Episode 7424 was broadcast on 18 January 2021, as part of Series 83.
Darren Phipps-Walker played Matthew Chivers, with Matthew Chivers winning 70 – 66. The presenter was Colin Murray, the Dictionary Corner guest was Richard Arnold, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
In Round 5, Dent did not pluralise HYALINE, despite their being a permissable noun variant in the OED. Despite this, Murray appeared to say HYALINES - perhaps inadvertently - when Dent had finished.
Round 6's solution was offered by Murray.
In Round 10, for unknown reasons, Chivers was asked to declare his word first despite declaring a longer word than Phipps-Walker. Additionally, Arnold also incorrectly stated that DECAMP was a 7, when it was actually a 6.
