Wins, walkouts and wrong turns with darts' biggest character

Stephen Bunting grew up throwing darts in smoky Merseyside boozers, sneaking into pubs under his hood as a twelve-year-old, and learning to count by chalking scores on the side of his wardrobe.

Now he's one of the most beloved players in the fastest-growing sport on the planet. His walk-on to 'Titanium' sees grown adults singing their hearts out in arenas from Belfast to Berlin.

This is the true, unvarnished story of 'The Bullet': BDO World Champion, PDC Masters winner, Premier League giant-killer. But behind the pyrotechnics and the sing-alongs, this is a story about grit. About a lad from Fazakerley who nearly threw it all away – through the gambling debts, the wilderness years, the local league night where he couldn't hit a double and rang his manager from the car park to say he was 'done'.

Bulletproof is about a dad who plonked his kid on a bar stool and changed his life. It’s about a baboon in a Basel zoo, chinning a chicken and using a trouser press to warm sausage rolls. And it's about what happens when you refuse to give up on the thing you love most.

Featuring Bunting’s exclusive behind-the-scenes view of the professional darts tour, this is the incredible and hilarious story of life on tour from one of the greatest personalities in the game.

Commentaires

'When Bunting steps up towards the oche at Ally Pally and does his Christ the Redeemer pose, followed by the double ear-cups to costumed Marios and Luigis bellowing their lungs out in the front row, he gets a level of fevered adoration above anything that greets Ronaldo at Al-Nassr. We know where we’d rather be.' Guardian
‘A genuine bloke. So fun, so caring, and one of the nicest darts players you’ll ever meet. The whole darting world loves him.’ Luke Humphries
‘People love Stephen because you can imagine joining him for some karaoke down your local boozer. He’s one of your own. But he’s also a great darts player. Stephen Bunting is the perfect mixture.’ Barry Hearn
'This is a player who journeys deep into the well every single time he steps on stage. No exceptions. A killer theme tune as a shield, and his darts as daggers, but still the same battle fought with the demons on his shoulder, a mountain of nerves to climb. Before anything else, he is a father, a husband, a friend, who always wants to give, more than he wants to take.' Colin Murray
