A FORMER Brimpton man was narrowly defeated in the final of the Krypton Factor game show last night (Tuesday).
Software engineer, Ed Brims, had been in the lead going into the last round, having won the gruelling assault course in the fastest time of the series, moving him on to a Krypton Factor score of 20.
However, his three competitors were quicker to the buzzer in the general knowledge round, overtaking the 27-year-old former Oxford University maths student, who finished the show in last place with a Krypton Factor of 19.
