Revision as of 16:10, 17 March 2009
Kirk Bevins, a recent Maths graduate, appeared on Countdown near the start of Series 51. He played reasonably well, though not brilliantly, and was beaten by octochamp Richard Pay. In one round he went blank as he could only see SHAGMAN, and comically guessed TURROTING for the conundrum instead of TORTURING.
He has been a prominent member of the online scene for several years, participating in numerous major tournaments and winning the first ever Goatdown Championship against Conor Travers. He has yet to win a COLIN or COBRIS event, despite turning up to every one thus far; however, his lowest position at these tournaments has been 10th when he lost 3 games on 3 crucial conundrums. He came 5th after defeating Series Champion Conor Travers, Series Champion Chris Wills and Series Champion Stewart Holden, only losing out on a crucial conundrum to Series Champion Mark Tournoff.
Due to his success at Countdown tournaments, and being the #1 ranked player on Apterous, Bevins appeared on the show again in Series 60. In his first show he set the record for the highest score for a challenger of 127, beating Jonathan Coles's earlier 124 record. His third show is widely believed to be the first ever 'perfect game', meaning no potential points were lost in any of the fifteen rounds.
