AI-generated editorial illustration created for FM Coaching. This generic trophy and stage do not depict the PCA British Finals, a real award, a competitor or Telford International Centre.

Update: 21 October update: added eight PCA-caption-supported outcomes, including Josh Bogdani, Devon Eleanor and Jonathan Griffiths; five of these are Sunday lower placings. Added selected Sunday independent results, two overall titles and 12 reported Sunday new-Pro awards. Devon Eleanor’s award now has official caption support. Updated Eva Nkemdirim’s reported name and flagged Masters age-group, Pro Masters placing and name-spelling conflicts. Original publication date preserved.

PCA British Finals 2026 — Latest Winners and Placings

Telford International Centre · 17–18 October 2026.
Latest results check: (UK time).

This update adds Josh Bogdani's Junior Bodybuilding Tall title and five Sunday placings from PCA announcement captions, alongside further independent reporting. FrontDouble reports Sam Udall as the Bodybuilding overall winner and Valentina Ecclestone as Figure overall winner. Devon Eleanor's Bikini Short title and new-Pro award now have PCA caption support. Disputed age groups and placings are flagged below.

How these results were checked: PCA announcement captions were readable in search results, although the full Facebook posts could not be opened. Those limited official announcements are identified separately from FrontDouble's independent reporting. This is a sourced results update, not a complete official score sheet.

PCA British Finals 2026 — Sunday 18 October Results

Official PCA announcements — checked through indexed captions. Each linked caption identifies the Telford event on 18 October 2026 and the competitor and title shown below. Full posts and a complete 2026 results sheet were not accessible; no lower placings or new Pro Cards have been inferred.

The official-caption table preserves PCA's own available names and labels. FrontDouble now supplies the independently reported names Jacob Tipper, James McDermott and Rebecca Sheppard, and identifies Valentina Ecclestone's Figure results. These details are attributed separately below. Ian Flynn's age group is disputed: the PCA caption says 50+, while FrontDouble reports 55+. Gary Chappell's PCA caption says Masters 50+ without expanding the discipline. No age group has been silently reassigned.

Additional Sunday placings from PCA announcements

These five placements have event-specific official caption support. Each caption identifies the Telford competition on 18 October; the full Facebook posts remain inaccessible.

Further Sunday results — independent reporting

FrontDouble’s day-two report, published on 20 October, supplies the additional names and placings below. They are reported results, not an independently inspected official score sheet. Only the specified places are shown; a missing position must not be inferred.

Name check: FrontDouble spells its Pro Figure runner-up “Monique Coleman”; a PCA entry announcement uses “Monique Collman”. The spelling is retained as reported pending clarification. A pre-event entry announcement does not itself verify a placing.

A professional class victory and a new Pro Card are different outcomes. New-Pro reporting is separated below.

PCA British Finals 2026 — Saturday 17 October Results

Saturday winners named in official PCA announcements

The following titles are supported by indexed captions from PCA's official posts for 17 October 2026. The same access limitation applies as for Sunday: the captions were readable in search results, but full posts were unavailable. Any explicit new-Pro awards are recorded separately in the Pro Card section.

The latest PCA-caption additions are Devon Eleanor in Bikini Short and Jonathan Griffiths in Disability. Earlier confirmed additions include Victoria Honan in Bikini Masters 45+, Danielle Lloyd in Bikini Trained and Danielle Cooper in Masters 40+. The available caption does not specify Danielle Cooper's discipline. PCA uses @jj_gramms and @emilyconroyfitness in two announcements; those handles are retained as published, alongside the names separately reported by FrontDouble below. These tables should not be added together as a count of unique athletes.

Independently reported Saturday results

The existing results below are sourced to FrontDouble. Where a winner also appears in the official-announcement table above, that title now has PCA caption corroboration. Other rows remain independently reported. Incomplete names and the unresolved overall-title discrepancy are retained; this is not a complete official score sheet.

Overall British Champions

The following overall outcomes appear in FrontDouble’s Saturday and Sunday reports. An overall title is distinct from winning a height class, receiving a Pro Card or winning an existing professional division.

Overall champions — independent reporting
Title as reportedCompetitorStatus and source
Men’s Physique overallJJ GramsIndependently reported — FrontDouble

Bodybuilding overall — SundaySam UdallIndependently reported — FrontDouble day two
Figure overall — SundayValentina EcclestoneIndependently reported — FrontDouble day two

Clarification outstanding: FrontDouble now names Eva Nkemdirim in the rows previously identifying @naijaa_doll, but still labels her outcomes Wellness Short and Bikini Overall. The conflicting division/title combination remains unresolved. Sunday overall announcements for Brian Ward and @valentina_ecclestone are preserved above with their exact available PCA labels; the separate day-two report identifies Valentina Ecclestone's Figure overall title.

PCA British Finals 2026 — Pro Card Winners

New-Pro awards stated by PCA

These five official indexed captions explicitly announce a new professional award at the Telford event on 17 October. They are stronger evidence of a new Pro Card than a caption naming an existing professional class winner. Full-post access remains unavailable.

The handles are reproduced exactly; no missing full names or unspecified disciplines have been supplied. The official and independently reported tables can overlap, so they are not a total count of unique Pro Card recipients.

Previously reported Pro Card recipients

The nine names below were already published from FrontDouble’s explicit new-Pro annotations. Ant Porter’s and Devon Eleanor’s awards also have official PCA caption corroboration. The other named rows remain attributed to FrontDouble; separate PCA announcements using handles are shown above. Winning an existing professional division alone does not establish a new Pro Card.

FrontDouble explicitly marks these competitors as new PCA professionals. This is secondary reporting of an award, not official PCA confirmation. The list overlaps the winners above and must not be added to other tables to create a competitor total.

