LITTLER IS CHAT SHOW THROW STAR!

LUKE LITTLER has gone from king of the throw to A-list chat show with Jonathan Ross. 

The teen sensation took his seat on the couch for this Saturday’s show alongside rock icon Liam Gallagher and Stone Roses guitarist John Squire and comedian Rob Beckett.

As revealed by Rob Maul in The Sun newspaper, he told Ross that one of the strangest requests since his run at the world championship came from supermarket chain Iceland who “were gonna put my face on kebabs”.

That came after he had revealed, following his opening win against Christian Kist at the Ally Pally in December, that he would celebrate with a kebab and a can of Fanta.

Littler also said on the chat show that he hardly practises, instead spending most of his free time playing the Xbox.

His first experience of throwing darts came when he “was about 18 months in a nappy with a magnetic board”.

He added: “I don’t remember it but my dad said we were in the pound shop and I was in the trolley and I just picked a magnetic dart board out.

“And I still think to this day…imagine if I hadn’t picked up that dartboard.

“At the age of nine and ten my dad said let’s hang up your boots, I can see your potential in darts. And I was like, I just wanna play football. But seven years on, it’s paid off.”

In an amusing section of the show, Littler teaches Stranger Things actress Millie Bobby Brown and Brits superstar Raye Brown how to throw arrows.

The Warrington wonderkid performed in the Premier League on Thursday night and will next be in action against Portuguese thrower Jose de Sousa in the first round of the Belgian Darts Open in Wieze on Friday.

This is his first appearance on the PDC European Tour since earning his PDC Tour Card.

Meanwhile, Littler hit a bowlseye this week as he did become the face of a brand new cereal after being snapped up by YouTubers Sidemen to promote BEST.

The breakfast – which launched in Tesco on Tuesday – comes in both Choco Crunch and Caramel Gold flavour.

An ad for the cereal shows Littler tucking into a bowl whilst throwing three blind bullseyes.

Then the oche icon gave the camera a cheeky eyebrow raise that had fans “creasing”.

That came after Littler complained of feeling sick during a match at Butlins over the weekend because he had missed breakfast.

The star recently signed a new partnership with Target Darts, described as the “biggest deal” in the sport.
