< Previous | Next >

Episode 6249 was broadcast on 13 November 2015, as part of Series 73.

Matthew Tassier played Eoin Jardine, with Matthew Tassier winning 120 – 26. The Dictionary Corner guest was Sherrie Hewson, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.

NOTE: In Round 11, Dictionary Corner did not mention that Jardine's declaration of seated ☓ was invalid as there was only one E in the selection, though it was beaten by Tassier's word anyway.
