One Hundred and Eighty is a British darts game show that aired on Sky 1 from 15 September to 22 October 2015 and is hosted by Davina McCall and Freddie Flintoff with Russ Bray as the role of the referee and Rod Studd as the role of the commentator.
Background
The show airs on Sky 1 and is hosted by Davina McCall with commentary from Freddie Flintoff and Rod Studd. It is filmed at Winter Gardens, Blackpool.[2]
Format
Two pro dart players first throw darts on the dartboard in numerical order; they have 90 seconds to complete the board, with the time beginning when their first dart hits the double 1. They take it in turns to throw three darts each; while one dart player retrieves their darts from the board, the other one throws. For each target hit, £1,000 is added to the prize pool (for a maximum prize of £20,000). Each pro player then teams up with an amateur player and two of their friends. The teams then go head-to-head. For every round a team wins, they win ten points towards the Doubles Decider.
The Race
The host flings quick-fire questions at the teams for 45 seconds on the buzzer, with correct answers moving the team up a target. After 45 seconds, the dart players take over and are given 45 seconds to throw darts at targets. The team with the highest number of points at the end of this round wins.[3]
The Zone
This round involves the teams trying to get from 180 to 0. The first question is on the buzzer, with a correct answer giving that team control of the board. They can then choose to take a question or to throw; questions move that team upwards a level, with levels being 30, 50, 80 and 100 points and the first buzzer question being for 30 points. At any level, they can choose to throw, with the players then being required to throw at progressively smaller targets. The first to get down to 0 wins.[3]
Stop the Clock
One team answers a series of questions until either they give five correct answers or sixty seconds pass; whichever comes first. After that, the opposing team has that amount of time to get as far as they can around a board of 12 targets. The teams then switch roles. Whichever team gets furthest round wins.[3]
Pro Legs
After each of the first three rounds, the professional dart players go against each other in a standard game of darts: first to 501 from 0 wins, and players must end in a double. Any 180s award that team an automatic £500; nine-dart legs award the player £1,000.[3]
Doubles Decider
The contestants play with their professional player in a round of doubles darts. The points they have accrued in the previous rounds are taken off 501 to start with. Whichever team gets to 0 first wins and goes on to play The Final Throw.[3]
The Final Throw
The darts player are given two minutes to hit the triples around the outside to unlock to particular amounts of money (seen below). When (s)he's finished, or if the player says "Stop", the contestant takes throws at the doubles to try and win as much of that money as possible. With each double hit, more money is won.[3]
