Revision as of 15:15, 19 June 2011

Episode 116 was broadcast on 17 November 1983, as part of Series 3.

David Hughes played Mark Nyman, with Mark Nyman winning 57 - 40. The Dictionary Corner guest was William Rushton, and the lexicographer was Yvonne Warburton.

NOTE: BRUMMIE was originally disallowed. It is unclear whether this was rectified at the end of this programme (with the score thus remaining at 33 - 57) or at the start of the next one.
