Revision as of 17:29, 27 November 2015
Episode 6259 was broadcast on 27 November 2015, as part of Series 73.
James Richards played Indika Sarathchandra, with James Richards winning 104 – 38. The Dictionary Corner guest was Richard Madeley, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
NOTE: In Round 2, Sarathchandra was not asked to spell her word, which was also found by Madeley in Dictionary Corner; therefore, it is possible that either or both of them may have intended the word PEEKING rather than PEAKING.
