Seán Dennehy played Tony Moore, with Tony Moore winning 97 – 63. The Dictionary Corner guest was Jamelia, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
NOTE: Dennehy's disallowed offering of COZIES is in fact valid under Countdown rules, as it is specifically a North American term for insulating sleeves used to keep canned or bottled drinks cold, and not just the US English spelling of COSY. Therefore, the score should have finished 69 – 92.
