Eddie Andersson played Andy Wedlake, with Andy Wedlake winning 79 – 68. The Dictionary Corner guest was Clive Anderson, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.

NOTE: In Round 12, Andersson's invalid declaration of based ☓ was not spotted by Dictionary Corner. However, this would not have affected the outcome of the game as Wedlake provided a longer declaration.
