Episode 729 was broadcast on 10 May 1988, as part of Series 15.
Dave Clapham played Rose Meyer, with Dave Clapham winning 48 - 45. The Dictionary Corner guest was Derek Nimmo, and the lexicographer was Della Thompson.
NOTE: Meyer's declaration of SEWINGS in round 5 was wrongly disallowed, meaning she would have won the match, if the points had been included.
