Episode 6515

From Countdown

Episode 6515 was broadcast on 8 February 2017, as part of Series 76.

Carl Whitby played Rosie Twells, with Carl Whitby winning 83 – 71. The Dictionary Corner guest was Iwan Thomas, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.

NOTE: In Round 2, Twells was not asked to spell her word; therefore, it is possible that she intended the word TIED rather than TIDE. Similarly, Whitby's Round 13 word may be MOTE rather than MOAT.
