Hi guys, Bryan here, former contestant who played over Halloween. Like I'm sure many of the contestants (hey Kat!) do I became a bit addicted to this forum while my run was on and just wanted to drop in and say hi. It's really interesting to read your guys take on games and I will try to contribute myself from time to time, although due to work I am very much a More4 man! Also thanks to everyone who commented on my game. (can't believe there is no bearded smiley faces!)

Hi Bryan and welcome to the forums. You contributed a great deal to the show while you were on the wings, so congratulations to you on your win.

Pleasure to see you on here; you were an enormously valuable contestant, I think the wings are a bit lost without you now! Super result too from that board.

welcome halloween bryan-great to have u on here-i was really rooting for u-
u gave some very sensible advice and came over as a very likeable and confident contestant!.
as ur irish i thought u would like a cyber guinness-lol.cheers bryan.garry aka 'hevelius'.

Welcome to the forums Bryan!

I missed your game on Friday, but catched the last ten minutes on ilovedealornodeal.co.uk - congratulations on winning £17,000 and beating the Banker!

Thanks for the kind words guys. Particularly like the cyber Guiness Garry!

Hey Bryan. I don't know if you remember me from the studios but I have just one question for you. Beard or no beard?

Hey Al, remeber you well. A stats man that would put me to shame! You had a few fans amongst the contestants! Hope all is well with you. And to answer your question, Beard of course!

I had fans amongst the contestants? What, really?!

(Who'd have thought blathering into a microphone about tedious probabilities would do anything except make a person less popular...?)

Hi Bryan

I'm a fellow More 4 (and occasional 4oD) watcher. Well done on your game and the advice you gave. Will this do?

Love the bearded smiley, cheers Simon.

Al, trust me, if there is one place were "blathering into a microphone about tedious probabilities" is very much appreciated it's in the dream factory!

I might have to put that quote into my signature.

Hey Bryan, I enjoyed your game immensely. Conrats on the big win in fact you are deserved of a rare Mr B dance

Great to see you on here Bryan, was looking forward to your game a lot. Your advice on the wings was very good during your time there, well done on your win as well you deserve it!

You don't know how jealous I am of Mister Al for doing that (although I really hate the sound of my voice on camera so I probably would never have the nerve to speak up if by some chance I had the chance to) but you never know.

Hi Bryan...lovely to see you. I must say you look so much better without the beard x

Well, it's not as though I've ever gone out of my way to be featured! Both in Therese's game and in the Irish games I saw, it was always other people who specifically wanted to get me involved.

I realise that. Anyone who tried to get on TV on purpose most likely wouldn't make the edit.

Welcome to the forum bryan and well done for winning £17k
