Episode 152 was broadcast on 3 May 1984, as part of Series 4.
Stuart Schofield played Robert Richland, with Robert Richland winning 75 – 70. The Dictionary Corner guest was Gyles Brandreth, and the lexicographer was Julia Swannell.
Schofield's 70 points was the joint highest ever losing score in a 9-round game, tied with Steve Williams' in Episode 817. The contestants' combined score of 145 points was also the highest 9-round joint score if the joint score of 150 in the aforementioned episode is discounted on account of the fact it required a tiebreak conundrum to be achieved, as well as Episode Cats9, which required a conundrum worth 100 points to obtain its record joint score of 153.
This is also the first time on record that both contestants declared a nine-letter word in the first round.
