Episode 8190 was broadcast on 19 January 2024, as part of Series 89.
Mark Finnerty played Kevin Cornell, with Mark Finnerty winning 105 – 53. The Dictionary Corner guest was Prue Leith, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
NOTE: Cornell was not asked to spell his word in Round 12 – therefore, he may have intended FEINT rather than FAINT.
