'''Alan Sinclair''' first appeared on Countdown on 29 July 1996, defeating [[Peter Cottee]] 49-36 in the 21st heat of [[series 32]]. he won 3 more games in impressive fashion before losing 45-28 to [[Craig Douglas]]. Alan's 4 wins were enough to see him return for the finals as #3 seed, where he beat [[David Ligat]] in the quarter-finals and 'took revenge' on [[Craig Douglas]] in the semi-finals, beating him 55-39. In the [[episode 1847|final]], Alan took on [[Dennis Fearon]], and after a close-run affair, it came to a [[crucial conundrum]], with Dennis leading 73-68. It all looked over for Alan as LOSTAGAIN was uncovered and dennis buzzed in on 3.5 seconds, but his answer of NOSTALGIC was incorrect, the clock was restarted and almost immediately Alan buzzed in to give the correct answer of NOSTALGIA, snatching the win and becoming the 32nd champion of Countdown in the process. Alan returned the very next week for [[Championship of Champions VIII]], but was defeated in the first round by eventual winner [[Chris Rogers]].
