A Question of Genius - Winner!

I came back and managed to win the top prize and a place in the final! I must say that I rode my luck and, on another day Matt could have beaten me in the final 'A Question of Strategy'. Anyway, it was a fantastic experience and I get another go in the final, to be shown on April 17th!
A man who's just won £5000!!
It was a thoroughly enjoyable time and my fellow contestants were great - I'd like to have spent more time with them, but I was flown home straight after the show - no time to have a night on the town with them in Glasgow (shame)!
