Episode 6655 was broadcast on 30 August 2017, as part of Series 77.
David McGaw played Gabriel Odia, with David McGaw winning 101 – 67. The Dictionary Corner guest was Mark Pougatch, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
NOTE: In her Round 6 solution, Rachel Riley did not explicitly show how she had made her final multiplier of 4; however, it was clearly implied to have been made via 6 − 2, using the only two remaining starting numbers.
