Episode 2125 was broadcast on 29 October 1997, as part of Series 37.

Brett Smitheram played Alan Cameron, with Alan Cameron winning 45 – 44. The Dictionary Corner guest was Angela Rippon, and the lexicographer was Anna Eaton.

A memorable out-take on this show, shown on A Tribute to Countdown: 3000 and Counting, showed Cameron exclaiming “well, bugger me” when Whiteley announced he had the chance of points in Round 4 when declaring 864.
