Episode 7660 was broadcast on 15 December 2021, as the first quarter-final of Series 84.
Ahmed Mohamed played Janet Noe, with Ahmed Mohamed winning 143 – 59. The Dictionary Corner guest was Adrian Chiles, who also stood in as lexicographer while Susie Dent was self-isolating.
NOTE: Both contestants were not asked to spell their word in Round 8 – therefore, they may have intended ROOTING rather than ROUTING.
