The perfect start for Adams, who bunches three arrows in the red bit to open with a 180. Another shot at the nine-darter? No, the fifth arrow is awry after four perfect shots. Still, Wolfie, proudly sporting the cross of St George on the back of his white shirt, follows up with another 180, which Mitchell matches. Adams for the hold, but two doubles missed. Mitchell for 121... missed double 14. Despite the heavy scoring, we've got early double trouble, but Mitchell is finally in on double seven for a break.

Darts commentator on BBC Two

"What's Wolfie got left in the tank after last night's semi-final? As for Scott Mitchell, how are the nerves before the biggest final of his career?"

First set, first leg, it's Martin to throw first. Game on.

"Wooooooo, Ooooooooo, Ooooooooo."

Wolfie howls at the crowd, then begins his walk-on to a bit of Duran Duran. Both men are on stage, loosening up.

Mitchell, on the other hand, whitewashed Jeff Smith 6-0 in the semis, but was pushed all the way by Tony O'Shea in round one.

He is the first man to be introduced to the crowd, played on by Who Let The Dogs Out? There's no invisible dog lead, which is disappointing.

"Wolfie's had lots of battles here. He can just keep grinding him on the scoring, but I think it's going to be close."

Adams reached his fifth world final in the most dramatic of circumstances. After dropping only one set on the way to the semi-finals, he was puched all the way by Glen Durrant, winning in the deciding 11th set.

Wolfie also missed a shot at a nine-darter, which you can watch right here.

"Wolfie's a three-time world champion, he know not to panic. Scott is the new boy on the block, but he's the man of the moment and has shown he can play darts under pressure."

So, who is going to win this 38th BDO World Championship final? Will Wolfie become only the third man to win a fourth BDO title, or will Scotty become the big dog for the first time? Text on 81111 or tweet using the hashtag #bbcdarts., external

Also, with Adams aiming for a world title at the age of 58, who is sport's greatest ever veteran? Stanley Matthews? Jack Nicklaus? George Foreman?

"I've wandered through the practice room a few times since arriving here at Lakeside and both finalists look exceptionally relaxed, considering they're about to throw for a world title. Scott Mitchell has been hard at work on the practice board whenever I've seen him this afternoon, Martin Adams less so, but both will be ready for action come the first call of 'game on'."

Or should that be one old wolf and one new dog?

Three-time world champion Martin Adams, Wolfie to his nearest, dearest and the darting fraternity, is, at 58, aiming to extend his record as darts' oldest top dog.

In his way is a first-time finalist, Scott Mitchell, the Scotty Dog.

Yep, a four-week period of tungsten-tossing darting-delight comes to a conclusion here, with the crowning of 2015's second world champion.

Like last Sunday's pulsating PDC finale, we've got one old dog and one new, erm, dog.

I'll be honest, I was beyond gutted when the Christmas tree came down this week.

As we know, darts means Christmas and Christmas means darts. Tonight, it all comes to an end.

I'm not sure how we're all going to cope.
