David Stainer
Despite his relative youth, this trainee solicitor has more notches on his quiz post than most of the other hopefuls in this contest. He's got £64,000 on Millionaire, 15-to-1 and University Challenge finals, and four Countdown wins to brag about. Not that he lets it go to his head. He admits knowledge deficits in classical music, religion and food & drink, offset by mastery of pop music, geography and politics. Could go far.
