Revision as of 15:19, 4 September 2020

Episode 3876 was broadcast on 22 February 2005, as part of Series 53.

John Mayhew played Cliff Pettifor, with John Mayhew winning 118 – 42. The Dictionary Corner guest was Geoffrey Durham, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.

NOTE: Mayhew's declaration of ZANDERS in round 9, should have been disallowed as the plural of ZANDER is ZANDER, so the final score should have been 111 – 42. Perhaps strangely, his declaration of ZANDERS was featured on his "best bits" after the grand final.
