From Countdown
Revision as of 19:34, 21 August 2021 by TobyMcDonald (talk | contribs)
Episode 2258 was broadcast on 11 May 1998, as part of Series 38.
Stuart McQuitty played Stephen Webber, with Stuart McQuitty winning 49 – 17. The Dictionary Corner guest was Gloria Hunniford, and the lexicographer was Mark Nyman.
NOTE: In Round 3, McQuitty's declaration of tassle ☓ should have been disallowed, as the COD9 only has TASSEL in it, so the final score should have been 43 – 17.
