Littler had to produce a comeback to beat Gerwyn Price during Premier League Darts finals night.
Littler, 18, had been second best in the opening exchanges as he struggled on the outer ring. The Iceman didn't need a second invitation to punish The Nuke, and stormed into the lead.
However, after the break, Littler came out swinging and Price didn't have an answer as Littler booked his spot in the final - where he will face Nathan Aspinall or Luke Humphries.
"When he hit the double five to go 6-4 up I took myself straight off stage, I needed to get myself up for it," Littler explained.
"The first five or six legs I was nervous and going into the break 6-4 down was not what I wanted. I knew, especially after last year, that I love coming on after a break so I relaxed myself
and I got the job done.

and cooled myself down and said 'you can do it'. I got the job done.
"I know I can relax now. I'll watch the first 10 legs of the other semi-final and then when they get to the break I'll get on the practice board."
Littler is looking to go back-to-back in his pursuit of darting immortality.

The 18-year-old sensation beat Humphries in the final last year.
Speaking ahead of his semi-final with Aspinall, Cool Hand said: ""I played really well at the Euro Tour last weekend so I got some good confidence out of it. I was pleased with the way I was
playing.
