-Pendleton returned as number 5 seed for the quarter-finals, meaning that he drew fellow octochamp [[Andy McGurn]]. The game was extremely close and the scoreline was dead level going into a crucial [[conundrum]] which neither got right. It was ultimately decided on the sudden death conundrum {{word|ONIONPIGS}}, to which Pendleton buzzed in first, but under pressure offered an eight-letter answer. McGurn correctly found {{word|POISONING}} immediately after Pendleton's blunder, meaning that Pendleton suffered his only ever defeat. He also holds the dubious honour of being the first player to ever guess multiple conundrums incorrectly during the same game (outside of the [[Countdown Masters]]).
