Bob Lunt
Bob Lunt was a contestant in Series 79.
Lunt made his debut on July 25th 2018 and won in a tight contest against Bryan Harrison, where neither player could unscramble the crucial conundrum OVERNOFOP. This was followed by 6 more victories, including a high score of 101. In Lunt's third game, his wife was the audience member who solved the conundrum. His run however came to an end on August 3rd, when he was beaten sensationally by Matthew Bass. Bass started off slowly but picked up speed spotting the eight letter word OUTCRIER to take the lead in the second half and ultimately prevailed with 104 points to Lunt's 80 points, although Lunt got the conundrum. Time will tell if Lunt's performance is strong enough to book a place in the Series finals in December 2018.
