Episode 7183

From Countdown

Episode 7183 was broadcast on 15 October 2019, as part of Series 81.

Pierse Walsh played Phil O'Reilly, with Pierse Walsh winning 75 – 67. The Dictionary Corner guest was Jeremy Thompson, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.

NOTE: O'Reilly's Round 12 offering of greeds ☓ is actually invalid due to GREED being listed as a mass noun in the ODO. Though Dictionary Corner mistakenly allowed it, it did not affect the outcome of the round.
