Episode 7820

Episode 7820 was broadcast on 4 August 2022, as part of Series 86.

This was the first of eight episodes presented by Les Dennis as substitute presenter while Colin Murray was ill with COVID-19. Teatime Teasers also reverted from nine to eight letters.

NOTE: Both contestants were not asked to spell their word in Round 11 – therefore, they may have intended SEWING rather than SOWING.
