George Noble is my favorite 180 caller, followed closely by Russ Bray. Kirk is my favorite overall in terms of counting, game shot calls and those great 171/74/77 calls
Those 171/177 calls from Kirk are freaking awesome lol. His 180s not so much. It's how darts scores are supposed to be called! The Puppy is right alongside him with his style and the best 180s.
Russ Bray is simply the legend. Close second is the smooth George Noble. Those two stand leagues ahead of the rest with their iconic calls (even though they're miles apart in style).
It's so hard to pick a favourite, each of them are so good! I love when Phil Taylor kisses Bruce Spendley before he's finished announcing him as world champion!
I love games where Kirk is the referee. Also, with Terry, I think he has a trademark when a player busts his score by going over by saying "Too many" rather than "No score".
Paul hinks and George noble. My favorites, but the 177, 174, 171, 168, 162 go to bevins for sure. Russ bray though, changed his 180 call a bit over the years but everyone knows his. I just love darts.
The old BDO ref Martin Fitzmaurice, big bloke with the balding pate... he was my favourite when watching The Lakeside world championships every New Year's in the 90s. Used to joke with mates that he could rest a pint on his huge beer belly! lol. Such a great caller!
My opinion on the calls: Best 180 Paul Hinks Best 170... George Noble Best 140 Freddie Williams Best Game Shot Noble/Bevins My favourite referee is Paul Hinks
George Noble is the best caller no question. Look up all of the best games of the last 10 years and George is calling nearly all of them. The man just lifts a crowd. Bruce Spendley's 180 calls were the best of the lot though
Huw Ware reminds me so much of the caller who can be heard on the few surviving recordings of the News Of The Worlds finals at the Ally Pally. I imagine that when he was looking for his own style, he was inspired by that.
Kirk bevans in my opinion gets involved with the match with how he calls, for example if someone has hit a 177 at a crucial and tense time he will exaggerate the call a lot more than usual.
Anyone who likes to listen to the sound of hoover's or hairdryers to help them sleep, should appreciate paul hinks 180 calls. It's got that tone in sound for me.
Huw Ware has all it takes to be a professional referee- everything but the voice. The job is like being a radio host. You can be a good host all you want, but if you don't have a pleasant voices, no one will listen to it. Same for Huw unfortunately.
Bruno Vervoort with the help of a vocal teacher there might be improvement possible, but yeah his tone and timbre are awful. Darts is beside a sport also entertainment and you need to hype up the crowd with your calls as well.
I like Huw, he has a bit of, I cannot describe it correctly 100%, but he has an old-fashioned tone in his voice, a bit authoriative. Underrated in my opinion.
Love Kirk singing 180. Also with Terry Jowett, if a player busts his or her score by scoring too many, instead of saying "no score", he'll say "too many". Love it.
@@giacomopietrosanti-darts1195 Years ago, there was a stage tournament Super League which was the Top 8 players of New Zealand at the time and a match got televised when I heard him say it.
It's gotta be Russ Bray. Alot of people are saying Kirk which is fair but he's too inconsistent for me, he'll either do the best call of 140 or the version he does in this vid where he mumbles the 40 part. And often he does the mumble version.
5:51 R.I.P Bruce Spendley we always loved you as a darts referee 6th September 1940 - 15th June 2021 💔 6:59 R.I.P Freddie Williams we always loved you as a darts referee 3rd June 1936 - 11th November 2017 💔
My favourite referee is Russ Bray. Hey Giacomo Pietrosanti, could you maybe make a video with all the commentators in it please, and see who people think commentates the best? I think you've made some great videos, and I think that a video like that would work too.
My favorites: 180 - Bruce Spendley / Kirk Bevins / Paul Hinks / Russ Bray / George Noble / Huw Ware 170 - George Noble / Russ Bray / Kirk Bevins 140 - Kirk Bevins / George Noble Game shot - Russ Bray / Kirk Bevins / George Noble Game shot and match - Russ Bray / George Noble / Kirk Bevins Game shot and the championship - George Noble / Russ Bray / Kirk Bevins
Great video idea! I like the voice from Russ, but sometimes he takes too long and rarely makes mistakes. But i'm satisfied with the core team in the tournaments. Who is your favourite?
Russ is gruff and gravelly and mostly the same volume kirks is also up there because of the nuances in his voice when calling the scores hard to choose between them two
Subscribe to my channel and follow me on twitter! twitter.com/giacomopietros2?s=09
Interviewer: How many cigarettes did you smoke for your voice?
Russ Bray: Yes
He's not smoking and drinking for many years now
151bar151 bro that was a joke
@@Blueskies24TV so what?
@@151bar151 hes kid dont mind. If its joke youre apparently not allowed to comment anything about it,
@@151bar151 he did chain smoke for years beforehand though
I also like Kirk Bevins' 60 calls.
He always makes you feel like you did something terribly wrong there & he disprizes you for it 😁
lol. I've noticed that. Not sure it's a good thing though. If I was up there and he was calling my poor scores like that, I think I'd get irritated
Yet his 140 and 180 calls? I can't stand. Sounds like he's singing choir.
Which, shouldn't bother me lol it's darts, but it does.
Russ Bray is such a legend at shouting the 180
