Leo Smith in Series 82.

Leo Smith was an octochamp in Series 82. He's a Pest Controller from London. He has qualified to return for the series finals.

Smith first appeared on 23 November against 6-time winner and usually dominant player in the form of previous Series 61 contestant Martyn Simpson. Smith proved to be Simpson's toughest opponent, beating him in the first numbers round to take the lead. However, Simpson risked POLEWARD in round 7 to take the lead by one point, and later extended his lead in round 11 before Smith clawed back in round 12. Smith finally unseated Simpson on a crucial conundrum to win his first game. Smith continued a very solid run of performances, including spots of nine-letter words such as ORIENTALS and COLOURIZE, solving six conundrums and achieving seven centuries. Smith wrapped up with a total of 869 points to place 3rd in the seed table.
