Darth Maple modestly takes our praises for his qualification for next month's UK Open before running through all the Premier League Darts fixtures in Newcastle this week, which includes his 6/1 treble!

John, in his dual-role of 'Darts Agony Uncle', also answers your questions, which this week involve bad sportsmanship and how to finally hit your first 180 - or get better at hitting more than one a year!

If you have a question about anything tightly or loosely related to darts - please send them in throughout the season by emailing us at editorial@pbc88.org, tweet us @SportingLife or send us a direct message via our Facebook page.

You can now listen to all 22 minutes of this podcast free of charge via but it is also available on Sporting Life's usual page.
