October 17th 2024.
Over the past ten months, a young man named Luke Littler has experienced a whirlwind of success. At just 16 years old, he made headlines when he reached the finals of the World Darts Championship. And now, at the ripe age of 17, Littler's rise to fame is showing no signs of slowing down.
Not only has he climbed up the ranks in the world of darts, but he has also gained recognition in the world of endorsements. With deals from BoohooMAN and Target under his belt, it seems that Littler is on top of the world. But his latest achievement is truly a game-changer.
According to reports, Littler has landed a television deal to appear on the reboot of the beloved 80s show, Bullseye. Alongside former Top Gear host and ex-England cricketer, Freddie Flintoff, Littler will be a guest player on the Christmas special. And to add to the excitement, the young darts prodigy will be throwing for charity.
It's no surprise that ITV quickly snatched up Littler for the show. As one TV insider stated, he is now one of Britain's most well-known players. And with the recent recommissioning of Bullseye, it was a no-brainer for producers to bring him on board.
The original show, which first aired in 1981 and was hosted by Jim Bowen, ran for an impressive 14 years. The game involved a dartboard and tested contestants' darts skills as well as their general knowledge. Three pairs of contestants, each consisting of a darts player and quizzer, competed for cash and prizes.
Many have attributed Littler's rapid rise to dart's popularity as a key reason for the show's return. And for Flintoff, this will be his first appearance on TV since his BBC documentary, "Freddie Flintoff's Field Of Dreams On Tour," where he opened up about a crash while filming Top Gear in December 2022. The crash left him with facial and rib injuries and made headlines across the country.
It's safe to say that Littler's journey to success is far from over. And with his impressive skills and charm, it's no wonder that he has captured the attention of not only the darts world but also the world of television. We can't wait to see what the future holds for this rising star.
