Probably needs some verifying but one or two people quoted a figure of around eight million for when Keith Deller beat Eric Bristow to win the 1983 BDO title.
Quite a lot of parallels with the run up to this final, when you think about it (Deller had just turned 23)
Might have been even higher for one or two finals - the early 80s seemed to represent the peak of interest.
