| − | Luke first appeared on television in the [[Episode 7102|second quarter-final of Series 80]] as the audience member who solved the conundrum {{word|LOVECRISP}} with the answer {{word|COVERSLIP}}, which also had {{word|SLIPCOVER}} as a valid solution.

| − | Nearly 6 months later, Luke made his debut as a player on 5 December 2019 against one-game winner [[Zach Hart]]. Two nine-letter words and scoring points in every round helped him beat Hart convincingly and catapult to 139 points. His score broke [[Hamish Williamson]]'s 10-year-old record for the highest ever score set by a challenger against a champion by 5 points and [[Elliott Mellor]]'s 7-month-old [[Episode 7076|record debut score]] by 8 points. Luke earned four more victories, while never falling below 113 points or failing to declare at least one nine-letter word, before stepping aside for the finals of Series 81.

| − | Luke soon returned to the programme on 2 January 2020 to carry over his unbeaten run in the first heat of Series 82, kicking off the new year in style with spots of the nine-letter words {{word|MONTICULE}} and {{word|ESTIMATOR}} to win his sixth game with 143 points, the joint fourth-highest ever achieved in the "new" 15-round format. In the third show of the series, he became the standout provisional number 1 seed and only the second octochamp ever to join the "1,000 club", setting the second-highest ever cumulative score of 1,024 points (an average of 128 per game) after Mellor himself in the process.

| − | Luke is the first contestant ever to declare a nine-letter word in all eight heat games. He declared 11 nines in total, more than any other contestant prior to the finals. His octochamp run also includes – for the first time ever on ''Countdown'' – a run of four consecutive scores [[List of 15-round scores over 125|over 125]]. He will almost certainly return later in the series to compete in the finals.
