Judith Young

Judith in her QF episode

Judith Young was a contestant in Series 53, scoring 707 points on her way to becoming an octochamp. An 82-56 victory on 21st January 2005 was enough to end the run of Brian Roles, with steady scoring enough to ensure her quarter final berth as the #6 seed.

Judith met Jon O'Neill in the third quarter final, in a game due to be broadcast on 27th June 2005, however due to the death of Richard Whiteley the previous day, the recording was broadcast on the 28th. Jon ran out the winner, in a game notable for the complete inability of anyone in the studio to unscramble IRONCASTS on the conundrum.
