Chris Colsmann was the runner-up of Series 30 and a participant in Championship of Champions VIII.
A 17-year old bank clerk, he beat Maggie Desogus in his first appearance by virtue of a sudden-death conundrum, and won a further three games before losing at the hands of Kate Leckie. Colsmann returned for the final stages as No. 8 seed, but that didn't stop him as he comfortably beat No. 1 seed Graham Cross in the quarter-finals and Martin Linden in the semi-finals to set up a rare grand final occurrence of No. 7 vs No. 8 seed against Verity Joubert. Colsmann was outclassed by Joubert, in large part due to offering three words not in the dictionary, and had to settle for second-best.
Colsmann returned for Championship of Champions VIII, but was beaten in the first round by Kenneth Michie.
