Congratulations to Harry Savage (KES 12-17) who is currently the champion of Series 88 (aired from July to December 2023) of the well-known and popular Channel 4 TV show, Countdown. He appeared 11 times in total, playing 8 preliminary games in August and returning for the series finals in December. He scored a massive 130 points during his final preliminary game spotting obscure words such as radiomen and caponier. We hope to see Harry invited back for a Countdown champion-of-champions tournament in a couple of years’ time. Elsewhere, Harry is currently reading Biology at Hertford College, Oxford where he is in his 4th year studying fossil corals as part of his Master’s project.
