Alan Young played Calvin Jones, with Alan Young winning 90 – 45. The Dictionary Corner guest was Noreen Khan, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.

This was a rare Saturday episode, owing to Channel 4 preferring to carry coverage of the death of Queen Elizabeth II on 19 September, and that week's episodes being delayed by a day.
