I was just browsing the Countdown wiki and thought I'd see how many people had won at least one episode of Countdown. This led me to teapot owners page which is everyone who's had a teapot in their goodybag, introduced in 1998.
I was quite amazed to see that the current champion is the 1000th winner of a teapot.

This is vaguely interesting and he should be very proud of this milestone acheivement.
