Episode 7804

From Countdown

Episode 7804 was broadcast on 13 July 2022, as part of Series 86.

Edward Byrne played Matt Greer, with Edward Byrne winning 143 – 58. The Dictionary Corner guest was Jenny Ryan, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.

This was the last episode presented by Anne Robinson. However, her retirement was not mentioned during the episode since it was not known that she would be leaving at the time the episode was filmed.

From the following episode, Teatime Teasers would revert from eight to nine letters, and the clock starter button would return.

Notably, Rounds 7 and 8 contained eight identical letters, disregarding their order. But, if Greer had picked a vowel as his last letter in Round 8, they would've been the same.
