Episode 4870 was broadcast on 25 August 2009, as part of Series 61.
Paul Varlaam played Ed Rossiter, with Ed Rossiter winning 105 – 67. The Dictionary Corner guest was Alastair Stewart, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
Notably, Varlaam's offering of BASTARDS in Round 7 was bleeped out, with Rossiter joking that he was glad he did not have to repeat that word. [1]
