October Grand Prix Results

[Chris]

All of the October UK Quest Grand Prix scores are in are now online (link at the foot of this piece).
Everyone here at Quizzing Towers – and no doubt most of our 164 participants today, if not all of them – thank Rob Hannah for another great set of questions. It is apparent from the scores that his quiz was certainly an accessible one, with over a quarter of the field through the 100-points-barrier and a median score of 88.4 overall.

We heartily congratulate Didier Bruyère who has once more topped the field, with a massive score of 141.4. Runner up was Pat Gibson (138.7), Mark Grant was third (131.5), with Scott Dawson (131.2) and Kevin Ashman (130.6) completing the top five.
