Revision as of 18:42, 30 August 2023 by TobyMcDonald (talk | contribs)
Episode 8093 was broadcast on 29 August 2023, as part of Series 88.
Rachel Copley played Sandy Macdonald, with Rachel Copley winning 73 – 49. The Dictionary Corner guest was Ardal O'Hanlon, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
The solution for 858 in Round 3 was given by O'Hanlon.
NOTE: Macdonald was not asked to spell his word in Round 10 and both homophones are therefore listed here.
