@@pauljohnleadbeater5533 David Lee was, but in his heat. He would win his group final and grand final. Additional fun facts: Katy Thompson was the last female contender to reach the final, every one after that including the 2009 and 10 reboot would have all male finals. Also of all finalists in KF history, Duncan worked the hardest to get there, he was the best runner up in both his heat and group final (both on tie break losses) and it took an off screen play off to get him to the final. Easily one of the most if not the most deserved winner.

Now that I'm looking at Gordon Burns here, he looks almost like Rebel's Ezra Levant without his glasses on.

Think david lee of 1988 was originally a runner up too who went on to win. The performance by duncan was astonishing going from last to winner. Goes to show with any game show there are twists and turns along the way and this was one of em. :D

David was also the youngest person to win The Krypton Factor as he was 21 years of age when he won.

Allen Jeremy david was not only a deserving winner, also a nice guy as well. However he couldn't compete against alison heath and marian chanter who were the top two of 1987 which was a shame, then again marian chanter was physically fit and hard to beat as well.

The first round of each episode the mental agility is a killer. I'd have no chance of that.

Always enjoyed watching this, the remake that ITV did recently was ok but was too short, had adverts in between and waisted time with that "activate the cube" nonsense

This is the only gameshow i ever liked, and watched. Today all game shows are absurd moron rubbish, but i found this show when i was growing up, quite good for game shows. Most of the time game shows are brian dead garbage.

@@sillygoose635 the cube is very hard and very modern day krypton factor like. The only subtle difference with the cube is you have to work for money, for the krypton factor you don't.

When have they ever given 3 people 10 points!! Bollocks!!!! Rubbish observation tests! Better when they ask questions... and judge on the fastest time if they get the same amount! Really unfair to give 3 people 10 points!!
