Episode 6005

From Countdown

Episode 6005 was broadcast on 6 October 2014, as part of Series 71.

Ellen Baker played Vicki Landriau, with Vicki Landriau winning 107 – 50. The Dictionary Corner guest was Tony Jacklin, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.

NOTE 2: Dictionary Corner suggested ROGUE as a five in Round 7, but it was not available here as there was no E in the selection.
