James Hurrell
James Hurrell was a finalist in Series 57. He started his run in Series 56, winning five games before he was stopped by the Series quarter-finals. He racked up a score of 838 and returned for the finals as #2 seed behind Craig Beevers who scored 907 points. There he lost to seven-time winner Steve Baines on the crucial conundrum BOULEVARD, which gave Steve exactly 100 points.
He returned for the Championship of Champions XIII and faced the unbeaten David O'Donnell in the first round. It was Jeff Stelling and Rachel Riley's first ever game, and they performed well taking the game to a crucial conundrum.
