Fallon Sherrock wins £501,000 on Luke Littler’s Netflix darts show
Fallon Sherrock beat Luke Littler in a one-leg darts match on his Netflix show, winning the £501,000 prize.
The show, filmed at Manchester Central, featured 24 players taking on the world number one in 501.
Littler said he expected pub players, but recognised just over half the line-up when he saw it.
Players without a PDC Tour card could enter, so the field included Sherrock and leading junior players as well as contestants with less darts experience.
Sherrock qualified through auditions and a public vote before facing Littler.
She won the bull to throw first, then finished the leg in 15 darts.
Her win showed how the open entry rules brought top players into the contest, despite its pitch as a chance for amateurs to win life-changing money.
Littler said he was open to doing another show, and said Netflix might be too.

Fallon Sherrock: Netflix got it wrong with Beat Luke Littler
Littler expected 'pub players' on Netflix show
What people are saying
Before I saw the line-up, I thought it was just pub players
I mean Fallon, she's never had a Tour card, so she went for the qualifiers and she made it through. But then she wasn't guaranteed to play - she went in on a vote.
It was a very good night overall
