended at the Battle of the Somme. Add in some familiar names of the past (to us oldies make at least) for four 30 minute episodes on the BBCilayer, what treats in parts 3 & 4 wait for me?
