Sit back, put your feet up and switch on the darts. It's that time of year when the sporting world turns their attention to the Alexandra Palace in London for the World Darts Championship.
It's been 30 years since the PDC's first World Championship began and we have seen pretty much everything over the last three decades.
From iconic walk-ons, arguments on the oche, huge upsets and nine-darters, including a certain "I can't spake" - the World Championship always delivers.

The 31st World Darts Championship takes place from Friday December 15 to Wednesday January 3.
There is action every day apart from Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year's Eve.
The World Darts Championship is held at the Alexandra Palace in London, which has been the case since 2008.
Previously, the Circus Tavern in Essex hosted the biggest darts event of the year from 1994 to 2007.
There's no definitive answers for this but hosting a renowned tournament each year which sells out every time probably helps.
'Ally Pally' also hosts the Masters snooker tournament in January and Pool's Mosconi cup biannually during the winter too, so it feels like the home of cue sports in this period.
You won't miss an arrow in the World Championship on the dedicated Sky Sports Darts channel, with the best of the action also on Sky Sports Main Event.
Coverage begins on Friday December 15 at 7pm, with afternoon sessions at 12.30pm and evening sessions at 7pm taking place for the rest of the tournament up to the quarter-finals on Monday January 1.
The semi-finals are on Tuesday January 2 from 7.30pm and the final is on Wednesday January 3 at 7pm.

Wayne Mardle breaks down the World Darts Championship draw and picks out the tough games for the seeded players
The World Championship uses the sets format, with each set being the first to three legs. The deciding set must be won by at least two legs, so if it's 2-2 in the final set, a player must win 4-2 or 5-3. If it's 5-5, a sudden-death leg will take place with no throw for the bull, so the alteration of whoever throws first simply continues.

Fallon Sherrock is one of two female players in the World Championship, along with two-time BDO Women's world champion Mikuru Suzuki.
Sherrock has a historic run to the third round in 2020 when she beat Ted Evetts to become the first female player to win a match at a PDC World Championship. The 'Queen of the Palace' then defeated Mensur Suljovic before losing in the last 32 to Chris Dobey.
Sherrock faces Jermaine Wattimena on December 17 with the winner progressing to a round two date with Martin Schindler.
Suzuki played in the 2020 tournament but lost in the first round to James Richardson and is making her second appearance at the Ally Pally this year. She plays Ricardo Pietreczko on December 19.

Watch Fallon Sherrock become the first female to hit a televised nine-darter earlier this year
Michael Smith is the defending champion, therefore seeded first, after beating Michael van Gerwen in a final which is remember for THAT nine-darter. No player has defended their title since Gary Anderson in 2015 and 2016.
Van Gerwen will be among the big favourites but the form player is Luke Humphries, who has won three of the four tournaments.
Phil 'The Power' Taylor won 14 PDC world titles but also became world champion twice before the PDC era.
It's a record which many think will be impossible to beat. Van Gerwen has won three titles, with John Part, Gary Anderson, Adrian Lewis and Peter Wright the only other multiple winners.
