Episode C13
Episode C13 was broadcast on 8 January 2020, as part of Celebrity Countdown.
Sabrina Grant played Anna Richardson, with Anna Richardson winning 46 – 28, in a 13-rounder. The Dictionary Corner guest was Rufus Hound, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
NOTE: Grant did solve the conundrum in Round 3 correctly, but was not given points due to taking too much time. Rachel Riley also offered Richardson an explicit choice between the vowel O and the consonant T as her final letter in Round 7. Hound provided the solution to Round 12, though he admitted that "Susie wrote it down and put it in front of me".
