David Roe was a quarter-finalist in Series 44, and a octochamp in Series 90. He was a Chartered Accountant from Colne, Lancashire, and has now qualified for the end-of-series finals in December for a second time.

Appearances

Series 44

David first appeared in June 2001, in the tail-end of the show's 44th series, first winning against John Hedges, following up with four additional wins before ultimately losing to Bruno Murray in a close 49-41 contest, after failing to crack the crucial conundrum IFUSECOAT. His performance was enough to warrant a place in the quarter-finals as the #6 seed, in which he was matched up against #3 seed, Stuart Wood, but was defeated 60-36, and Wood ultimately went on to win the series.

Series 90

More than two decades later, Roe returned to the show, facing Nigel Hutchinson, where he achieved a comfortable 22-point victory to take home a second teapot, despite being beaten to the buzzer in the conundrum. He then worked his way through seven more victories to reach his Octochamp tally of eight, with four centuries along the way, and guaranteed his return for the December finals through a dispatch of Hiral Varia in a very closely fought seventh game. He showed his skill and willingness to take risks in the numbers rounds; always picking 6S, 3L or 4L, and finished with a points tally of 809 as the provisional 3rd seed for the finals.

Co-events

In 2010, he attended his first Co-event, COLIN 2010.
