Revision as of 15:48, 7 August 2021 by TobyMcDonald (talk | contribs)
Episode 5513 was broadcast on 25 June 2012, and was the third quarter-final of Series 66.
Victoria James played Peter Lee, with Peter Lee winning 80 – 73. The Dictionary Corner guest was Dr Phil Hammond, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
The statement "Rachel's met her dream sir" in the clue for the second Teatime Teaser is a reference to Riley's engagement to Jamie Gilbert, which had been announced earlier in Series 66.