Yeah, it sounds like a 1978 Leyland National bus starting up on a December morning! lol
hes a dhead
Got to be kirk bevens surely! He changes his calls based on the situation and timing its quality
yes, he is the best caller
Only seen him make one mistake ever
His 60 is pretty sarcastic though, I must say. lol. But yes. His voice is top notch. Makes every number sound real good.
I think Russ bray is best
They pretty much all do that, it’s just that Bevins has the voice of a choir boy that it’s more obvious
George Noble is my favorite 180 caller, followed closely by Russ Bray. Kirk is my favorite overall in terms of counting, game shot calls and those great 171/74/77 calls
Same here 👍
I get ear pain every time I hear George Nobles 180
Those 171/177 calls from Kirk are freaking awesome lol. His 180s not so much. It's how darts scores are supposed to be called! The Puppy is right alongside him with his style and the best 180s.
Noble's 180 call is smooth as silk. 10/10
Yeah, how 180s should be called in darts! But otherwise it's Kirk Bevins hands down, especially when he lets rip on the 177s etc! lol
Russ Bray is simply the legend. Close second is the smooth George Noble. Those two stand leagues ahead of the rest with their iconic calls (even though they're miles apart in style).
Russ Brays 180s are like someone putting on a chainsaw when you've just started saying something. Love it
I like Paul Hinks' calls the most. They are simple, but good and definitely not annoying.
180: Russ Bray
170+: Kirk Bevins
140: Russ Bray
Rest In peace Bruce Spendley 1940-2021 absolute gentleman
Amen.
amen
amen.
Paul hinks has the best 180 I don’t know why I absolutely love it lol
Bruce Spendley's 180 call is by far my favourite.
And his Game Shot too.
Yes for sure
I love all callers. The PDC does well in selecting them
Paul Hinks on the 180, Kirk Bevins for the 177 and George Noble on the 130+ scores.
And the winers is George Noble (The Puppy)
Gotta love the voice, but Noble was what I heard growing up! AMAZING 180 call
George Noble always the best, he got to call both of Phil's 9 darters against James Wade in the 2010 premier league final
Paul Hinks 180s are the best!!
Noble’s 180 is goat, nobody can tell me otherwise
Haven’t even watched the video. But the answer is Russ Bray.
It's so hard to pick a favourite, each of them are so good! I love when Phil Taylor kisses Bruce Spendley before he's finished announcing him as world champion!
The old school calls for 180 are the best
WWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANhandradanAAAYYYYYYYYYYteeeee
oh come on, Hinks calls 177 same way as 60
That’s because hinks is shit
@@greaser7765 Get John Higgins to replace him
Kirk Bevins without a doubt! World Championships final 2022 was just something else that put him on the map
Mine was the 2018 Worlds, especially that MVG-Cross Semifinal that put him on the map.
I love games where Kirk is the referee. Also, with Terry, I think he has a trademark when a player busts his score by going over by saying "Too many" rather than "No score".
Paul hinks and George noble. My favorites, but the 177, 174, 171, 168, 162 go to bevins for sure. Russ bray though, changed his 180 call a bit over the years but everyone knows his. I just love darts.
Yh he's shortened it of the top of my head, probably to not disturb the flow of the next thrower
I love Paul hinks 180 call… it’s like he’s not bothered 🤣🤣🤣
Love this compilation but i like all of them
Got to be ole Freddie love the way he says 60 haha
Same. 100 & 140.
Kirk used to he my brother's maths teacher when he was still at school, and he's also been on Countdown. No wonder he's such a good referee
The old BDO ref Martin Fitzmaurice, big bloke with the balding pate... he was my favourite when watching The Lakeside world championships every New Year's in the 90s. Used to joke with mates that he could rest a pint on his huge beer belly! lol. Such a great caller!
My opinion on the calls:
Best 180 Paul Hinks
Best 170... George Noble
Best 140 Freddie Williams
Best Game Shot Noble/Bevins
My favourite referee is Paul Hinks
Spot on with the 140.
@@lewissmith3896 i just love hearing it
George Noble is the best caller no question. Look up all of the best games of the last 10 years and George is calling nearly all of them. The man just lifts a crowd. Bruce Spendley's 180 calls were the best of the lot though
Noble has such a posh, smooth voice. It sounds really classic
Russ Bray screaming 180's are boss
Huw Ware reminds me so much of the caller who can be heard on the few surviving recordings of the News Of The Worlds finals at the Ally Pally. I imagine that when he was looking for his own style, he was inspired by that.
In my Opinion you are the best darts Video Maker ❤
Thanks mate!
@@giacomopietrosanti-darts1195 i hope you become more clicks and i am from germany And I found you about Marcel.
Russ Bray Is A Greatest Referee Of All Time, I Always Listen To His 180 And Its A Masterpiece.❤🎯
George Noble the greatest voice in darts in my opinion
Kirk bevans in my opinion gets involved with the match with how he calls, for example if someone has hit a 177 at a crucial and tense time he will exaggerate the call a lot more than usual.
Russ bray and George noble are the best. Kirk bevins is quality as well
Huw sounds like that annoying teacher telling you to be quiet during a lesson
Everyone gangster until Noble announces the tie-break
Anyone who likes to listen to the sound of hoover's or hairdryers to help them sleep, should appreciate paul hinks 180 calls. It's got that tone in sound for me.

