Charlie Harrison was a contestant in Series 93. At the time of filming, he was a second-year mathematics undergraduate student at Emmanuel College, Cambridge but is originally from Sunderland. He is also an Apterite who has spent considerable time in the Top 20 in the Pro-Ranks and made his co-event debut at Co:London 2026, finishing 18th out of 56 participants. He is additionally a competitive Rubik's Cube solver, who has competed frequently against fellow Countdowner Harry Savage.
Appearances
Series 93 heat games
On his first show, and after a shaky introduction where he actually fell behind in Round 1, he eventually showcased his significant Apterous credentials by scoring 138, due in no small spot through his spotting of three nines: VALORISED, REFLATION and TIMECARDS. This left Harrison with the highest debut total of the series so far, and he capped off his triumph with a speedy conundrum solve as part of a highly impressive start. His fourth win, which saw him max 13 rounds for the second time in a row, officially confirmed his qualification for the end-of-series finals later in June.
