Episode S29 was a special episode broadcast on 16 August 2010.

The match was between Charlie Reams and Junaid Mubeen, two players who have already met twice, in the final of Series 59, and a few weeks later in Championship of Champions XIII. At one win each, this game was the decider. Charlie Reams won 87 – 67. The Dictionary Corner guest was Gary Osborne, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.

In this episode, as with Episode S26, the numbers games were unusual in that Rachel chose the selections and that the large numbers were not the usual ones. They were 12 and 37, which were seen in Episode S26, and the other two were revealed to be 62 and 87.
