A darts star left Sky Sports presenter Emma Paton briefly taken aback after giving a light-hearted but unexpected response to a question involving Luke Littler.
The moment came during post-match interviews at the World Darts Championship, with the Ally Pally crowd creating its usual lively atmosphere. Paton asked the player how he planned to deal with the challenge of facing defending champion Littler, who has been in outstanding form.
The darts ace reacted with a playful remark that caught Paton by surprise and drew laughter from those nearby. His comment — delivered with a grin — was quickly met with cheers from the crowd.
Paton handled the moment smoothly, smiling as she steered the conversation back on track. “Well… maybe not that approach,” she joked, keeping the interview professional and upbeat.
Fans on social media quickly picked up on the clip, calling it “classic Ally Pally entertainment” and praising Paton for her calm, confident reaction.
Littler had already made headlines earlier in the night with a strong opening-round performance, and his presence continues to spark memorable moments both on and off the oche.
With the tournament now in full swing, supporters can expect more fireworks — from the darts and the interviews.
