Episode 7655

From Countdown

Episode 7655 was broadcast on 8 December 2021, as part of Series 84.

Janet Noe played Tom Bolland, with Janet Noe winning 96 – 62. The Dictionary Corner guest was Craig Charles, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.

NOTE 1: Noe declared seven in Round 5, but stated she had used a phantom L, without declaring her word.

NOTE 2: In Round 13, Bolland's declaration of CAMMED [1] should have been ruled valid, as CAM could be found as a verb in the free Lexico version of the ODP at the time of recording. Thus, the score should have been 92 – 68.
