Episode 1619 was broadcast on 14 February 1995, as part of Series 29.
Darren Povey played Hazel Hendy, with Darren Povey winning 47 – 35. The Dictionary Corner guest was Jan Harvey, and the lexicographer was Ruth Killick.
The solution to Round 8 was given by Richard Whiteley, so the contestants' solutions weren't actually revealed due to the obviousness of the round. However, it can be assumed they were identical.
