Timothy 'Tim' James was an octochamp in Series 91. He was a betting shop market place manager, and University of East Anglia climate science graduate from Norwich. He is also an Apterite and has now qualified for the end-of-series finals in June.
Heat games
Tim marked his debut with a century against incumbent champ Gary Fisher and followed that up with seven further victories, albeit not all comfortable; the best example of this was his needing of a crucial conundrum solve against returning contestant Diane Pratesi in his fourth match, where he also mentioned that his brother appeared on the show 'a couple of years ago', however it was not clarified who or when this was. He scored a personal best of 114 in his fifth game which also saw him spot the 9-letter-word PONDERING, and finished his octochamp run by maxing 10 rounds alongside a third century against another returnee Nanette Swain. This put Tim at the top of the seeding table at the time, but still with just over half the series to still be aired.
