I’m an ex-darts world champ but now stack shelves at the Co-op for £9 an hour – Dan Walker asked me for ice cream cones

A FORMER darts champion now stacks shelves for £9-an-hour – and he insists he absolutely “loves” his new career.

The 61-year-old John ‘John Boy’ Walton was crowned the BDO World Darts Championship back in 2001.

However, the Sheffield-born star suffered a neck injury and was eventually forced to retire from the oche several years ago.

That led to Walton embarking on a new venture stacking shelves at a Co-op in his hometown in 2019.

Despite the change career-wise, he is adamant that he enjoys every second of it.
