Episode 7613

< Previous | Next >

Episode 7613 was broadcast on 11 October 2021, as part of Series 84.

Oliver Bisset played Matt Watts, with Matt Watts winning 86 – 51. The Dictionary Corner guest was Keith Allen, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.

Once again, Channel 4's technical problems continued and the episode carried no subtitles. For unknown reasons, the teatime teasers once again switched to being 8 letters long.
