Patrick Gibson is one of Britain's leading quiz players, by common consent considered to be the closest rival to Kevin Ashman.[citations needed]

Gibson was born and educated in Ireland but has lived in the United Kingdom for many years, and has represented England in international quiz contests.

In recent years he has become one of the most recognisable faces from British quizzing: on 24 April 2004 he became the fourth player to win the £1m jackpot on the quiz show Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? and in 2005 he was crowned champion of Mastermind: his specialist subjects included Father Ted, the books of Iain M. Banks and the films of Quentin Tarantino.

Despite winning a million pounds, he still works part-time as a software designer for the gambling organisation Tote.
