Episode 6499 was broadcast on 17 January 2017, as part of Series 76.
Suzy Turner played Ian Cockerill, with Ian Cockerill winning 59 – 57. The Dictionary Corner guest was Gyles Brandreth, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
Turner's Round 13 offering of templated ☓ has the dubious distinction of being disallowed for three reasons: it is not listed in the dictionary, it is not in the selection, and she had declared it as an eight.
