Darts sensation Luke Littler is set to front a new Netflix series, "Beat Luke Littler," which will see amateur players challenge the world number one.

The live event offers a substantial £501,000 prize to any of the 20 chosen participants who can defeat the 19-year-old prodigy.

Aspiring contenders can enter open regional heats, scheduled to take place in London and Manchester this September.

Littler himself launched the call for participants through a video message, where he was seen addressing social media comments from individuals confident in their ability to beat him.

Looking at the camera, he says: “Reckon you could beat me in a game of darts? Let’s go.”

The show will air on Friday, 30 October, live on Netflix.

Littler began playing darts when he was just 18 months old and reached the PDC World Championship final at age 16, losing to Luke Humphries.

His breakout year came in 2024 when he won the Premier League and Grand Slam of Darts.

He became the youngest world number one at the 2025 PDC World Darts Championship in January 2025 at just 17 years old.

On Sunday evening, Littler bulldozed his way to a second consecutive Betfred World Matchplay title as he crushed Gerwyn Price 18-9 in Blackpool.

The 19-year-old averaged 111.53 in the final, setting an average for the tournament as a whole of 111.04 to break Phil Taylor’s record of 106.31.

Littler also broke his own competition record for 180s as he hit 12 in the final to reach 66 for the week. Littler became only the third man to successfully defend the Matchplay final after Taylor and Michael van Gerwen, who did it most recently in 2016.

It keeps Littler on course for a clean sweep of trophies in 2026, having already won the World Championship, UK Open, Premier League and the Masters, while he will defend the Grand Slam, Grand Prix and Players Championship Finals.

When his MBE was announced in June 2025, Littler said: “This is an amazing and unexpected honour but one which I am very grateful for.

“To receive a recognition like this is something I had never thought would be possible and it is a proud moment.

“It’s unbelievable what I’ve done for my sport. I’m happy, my family is happy and I can’t wait to receive it.”