He has an good voice
Yea his voice is kind of annoying
when you hear him talk normally he sounds fine but when calling scores he sounds retarded.
1. Kirk Bevins
2. Russ Bray
3. George Noble
Got to be Russ Bray!! He’s got the best voice crack when he calls out 180 and he got me laughing so hard!!!😆😆
Has to be Bruce spendley
Can‘t get used to huw‘s calls haha
I hate him.
George nobles 180 call is by far the best
Kirk understands the game and how to adapt his calls. Very intelligent individual - he did win a series of CountDown after all
Kirk Bevins just sings his numbers now 🤣
Love Kirk singing 180. Also with Terry Jowett, if a player busts his or her score by scoring too many, instead of saying "no score", he'll say "too many". Love it.
I hope he'll ref again when the World Series are back to hear this!

Well kirk bevins makes little mistakes and has calls based on situations so it has to be him but russ bray is iconic.
It's gotta be Russ Bray.

5:51 R.I.P Bruce Spendley we always loved you as a darts referee

3rd June 1936 - 11th November 2017 💔
Just imagine Brian Blessed as a ref 😂😂😂
Paul Hinks always my Favourite Ref. and Caller
Can you include Charlie Corstophine? He reffed some European events and the Players' Championship finals.
Bruce Spendley was rightly inducted into the hall of fame. He really was bloody brilliant!
I'm sorry but Huw Ware is the badest caller....
I'm almost crying after his 180s
Such an annoying voice
@Don Robbie with Devon petersen
Worst*
Kirk is great, but I really like the last guy too, never seen him before but what a voice he has!
Russ Bray's 180 is badass
Dave you require fowrty 🤣🤣 class, love the arrows, god bless
For me kirk overall but George noble has the best 180 call
PAUL HINKS has got the best 180 - easily
Got to be Paul, he has the most powerful voice. Sounds amazing and gets the party started
My favourite referee is Russ Bray.
Hey Giacomo Pietrosanti, could you maybe make a video with all the commentators in it please, and see who people think commentates the best? I think you've made some great videos, and I think that a video like that would work too.
My favorites:
180 - Bruce Spendley / Kirk Bevins / Paul Hinks / Russ Bray / George Noble / Huw Ware
170 - George Noble / Russ Bray / Kirk Bevins
140 - Kirk Bevins / George Noble
Game shot - Russ Bray / Kirk Bevins / George Noble

Bruce and Freddie easily
Yep.
Kirk all day for me even my kids scream it like he does lol
Paul Hinks and Kirk Bevans are my favourite callers on 180
All of them 🙏 All of theeeem 💥💥💥
George Noble for me. So smooth.
3:50 The best 180!
Russ bray got the best 140 call
Kirk is an absolute geezer. The best.
Pual hinks is such a laugh
Guess Noble is the best one from this group. My favorite caller is Nick Rolls though!
In 2022:
1. Kirk Bevins
2. Russ Bray
3. George Noble
4. Huw Ware
Huw ware should be binned
I love them all
Kirk bevens singing the 180 is hilarious
Bray goes full coffee machine doesn’t he?
George Noble "The Puppy" is my favourite.
Great video idea! I like the voice from Russ, but sometimes he takes too long and rarely makes mistakes. But i'm satisfied with the core team in the tournaments. Who is your favourite?
Kirk Bevins!
Kirk is really great , love the way he says siiixty… and everything in the 170`s
Russ is gruff and gravelly and mostly the same volume kirks is also up there because of the nuances in his voice when calling the scores hard to choose between them two
Bruce Spendley without doubt.
Paul Hinks. Greatest 180 call, for me it is not even close.
The fuckin Ricky Evans clip 🤣😭
George Noble has the best 180 call of all time.
Freddie Williams is GOAT
So true.
Bruce Spendley had the best game shot and the championship call. cant tel me otherwise
Kirk has a weird intonation at end of each call. Like he’s asking a question. Not for me. George noble has that classic style
I can’t stand his 180 calls. Sounds like a robot with no tone or emotion in his voice at all. Ruins any match I see him on.
Russ Brays 180 shout makes my shit itch. The rest I don't care for, they are just voices, so i am not bothered
Bruce Spendly reminds me watching darts as a kid
Definitely Kirk! 😍
Agree love him
Bruce spendley absolute legend
I always do the Hinks when i throw a 180 😂 to annoy my friends mostly 😋
