Episode 1522 was broadcast on 1 April 1994, and was the Series 27 grand final.

David Elias played Richard Campbell, with David Elias winning 68 – 55. The Dictionary Corner guests were Martin Jarvis and Rosalind Ayres, and the lexicographer was Richard Samson.

On the second conundrum, Elias shouted out balletage ☓ without buzzing in, just as the clock music ended, which was also incorrect.
