Episode 7886

From Countdown

Episode 7886 was broadcast on 4 November 2022, as part of Series 86.

Heather Beadnell played Rob O'Hanrahan, with Rob O'Hanrahan winning 86 – 82. The Dictionary Corner guest was Robert Rinder, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.

This was the last of the five episodes presented by guest host Floella Benjamin.

There were no Teatime Teasers in this episode; clips of Des O'Connor solving a numbers round in Episode 4592, and of Richard Whiteley receiving a leotard reading "King Dick" as a Valentine's Day present from Carol Vorderman in Episode 3644, were instead broadcast before the breaks.
