Play this on it and pretend Phil is your TV.

If it's under two years old, though, get onto the shop to replace or repair it. Those fat cat tyrants in Brussels are on your side for this one

Any of you know much about TVs? I've a problem with mine since the other night. So every 15-20 minutes, it glitches out, freezes for about 10 seconds and then restarts itself and goes again for about the same length of time. Doesn't matter what I'm streaming from - sky box, dodgy box, built in streaming - it does the same on them all, which has me thinking it's either the telly itself or maybe a network issue of some sort, router or something but I've tried the usual resetting back to factory and latest update and of course turning it off and on again but same result every time.

Can't find anything online to help, so are there any tech heads on here who might have any ideas?

I'm used to those modern flatscreen things clapping out after a year or two but I've only had this a year and it doesn't feel like a hardware problem to me. It's a 50 inch Samsung one if that makes any difference.

It's broken

Starting to come to that conclusion myself. Luckily it's still under warranty so I sort of hope it stays broken now

That Littler fella is great. Not massively into the darts but heading over to it tomorrow with a few mates so been brushing up. Should be a good session.

I'd say the drinking at the darts would be something out of the Stout and Ale handbook

That kid in the darts this week. He's 16! He's fucking 16 years old, he fucking looks over 40. What a horrific life he must be leading, but will become an inspiration to many. Mental.

He would fit in well in this era..

He's some talent, that's for sure. Well able to keep his calm on the big stage. Thought it was funny that his oul' wan had to sit in on his interview yesterday 'cos he's underage.

He wasn't born until a few months after Van Barneveld won his last world championship, that must have killed Barney after being beaten.

Ya, he's class. Mad to be that composed at that age but I suppose he isn't wide, he is, to the world so maybe easier to be unphased. Unfortunately we have evening tickets tomorrow so won't see him.

The benchmark is set.

Anyone I know who's gone reckoned it was good craic anyway. You'll be watching it all on the big screen but the atmosphere is good.

Ya know a few that went and said it was good craic. They go through your wallet and pockets at the security check so hide those bags of coke in your trainers.
