 '''Matthew Turner''' was the runner-up of [[Series 43]]. He is a chess grandmaster and plays for Wood Green.
-Turner made his debut beating [[Andrew Jackson]] in the 95th heat of Series 43. He went on to play five more heats, never seeming in doubt until his sixth game against [[Sid Sears]]. Sears beat him to the buzzer on a crucial [[conundrum]] and he lost {{score|51|46}}.

 However, Turner was able to return for the finals as #5 seed, and first beat [[John Harrison]] in a close quarter-final. He went on to beat the undefeated [[David Williams (Series 43)|David Williams]] in the semis, the turning points being {{word|HANKIES}} and the final numbers game, bringing him to the [[Episode 2911|grand final]] against [[Graham Nash]]. In the final, Turner took an early lead with {{word|WINTERS}}, but offered two invalid words in a row, making him neck and neck with Nash at the end of Part One. However, Turner later slipped when Nash got the 901 target in the third numbers game, and his opponent also solved the final crucial conundrum {{word|ANEWREBEL}}, relegating Turner to the runner-up spot. For reasons unknown, he did not play in [[Championship of Champions XI]].
