Chris Kirby in Series 60.

Chris Kirby was a contestant in Series 60 and 90. As of his first set of games, he was about to start a degree in History and English at Liverpool John Moores University. As of his second round of appearances, he was from Widnes, Cheshire and working as a Key Account Manager for the UK/Nordics division of the US construction equipment supplier Illinois Tool Works. He has also been an Apterite since 2009.

Appearances

Series 60

Chris first appeared towards the very end of Series 60, where two wins were notched up before he eventually became unstuck against eventual Series 61 series finalist Jacqueline Baker, who solved the crucial conundrum MEDIALUST to relegate Chris to defeat.

Series 90

However, roughly 15 and a half years later and with a considerable amount of time on Apterous now under his belt, Kirby returned, and kicked off with a century in a very convincing second debut against fellow returnee Jane Bates whom he held to under 10 points despite not gambling on the very much valid OUTSTARES in the final Letters round.
