Hywel Jones

From Countdown
Hywel Jones in Series 88.

Hywel Jones was a contestant in Series 88. He was a supermarket Project Manager from Deeside (Flintshire).

Jones made his debut against Mark Brooks on 25 July 2023, scoring 82 to win his first game against Brooks' 76. From here, he achieved a further six victories, including a personal best of 98 in his fifth game. He was unseated in his seventh game by Harry Savage, who went onto become the first octochamp of the series, and with 585 points across his seven appearances, it unfortunately wasn't enough to qualify for the end-of-series finals.
