-[[Maria Frizelle]] played [[John Dickinson]], with Maria Frizelle winning {{score|65|64}}. The [[Dictionary Corner]] guest was [[Suzi Perry]], and the [[lexicographer]] was [[Susie Dent]]. NB: In Round 7, Susie Dent incorrectly stated that John's word for that round, MODIST, was the US spelling, and that the British spelling must have an E at the end. It is in fact the other way round, meaning Susie was wrong in this instance, and both spellings are valid on Lexplorer. John lost out on six points, while Maria gained five she was not entitled to. Controversially, this cost him the game. The true score was in fact 70-60 to John.
