Episode 103

< Previous | Next >

Episode 103 was broadcast on 26 October 1983, as part of Series 3.

Pat Flowers played William Bradford, with William Bradford winning 53 – 16. The Dictionary Corner guest was Gyles Brandreth, and the lexicographer was Yvonne Warburton.

It appears that three 6's were selected for the Round 4 numbers game; it is likely that one of the 6's was an upside down 9.
