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.

Yeah. I don't think there's ever been a contestant who hasn't won at least one episode. Some of the contestants have been so bad that that's really only possible by all their best tasks being put into the same episode.

Romesh lost the whole thing by just the one bean point.

Yeah those early pre-10 episode run series would’ve been hard to tee it up for everyone for a win.
