Michael Wareham

Michael Wareham was a contestant in series 19, first appearing on 2 March 1990, beating Robert Endeacott 58-45. Michael won 3 more games before falling at the hands of Sylvia Roche 55-34. Michael's 4 wins were enough to earn him the #3 seed spot for the final rounds, where he beat Mark Cooper and Elaine Newcombe on his way to the final against Gino Corr. The final was neck-and-neck after the first conundrum, but three disallowed words from Gino allowed Michael to edge ahead, running out the 92-68 winner and champion of series 19. Michael returned in 1991 for Championship of Champions V, but lost to Lawrence Pearse in the first round. Five years later he returned again for the supreme championship, but lost again in the first round, this time to Allan Saldanha.
