IT was meant to go down in TV history as John Humphrys’ last hurrah as Mastermind host. Instead, it will be remembered as the night a young Glaswegian stunned the UK with an accent that made Bertie Wooster sound like Rab C. In another, more significant achievement, Jonathan Gibson, a 24-year-old studying for a PhD in Modern History at St Andrews, was crowned the youngest ever Mastermind champion in the quiz show’s 49-year-run. In a short introductory film before he took his place in the famous black chair, Mr Gibson explained: “I was born and brought up in Glasgow despite the evidence of my very confusing accent. No-one in my family understands why I speak like this.

We caught up with former Arkansas football player Johnny Gibson to check on his transition into the working world with Waffle House.
How did playing football at the U of A help you in your current role with Waffle House?
Playing football for the University of Arkansas taught me more each year but one word that stuck out to me was, discipline. Learning from Coach Herb about being disciplined on your time and how you work has definitely helped me during my time with Waffle House. He would always tell us to show up 15 minutes early for anything we had planned. Football also taught me to learn each role before taking on being a leader. Follower first, leader second. Learning about how to do something before being the teacher of it will only make you better and more respected.
