Mandi Hale

Mandi Hale was the runner-up of series 18. She first appeared toward the end of the series, winning 5 heats before losing to Mark Cooper. She returned for the finals as #5 seed, and beat Derek Stuart-Clark in the quarter-final and octochamp Jonathan Anstey in the semi-final. The final against Yoga went to a crucial conundrum, but Mandi was pipped at the post and ultimately had to settle for series runner-up. Mandi returned for Championship of Champions V, but was knocked out in the first round by Lindsay Denyer. She also played in the supreme championship, but lost in the first round to Brian Hudson following a sudden death conundrum.

Mandi also appeared in an episode of the Crystal Maze, where her team lost heavily after only having 10 seconds on the clock for the Crystal Dome round (1)
