Olav Bjortomt
Stein Olav Bjortomt (born 13 December 1978 in Eastbourne) is an England international quiz player. He was the winner of the inaugural 2003 individual World Quizzing Championships, in the absence of Kevin Ashman when it was a fledgling event with then only 45 participants (now in the thousands). In 2009 he won three out of four possible European titles and was runner-up behind Ashman in the singles to become the most successful participant.
Time Out described him in 2006 as a "former child quiz prodigy and a rising star of the quiz world".
