Revision as of 20:23, 13 August 2021 by TobyMcDonald (talk | contribs)
Episode 1233 was broadcast on 17 February 1992, as part of Series 23.
Phil Jordan played Alan Roberts, with Phil Jordan winning 37 – 24. The Dictionary Corner guest was Jan Harvey, and the lexicographer was Richard Samson.
NOTE: Roberts' declaration of purlined ☓ in Round 5 should have been disallowed, as it is not explicitly mentioned in the COD8, so the final score should have been 43 – 16.
