Episode 5513

From Countdown

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.
