Episode 1977 was broadcast on 4 April 1997, as part of Series 35.
Julie Tomlinson played Alan Cannon, with Alan Cannon winning 45 – 24. The Dictionary Corner guest was Richard Digance, and the lexicographer was Rob Scriven.
NOTE: Cannon's declaration of ENTRAIL in Round 7 should have been allowed, as it is given in the COD9 as a verb – it is a weaving term meaning to entangle a fold (in other editions of the COD and ODE there was only the plural noun, ENTRAILS) – so the final score should have been 52 – 18.