Results Still Awaiting Confirmation

  • A complete official 2026 score sheet, remaining class results and lower placings.
  • Official corroboration of Sunday new-Pro claims and other awards still attributed only to FrontDouble.
  • Unresolved full names and class labels, including Cameron’s surname, @andy_asb_coaching, Jessy Payne’s Masters 35+ division and Danielle Cooper’s Masters 40+ discipline.
  • The Wellness Short / Bikini Overall title discrepancy attached to Eva Nkemdirim in the Saturday independent report.

Source disagreements being kept visible

Masters age groups: PCA’s Ian Flynn caption says Masters Bodybuilding 50+, whereas FrontDouble lists 55+. A PCA caption for Rocco Sestito also says 50+ and second place; the independent report lists Roccobos under 55+. These records are not merged or assigned a corrected age group without clearer evidence.

Pro Masters Bodybuilding: separate PCA captions describe both Carlos Moral and Craig Madden as second. FrontDouble reports Craig second and Carlos third. Their podium order is therefore withheld from the confirmed table. Brian Ward’s previously verified title remains intact.

Wayne Angus’s Classic Tall win and new-Pro award are now included as independently reported by FrontDouble. The earlier abbreviated PCA caption alone was not sufficient to establish both claims. Gaps, ambiguous class labels and conflicting announcements are not filled by assumption.

PCA British Finals 2026: confirmed event details

  • Event: PCA British Finals & Expo
  • Dates: 17–18 October 2026
  • Venue: Telford International Centre
  • Address: International Way, Telford, TF3 4JH
  • Organiser: Physical Culture Association (PCA)
  • Entry: Listed as invite only on PCA's UK shows page

These details are taken from the PCA British Finals page, the official event listing and the PCA UK competition calendar. The published event window is not a guaranteed finishing time for any individual class.

The Telford weekend in context

PCA's published programme brings several physique disciplines together across two days. Its inclusion of Mixed Disability alongside the fitness classes, followed by bodybuilding and figure, is a useful starting point when locating a particular result. The verified programme supports that broad overview; it does not establish who won or how close a contest was.

FM Coaching has not attended this event or interviewed competitors for this report. We are therefore not describing crowd reactions, judging decisions, athlete condition or competition highlights that we cannot substantiate.

Keep the Telford and Bradford results separate

The PCA event in Telford is a separate competition from the Bradford British International Finals and 1 Bro Pro Show covered elsewhere on this website. For that event, see our Bradford bodybuilding results and official IFBB Pro League placings. For the wider calendar, read our UK bodybuilding finals weekend coverage.

The shared “British Finals” wording is not a reason to combine the results. Always match the organiser, venue, date and division before attributing a title to an athlete.

Sources and Verification

  • Individual official PCA Facebook announcements are linked beside the relevant Saturday and Sunday outcomes. The previous caption checks from 20 October are retained, with the new linked outcomes checked on 21 October 2026; full Facebook posts could not be opened.
  • PCA official website and British Finals event information — organiser, dates, venue and class-day programme.
  • PCA results archive — still headed British Finals Results 2016 when checked; it is not evidence for these 2026 results.
  • FrontDouble: PCA British Championships 2026 — Day 1 — the readable independent Saturday report, including explicit new-Pro annotations. Its updated Eva Nkemdirim naming is now reflected. Award claims without the official corroboration identified above remain independently reported.
  • FrontDouble: PCA British Championships 2026 — Day 2 — published 20 October; Sunday names, selected placings, overall titles and new-Pro annotations checked on 21 October. The age-group and Pro Masters conflicts are disclosed above.

Evidence labels: “Official PCA announcement” means the named result is supported by an indexed caption from PCA's own account. It does not mean a complete score sheet or full post was inspected. “Independently reported” identifies secondary reporting without established PCA corroboration. “Awaiting confirmation” means the available evidence is insufficient. Captions or snippets from unrelated recommended posts are not treated as results evidence.

FM Coaching did not attend the event or interview competitors for this report. No missing names, placings or awards have been inferred. The original publication date remains unchanged; this update does not restart the article's Google News sitemap eligibility window.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who won the PCA British Finals 2026?

PCA captions support 19 Sunday winning titles, including Josh Bogdani in Junior Bodybuilding Tall, plus five additional Sunday placings. FrontDouble reports Sam Udall as Bodybuilding overall champion and Valentina Ecclestone as Figure overall champion. Saturday results are retained. Each table distinguishes its evidence; this is not a complete official score sheet.

What supports the Sunday bodybuilding and figure winners?

The named Sunday titles are supported by captions from PCA’s own Facebook posts that were readable in search results. The full posts could not be opened, so this access limitation is disclosed and the claims are restricted to the names and titles visible in those captions.

Who received PCA Pro Cards?

Five PCA captions explicitly announce new-Pro awards: Ant Porter, Danielle Cooper, @jj_gramms, @emilyconroyfitness and Devon Eleanor. Sunday award reporting has been added separately from FrontDouble, with official corroboration still outstanding. The tables overlap and are not a combined recipient count.

When and where were the finals?

PCA lists the British Finals & Expo at Telford International Centre on 17–18 October 2026, with fitness and physique groups on Saturday and bodybuilding and figure on Sunday.

Why are some names or divisions incomplete?

The accessible report leaves some names or labels unresolved. We retain those gaps rather than assume an athlete’s surname or assign a different category.

Is this the Bradford bodybuilding event?

No. The PCA Telford finals and the Bradford British International Finals / 1 Bro Pro Show are separate competitions. Results must not be mixed between them.
