Steven Etherington in Series 85.

Steven Etherington was a contestant in Series 85 and 86. He was a Warehouse Operative from Skelmersdale, but originally from Liverpool.

Etherington appeared in the last six heats of Series 85 before it broke off for the finals and returned for his seventh game in the first edition of Series 86, which he also won, but missed out on becoming an octochamp the following day after a narrow defeat to Daren Barnes. With 7 wins under his belt, Etherington eventually qualified for the series finals as No. 7 in December 2022, although his preliminary run total of points remains unknown due to his sixth game not airing.

In the second quarter-final match of the series on 16 December, Etherington was eliminated by No. 2 seed Edward Byrne, with Ed pulling out spots such as VERITY in Round 5 and ALLSPICE in Round 13, although Steven did take some points off Ed with WHALES in Round 10. This left Etherington with a known total of 689 points, excluding his unaired sixth game, and meant both his losses were to Octochamps.

Etherington is the son of two-time contestant Peter Etherington, and both appeared on the first series of Fifteen to One; Steven also applied for another Anne Robinson-fronted quiz show, The Weakest Link, but did not get beyond the audition process.
