Tony Green

Tony Abraham Green (born 1939, UK) was announcer and co-host of the popular television darts quiz "Bullseye", produced by Central for ITV, and returned in the new version of the show which aired from April 2006, produced by Granada for Challenge. He also reprised his role of 'scorer' on a special edition of Bullseye which aired as part of the Gameshow Marathon series and was broadcast on ITV1 on 19 May 2007.

A former darts player and referee, he is the BBC's lead commentator for the annual World Professional Darts Championship staged at the Lakeside Country Club in Frimley Green, Surrey. In his capacity as a BDO official, he was a protagonist in the dispute which resulted in the formation of a rival governing body for world darts. He is also a former chair of the IDPA "(International Darts Players' Association)".

In 2005, Green was named the 11th most important Tony in the country by readers of the "Radio Times", sandwiched between Tony Benn in 10th and Tony Hart in 12th.

Green also appeared on Channel 4's "Meet Ricky Gervais", which ran for one series in 2000.

On 18 May and 19 May, 2007, Green co-hosted Challenge TV's coverage of the inaugural PDC US Open tournament.
