Revision as of 04:11, 5 October 2010

Series 62 champion Oliver Garner (fourth left) with his winning dictionaries and trophy.
Oliver Garner holding the Trophy.

Series 62 is the most recently completed series of Countdown, and ran from January to June 2010. Series 62 was the first 15-round series in which only one of the players in the semi-finals was an octochamp. It had two overall octochamps, tied with Series 49 as the lowest number of octochamps in a 15-round series. The series, the third presented by Jeff Stelling, was won by Oliver Garner.

Seeds

Rank Name Wins Points
1 Oliver Garner 8 802
2 Danny Pledger 8 635
3 Dave Wilkinson 7 618
4 Peter Zyss 7 617
5 Craig Chittenden 6 662
6 Lee Graham 6 627
7 Nicki Sellars 6 556
8 Claudia Tyson 6 545
Between Series 38 and Series 59, players were sorted by number of wins, then by number of points. Points from both wins and losses count. Points from sudden death conundrums were not counted, and players with the same number of wins and points were sorted by highest score.

The winner of each game is displayed in bold.

Series finals

For the first time in any 15-round series, there were no crucial conundrums in the finals.

Quarter finals

It was no surprise when Oliver Garner beat Claudia Tyson 123 – 75, but what was surprising was that it turned out that Seeds 2, 3, and 4 did not make it past the quarter finals. Instead, through went Seeds 5, 6 and 7. At this point, Oliver Garner's chances shot up, being a member of the 800 club.

Semi-finals

In the first semi final, Oliver Garner left Maths wizz Craig Chittenden in a less closely fought game than expected. In The Second semi final, there was a rematch between Nicki Sellars and Lee Graham, who had met before in the preliminary rounds, and then, Lee Graham came out on top 76 – 73. But in the Semi Final, revenge tasted sweet for Nicki, as Lee lost by a whopping 38 points, 89 – 51. A special could be expected between these two...

Final

So, it was number one seed Oliver Garner versus number 7 seed, Nicki Sellars. Oliver Garner won by 45 points, 107 – 62, and became Countdown's 62nd champion.
