Revision as of 16:31, 8 May 2025 by DaaniyalAli (talk | contribs)
Episode 6867 was broadcast on 16 July 2018, as part of Series 79.
Sarah Harper played John Mason, with John Mason winning 80 – 60. The Dictionary Corner guest was Anita Rani, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
NOTE: In Round 10, Mason was not asked to spell his word; therefore, he may have intended the word MEETS rather than MEATS.
