Episode 5299 was broadcast on 4 July 2011, as part of Series 65.
Gareth Lee played Declan Hayes, with Gareth Lee winning 85 – 47. The Dictionary Corner guest was Robin Cousins, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
NOTE: In Round 3, Lee's declaration of distill ☓ should have been disallowed, as it is only in the ODE3 with one L. Therefore, the final score should have been 78 – 47.
Notably, the selection in Round 1 was identical (disregarding its order) to that in the immediately preceding letters selection, in Round 13 of the previous game.
