Episode 6954

From Countdown

Episode 6954 was broadcast on 16 November 2018, as part of Series 79.

Rod Jermy played Paul Copeland, with Paul Copeland winning 63 – 39. The Dictionary Corner guest was Dr Phil Hammond, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.

NOTE: In Round 5, Jermy was not asked to spell his word; therefore, he may have intended the word BRAKES rather than BREAKS.
