From Countdown
Revision as of 21:50, 24 June 2012 by JRTerrier24 (talk | contribs)

Episode 4424 was broadcast on 27 August 2007, as part of Series 57.

Grant Woods played Jeffrey Hansford, with Jeffrey Hansford winning 96 – 79. The Dictionary Corner guest was Ken Bruce, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.

In a rare error, the second teatime teaser (SEAHORSE) is not a valid word – the dictionary gives it only as SEA HORSE.
