Today's contestant, Judy Lewis raised £1000 for the NHS last year by doing Nine Hundred Squats (NHS) for 72 days, (the number of years of the NHS). It's very admirable, but I couldn't help thinking she could have just done 72 squats for 72 days and raised just as much!

Couple of errors:
Round 1: BOOMER was offered by Dictionary Corner, but there was only one O in the selection;
Round 4: WILCOS was offered by Dictionary Corner, but this is invalid as WILCO is only an exclamation; it is not given in ODO as a noun nor a verb (unlike EUREKA(S), which explicitly gives an instance as a noun in the Premium version).
