'''Episode 4747''' was broadcast on 30 January 2009 as the Grand Final of [[Championship of Champions XIII]].
'''Episode 4802''' was broadcast on 23 April 2009, as part of [[Series 60]].


[[Charlie Reams]] played [[Steve Briers]], with Steve Briers winning 88 - 67. The [[Dictionary Corner]] guest was [[Paul Zenon]], and the [[lexicographer]] was [[Susie Dent]].
[[James Robinson]] played [[Patrick McCurdie]], with Patrick McCurdie winning {{score|87|86}}. The [[Dictionary Corner]] guest was [[Tim Vine]], and the [[lexicographer]] was [[Susie Dent]].
 
Reams started with {{word|LEPTON}} while Briers had {{word|OPULENT}} for seven. Briers maintained this lead until he had {{word|REENACT}} disallowed. Briers then took the lead again, first with {{word|SNOOZED}}, then another seven points when Reams went wrong on the numbers. A seven, a six and a five for both players meant that Reams had to beat Briers on the final numbers game to force a crucial conundrum. However Reams declared nothing, and Briers declared 5 away. Briers had won the tournament, and just the conundrum remained. The conundrum was {{word|ELITEBOUT}}. Briers first buzzed in with {{word|LIBOUETTE}} which was wrong, and then comically Reams buzzed in with {{word|GANDISEEG}}, referring to [[Richard Brittain]]'s guess at the conundrum in the first round.
