Episode 25 was broadcast on 14 December 1982, as part of Series 1.
Jane McLeman played Maurice Daniels, with the game ending in a 41-all draw. The Dictionary Corner guest was Kenneth Williams.
For reasons unknown, the conundrum scramble remained unrevealed until the clock had already been ticking for 5 seconds.
