From Countdown
Episode 7169 was broadcast on 25 September 2019, as part of Series 81.
Andy Evans played David Lee, with Andy Evans winning 112 – 50. The Dictionary Corner guest was Nina Hossain, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
NOTE: Lee was not asked to spell his word in Round 4 and may have intended the word BARES rather than BEARS. Nick Hewer also incorrectly announced the score as 58 – 20 after Round 8.
