Alan Young was a contestant in Series 69 and an octochamp in Series 86. As of his second appearance, he is a Business Studies Teacher from Paisley and is also an Apterite. He has participated in a number of Co events, including COLIN XI and COLIN XII, and ran Co:Glasgow 2015 in May 2015, and will return for the series finals in December 2022.
Young made his debut in October 2013 where, after a three-game win streak, he was unseated in his fourth by Michael McLaughlin on a crucial conundrum, whilst suffering from a migraine.
Young returned to the show just under 9 years after his first appearance, kicking off his second stint with a victory over fellow Apterite Joseph Bartram. But this time, Young's octochamp pursuit could not be stopped, as he added a further seven wins to his tally which included four centuries. He achieved a high score of 117 in his fifth game, which also saw him spot 2 nines; MOLESTING and REPUTTING.
Young wrapped up with a score of 90 in his eighth game, which was broadcast on a Saturday due to the Queen's State Funeral causing his last five heats to be delayed by one day. This secured octochampdom and membership of the 800 club with a final total of 806, provisionally placing him as the 4th seed for the finals between Quinn Bartlett and Joe Dobinson.
