Revision as of 18:56, 11 October 2022

Episode 4877 was broadcast on 3 September 2009, as part of Series 61.

Chris Davies played Ross Mackenzie, with Chris Davies winning 139 – 89. The Dictionary Corner guest was Paul Zenon, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.

Davies' score of 139 was, at the time, the second highest score ever. It is now the fourth highest in the old 15-round format.

Strangely, this episode had the same Teatime Teaser clue for both teasers. There have only ever been four other occurrences of this, in Episode 6160 and Episode 7868, and when this episode’s own Teasers were reused in Episode 6196 and Episode 7519.

This episode was repeated on 4 August 2010.
