Episode 1466 was broadcast on 13 January 1994, as part of Series 27.
Mark Williams played Paul Henderson, with Mark Williams winning 52 – 47. The Dictionary Corner guest was David Jacobs, and the lexicographer was Ruth Killick.
NOTE: In Round 5, Williams had the illegal word WRACKED allowed, although it isn't to be found in the dictionary. So, the final score should've been 47 – 45 in Henderson's favour. Henderson was given another chance in the next series.
