Just in time for the World's Darts Championship kicking off on December 15th, we've nabbed brilliant darts presenter Emma Paton for this episode! Emma explains how she swapped being an Olympic level sprinter, for a career as one of the top female presenters in the world of sports. After sacrificing her social life and working gruelling hours for 7 years before even getting a chance on the big screen, Emma proves that a combination of skill and determination is essential to making it big. She delves into her failed screen tests, the one question that led her to flop her first interview with the boss of Sky Sports News, and how a personal invite from wrestler Triple H snowballed into Emma landing her dream role. Plus Dan Dawson's dodgy on-air comment, how she managed to embarrass herself in front of Michael van Gerwen, and her prediction for the winner of the World Champs! Learn more about your ad choices.
