Judith Young in her quarter-final.

Judith Young was an octochamp and quarter-finalist in Series 53. She was from Carshalton, Greater London, and is also an Apterite.

She scored 707 points on her way to becoming an octochamp. An 82 – 56 victory on 21 January 2005 was enough to end the run of Brian Roles, with steady scoring enough to ensure her quarter-final berth as the number six seed.

Young met Jon O'Neill in the third quarter-final, in a game due to be broadcast on 27 June 2005 – however, due to the death of Richard Whiteley the previous day, the recording was broadcast on 28 June. O'Neill ran out the winner, in a game notable for the complete inability of anyone in the studio to unscramble the conundrum IRONCASTS.
