Luke Littler has hilariously admitted New Year's Eve 'won't be quiet' after his electric win over Raymond van Barneveld on Saturday night.
The 16-year-old won 4-1 against his childhood hero to make the quarter-finals of the competition at Alexandra Palace.
Littler performed at the peak of his powers during his win.
And the youngster has now hilariously admitted New Year's Eve 'won't be quiet' as he looks to celebrate his latest triumph.

“No I don’t think it is [a quiet New Year]," he admitted.
"I think I’ve got to get off and do all the media back there.
"After I’ve done all the media I’ll go and see my family. Just chill out now.”
Due to his young age, Littler cannot legally drink.
But it's not unfeasible to imagine the teenager celebrating with a kebab, having revealed his fondness for the food during the course of the competition so far.
Littler also paid tribute to the Alexandra Palace crowd and was delighted they cheered on both players.
“The crowd were unbelievable," said the youngster, who has now earned £50,000 from his exploits in London.
"They were singing Walking in a Littler Wonderland and Barney Army. They were on both our sides.
"I’m just so glad to get over the line.”
While it was joy for Littler, it was a painful defeat for Van Barneveld to take.
When quizzed on whether anybody can stop Littler, the Dutchman wasn't in the mood for that discussion.
"I don't give a damn about that," he told ViaPlay.
"This is a hard one for me.
"I saw chances, especially after Gary's elimination against Brendan, but it's over for me.
"Tonight I have to take on this young kid and I wish him the best of luck."

He added: "It looks like you are throwing against a darts robot."
"There was absolutely no honor in this.
"I didn't throw that bad at all, but this is not normal. Incredible."
John Part, meanwhile, has hailed Littler and thinks the 16-year-old can go all the way and secure glory this winter.
"It's the sort of performance, and I have to sort of put aside that he is 16, forget about that because you can't deal with it if you're thinking about that, but that was a performance that you look at from any player and you say, 'they can win the tournament if they play like that,'" he told Sky Sports.

"It was 105 average, it was against basically a ton average the whole match, and he won easily in sets, 4-1.
"He answered every bell, it was there every time he needed it.
"Really a great performance and I have to say, that's the sort of darts that does win titles and he's getting awfully close to really achieving that I think, if he can keep turning up and doing it, and I don't see why he can't."
