From Countdown
Revision as of 10:25, 15 May 2026 by DaaniyalAli (talk | contribs)
Episode 7190 was broadcast on 24 October 2019, as part of Series 81.
John Osmond played Ben Pooley, with John Osmond winning 109 – 24. The Dictionary Corner guest was Levi Roots, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
Notably, this was the first episode for two things: when Dent wore glasses on-screen (and has eventually remained in use as of nowadays), and when Rachel Riley appeared pregnant on-screen.
