Surely the most iconic and recognisable darts player ever - his ability was only matched by his charisma. Absolute legend!

I've been watching a few old darts videos of late and discovered this one. Eric was one of my favourites back in the day. I saw him standing outside the Holiday Inn Hotel near Russell Square a month or so before he went on to appear in I'm a Celebrity. Great documentary and it's still hard to believe he's no longer with us. He was a heavy drinker and smoker though and lived his life the way he wanted. I don't blame him to be honest. I've seen it first hand, people die who are non drinkers and smokers younger than him. Live life to the full as best you can. You get one shot at it!

The difference between Bristow and Taylor. Bristow made Darts huge in this country and beyond. You could argue quite rightly that Taylor was a better player; however, he did not have the impact on the game that Bristow had and Taylor had absolutely zero charisma. Bristow love him or hate him was the Botham of Darts. In fact Botham and Bristow were the two biggest sports stars of the 1980s in Britain. They were known by everyone on the street. That was the big difference. Bristow was the legend and Taylor was a very good darts player.

Too young to die at 60 by today's standards. He was a legend and of his time. People often assumed he was big-headed, arrogant and cocky, but I just think he had to adjust to being revered and it can be difficult to deal with if you come from an ordinary working class background. He's obviously a likeable cheeky Cockney and he did well from having a chance talent.

No, it was Chris Ashley and he was extremely popular not only on Radio Trent, but in the Midlands as a whole because he was a sports presenter on several radio stations and appeared on Midlands television too. He was liked because he was outspoken and said what he thought. That upset a lot of people, but also earned respect.
