Which channel is the Premier League Darts on?

Over the course of the previous 16 weeks, Sky has on occasion moved the darts around depending on what else is on TV. Fortunately, the Premier League will take centre stage for the play-off this evening.

What is the prize for winning Premier League Darts?

BBC Sport reports that the winner will pocket a huge £275,000 at the end of the night. The runner-up will go home with £125,000 and each of the losing semi-finalists will get £85,000 each.

Is the Premier League Darts free to watch?

Unfortunately the live coverage is exclusive to Sky Sports - and as such requires either a subscription. You can get a 24 hour sports pass for Now TV, if you just want to catch the action tonight.

The BBC will have live text commentary via the BBC Sports app and website, but will not be broadcasting the event itself.
