Just before round 5, a Christmas quiz took place, hosted by Christopher Biggins, and Richardson & Ryan's team won, so as their prize, they got a bonus 5 points.

The match saw Sean Lock, with the assistance of Johnny Vegas, winning by 34 – 33 in an 7-rounder, thanks to the conundrum for this episode being worth 13 points, instead of the usual 10.

Rachel Riley was, as ever, the arithmetician. The Dictionary Corner guest was David O'Doherty, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
