Pete Evans

Peter Evans was a contestant in series 5, first eppearing on 8 November 1984, beating Leslie Olson 67-48. He only won two more games before losing at the hands of Jane Smith. However, this was enough for him to return for the series finals as #4 seed. He 'took revenge' on Jane Smith in the quarter-finals, defeating her 49-38, and beat #2 seed Colin Pearce 53-43 in a close-run match. In the final, he faced Bob Violett, running out the 87-71 winner. He returned for Championship of Champions II, and made it all the way to the final where he faced Clive Freedman in a nail-biting contest. 10 points ahead going into the conundrum, Peter could only sit and watch as Clive unscrambled two consecutive crucial conundrums to run out the 91-81 winner. Peter returned in 1996 for the series 33, but was defeated in his first game 50-28 by Evan Simpson, denying him a mouth-watering rematch with Clive in the following round.
