Revision as of 16:27, 25 November 2022

Episode 7900 was broadcast on 24 November 2022, as part of Series 86.

Neil Brooks played Bobby James, with Bobby James winning 88 – 45. The Dictionary Corner guest was Christopher Biggins, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.

NOTE 1: In Round 4, James' declaration of TAUNT should have been disallowed as there was only one T in the selection; therefore, the final score should have been 83 – 49.

NOTE 2: James was not asked to spell his word in Round 7 and both homophones are therefore listed here. He was also not asked to spell his word in Round 12, but Dent and Rachel Riley took his declaration as RADICALS rather than RADICLES.
