Trevor Montague


Trevor Howard Montague is a British author who compiles books of facts. Best known for A to Z of Almost Everything, he has since compiled A to Z of Sport, A to Z of Britain And Ireland and A to Z of British Popular Culture. He is also a prolific game show contestant, with victories in Today's the Day and Fifteen to One, although the latter victory resulted in legal action as Montague was ineligible to win. Montague founded the British Quiz Association in 2001.
Trevor Montague first appeared on Fifteen to One in 1990 and was quickly eliminated. In 1992 he entered again under a false name, Steve Romana, and wearing a disguise, in clear breach of the show's rules. Montague's eligibility was only called into question after a viewer spotted him during a rerun of the show on Challenge. A judge found the case proved against Montague and awarded damages. He made an appearance on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? in 2005, where he won £1,000 after getting the £32,000 question wrong by going with 72% of the studio audience.
