'''Episode 6706''' was broadcast on 9 November 2017, as part of [[Series 77]].

[[James Riddell]] played [[William Thomson]], with James Riddell winning {{score|94|43}}. The [[Dictionary Corner]] guest was [[Margaret Mountford]], and the [[lexicographer]] was [[Susie Dent]].

NOTE: In Round 11, Dictionary Corner did not note that Thomson's offering of {{word|RADAR}} was invalid, as there was only one {{word|A}} in the selection. However, this proved irrelevant as Riddell offered a longer word anyway.
