Or will we?

There's more darts to ease you back in to reality, more arrows to soften the crash landing.

Point your peepers towards the Lakeside, where the BDO World Championships have just got under way and will be covered extensively across the BBC.

We'll be back for live coverage of the final next Sunday. Until then, don't work too hard.

And then it was over. If Christmas means darts and darts means Christmas, then that really is your lot.

Tomorrow, we'll be back to the grind... 

The best of finals? Perhaps not, but it's been a tournament to remember.

Shock exits for Michael van Gerwen and Phil Taylor, brilliance from Raymond van Barneveld and a nine-darter from Gary Anderson.

Gary Anderson: "I am getting older and the body is starting to hurt. I'll keep plodding on and will give it another shot next year."

Gary Anderson: "It never really happened for me. It was a scrape from the start with some good and some bad darts but I'll take it. 

"The way I've played and Aidy has played, it kind of killed the game."

Runner-up Adrian Lewis: "Neither of us could get the graft of the match, we couldn't get on with it.

"It was a strange old game. I thought I played well in the last three sets.

"Fair play to him, he deserves the title. I think he's been the best player in the tournament.

"I'm back up to number three in the world. I'll get back on the practice board and put the demons of this match behind me." 

Gary Anderson is ready to take the Sid Waddell Trophy and a cheque for £300,000.

"And still champion of the wwooorrrllllldddd...."

As he gets his hands on the silverware, the crowd chant his name.

Gary Anderson is the champion of the world. Again.

There's pyro, there's dry ice, there's a hug between the players.

The highest quality final? Perhaps not, but it was compelling stuff.

Won with double 12! Glory, glory Gary Anderson!

The Scot wins a second successive world title in a match with more 180s than any other ever seen in the PDC.

Anderson has his revenge on Lewis, his conqueror in the 2011 final.

An Anderson 180 to open up. He's ahead in the leg, against the darts. He's to a finish first. He'll have 104 for the match...

Anderson was pounded for four legs, but somehow found a break. This is loose, but both players are tense. Not too many signs of trebles.

Anderson finally gets it right to leave 170 - the big daddy.

60...60... bullseye?

Would you believe it? A 170 checkout for Gary Anderson! He's one leg away!

What has happened to Adrian Lewis? He's just not missing. His average is north of 100, but it's still Anderson that is down to a finish first.

He can't take 121, can Lewis take 140? Both make a bad fist of it, but Anderson is back on track with D8!

He's back within two legs and has the throw!

This is the big one. If Anderson holds three times, he's the champ. Lewis a 180, Anderson sets up 160.

Lewis in again, another 180, even with a dropped dart.

He's on 45 for a break. 13. Double 16? Yes! Lewis breaks! This match has come to life!

Lewis has won four legs on the spin and is back in with a shout.

Luke Almond: Don't understand people who think darts isn't a sport! Pure drama!

Lewis is doing all he can here, making Anderson win it, rather than gifting it away.

Lewis batters the 20 bed, which is starting to look like it has been chewed by a dog. The Stokie will come for 74 and the set.

14? Yes. 20? Yes. Tops? The set sealed in the blink of an eye.

Anderson, though, is now playing about as well as he has in the match. A 650 maximum of the tournament. Lewis still has the better average, but is 23-16 down in legs. Anderson leaves 70, Lewis waits on 40.

One at tops for the Scot? No. Lewis breaks. He's on course for the set.

Lewis is such a huge man, he can almost lean from the oche and place the darts in. He responds to an Anderson maximum with one of his own, getting to 81 after nine darts.

Double 12 for an 11-darter. What a way to respond to pressure.

Lewis has the darts in the 11th set. He must hold, otherwise this final will be as good as over.
