Episode 6347

From Countdown

Episode 6347 was broadcast on 19 April 2016, as part of Series 74.

Ann Dibben played Neville Spiers, with Ann Dibben winning 112 – 63. The Dictionary Corner guest was Dave Myers, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.

An audio recording of part of Round 5 was later used on BBC Radio 1's Innuendo Bingo two days later on 21 April when Rachel Riley came to play with the blooper being Ann's declaration of FANNIES and Nick suggesting if there was any word that could beat it.
