Chris Waddington first appeared on Countdown toward the end of series 22, beating Karen Willis 56-52 in a closely-contested match. Chris went on to win seven more games to become an octochamp and #1 seed for the series. In the final rounds, Chris beat Philip Griffiths and David Webb before taking on Robert Teuton in the final. The final was nip and tuck all the way, eventually being decided on a crucial conundrum, which Chris unscrambled at the very last second to snatch a 98-90 victory and become the 22nd series champion. Chris returned for Championship of Champions VI, beating Jackie McLeod in the first round and winning a rematch with Robert Teuton on his way to the final against Wayne Summers. This time, it was all done and dusted by the conundrum, with Chris for once emerging on the losing side, going down 79-67. Chris would return to Countdown one last time for the supreme championship, winning his first game against Christine Hunt before being beaten in the second round by another boy wonder in the shape of Andrew Perry.
