Sam Cappleman-Lynes was a contestant in Series 82. He is a software developer from Rochdale. He is also an Apterite.
Sam made his debut on 26 August 2020 against two-time winner Pete Reynolds, where a spot of the nine-letter word LONICERAS helped Sam win with an impressive 114 points to Reynolds' 33. The following day, Sam reduced multiple gameshow contestant Bernie Kingston to the lowest ever score in a 15-round game with just 5 points.
On Apterous, as well as having already achieved a Top 10 position in the Pro Ranks[1], Sam has also won a game of 'Apto Fifteen to One', hosted and written by Philip Aston.[2]
Outside of Countdown, Sam is an active member of the world of competitive puzzles. In 2018, he won the UK Sudoku Championships on his first attempt, followed by a runner-up finish in the same event the following year. He also came 40th in the 2019 World Sudoku Championships in Germany.
