Episode 1131 was broadcast on 28 March 1991, and was the second semi-final of Series 21.

Gillian Tickle played Barry Grossman, with Barry Grossman winning 59 – 44. The Dictionary Corner guest was Brian Johnston, and the lexicographer was Richard Samson.

NOTE: Barry's declaration of OUTDATE in Round 3 should have been disallowed as the COD8 only lists OUTDATED, as opposed to OUTDATE. The final score should therefore have been 52 – 44.
