Episode 7595
Episode 7595 was broadcast on 15 September 2021, as part of Series 84.
Mike Lee played Amanda Vince, with Mike Lee winning 107 – 42. The Dictionary Corner guest was Pam Ayres, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
NOTE: Vince's Round 1 offering of retard ☓ (not in the selection) and Lee's Round 4 offering of MORONS were cut from the broadcast due to being seen as potentially offensive. The contestants were simply shown declaring their word lengths followed by immediate cuts to Dictionary Corner, rather than being bleeped or having the removed words being replaced by alternative six-letter words. Additionally, Dictionary Corner were not asked for offerings in Round 4 in the broadcast, so it is possible that they spotted MORONISM.
