Revision as of 15:08, 9 April 2020 by Launchballer (talk | contribs) (→Rounds: I'm going to split episodes critically affected by administrative errors.)
Episode 5091 was broadcast on 11 August 2010, as part of Series 63.
Tom Rowell played Andrew Mossford, with Tom Rowell winning 92 – 88. The Dictionary Corner guest was William Roache, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
NOTE: In round 3, Rowell's declaration of SAUTEE should have been disallowed as it isn't in the dictionary, so Mossford should have won the match 88 – 86. As a result, he was invited back to the show in the following series.
