Giles "The Typhoon" Hutchings was an octochamp in Series 68. He is also an Apterite and member of c4countdown.

His total of 965 points from his 8 preliminary games is the highest in the history of the show.

Nick Hewer has referred to Giles as "The Typhoon" or "The Kid" at various times during the introductions or the games, in a similar way to potential series rival Andy Platt sometimes being called "Formidable".

He made his CO-event debut at CO:REA 2012 in April 2012, and then returned for CO:REA 2013. He got to the final and was beaten by the Series 65 semi-finalist, Mark Deeks by 97 – 91. He also appeared at CobliviLon.
