Jerry Humphreys was a contestant in Series 49.

He faced John Davies in John's 8th game, but put up a good fight against the 7-time winner. After both players spotted DELATIONS, they went into the conundrum 93 – 93. However it was John that spotted the conundrum ABDUCTING in less than two seconds to become an octochamp.
