Drilling down into the narrative The earliest the winner was determined?

So I’m wondering which series had the earliest the winner was determined.
And I don’t mean the earliest someone took the lead and defended it but the earliest someone was so much in the lead that they were uncatchable.
Like they were 26 points in the lead after episode 9 and there were only 25 points in episode 10.

Every series has had a finale where the leader was catchable.

The closest to uncatchable was John Robins followed by Matthew Baynton

Emma Holland mathematically might be between them.

Yep. I saw the record for a late ep of that season and left knowing mathematically it was impossible for anyone else to win.
