Meet George Ping, the 13-year-old darts starlet from East Thurrock

An East Thurrock teenager holds ambitions of becoming a professional darts player.
George Ping, 13, has been playing the sport for nine years, inspired by his dad Chris, who spent a lot of time on the professional tour.
He is known as 'Little Pingo' due to his small stature, which saw George previously use a chair to collect his darts and develop a unique throw.
George joined the Junior Darts Corporation this year - and wants to become professional in the next three to seven years.
Warren Muggleton met George and his dad Chris at the East Thurrock Community Association.
