Episode 6620 was broadcast on 10 July 2017, as part of Series 77.
Tom Chafer-Cook played Barry Taylor, with Tom Chafer-Cook winning 98 – 17. The Dictionary Corner guest was Suzannah Lipscomb, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
NOTE: In Round 5, Taylor was not asked to spell his word; therefore, he may have intended the word GAIT rather than GATE.
