Episode 6160
From Countdown
Revision as of 16:13, 24 June 2015 by The Doctor (talk | contribs) (minor tweaks to impress recapper supremo (aka my notes from the time are rubbish))
Episode 6160 was broadcast on 24 June 2015 as part of Series 73.
Rhys Benjamin played Abby Foulkes, with Rhys Benjamin winning 78 – 59. The Dictionary Corner guest was Colin Murray, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
Strangely, this episode had the same teatime teaser clue for both teasers. There has only ever been one other occurrence of this.
