Lingo

Dean, Johnny, Bev, Tony, Aaron and Joe compete to work out the words hidden in the Lingo grids and Puzzlewords. Each episode sees the six contestants tackling the puzzles under live time pressure. The series is presented by Adil Ray.

The show is a single episode of a word‑based game programme that brings together a small group of contestants under the guidance of a presenter. In this instalment, the participants are set to tackle a series of linguistic puzzles while the host steers the action. Viewers get a quick glimpse of the competitive spirit as the players line up for their turns. The competing players are Dean, Johnny, Bev, Tony, Aaron and Joe. Each of them joins the round with the aim of deciphering the hidden terms that populate the Lingo grids and the Puzzlewords segment. Their efforts are focused on spotting the correct words among the scrambled letters displayed on the board. The core of the episode revolves around solving these word challenges. Contestants must scan the Lingo grids for possible entries and then cross‑reference them with the clues provided in the Puzzlewords. Success depends on recognising patterns, making logical connections and, ultimately, naming the exact words that fit each grid slot. Adil Ray serves as the programme’s host, introducing each round and keeping the pace lively. He presents the puzzles, checks the answers and provides the necessary prompts to move the game forward. His role ties the various segments together, ensuring the contestants stay on track as they hunt for the correct vocabulary.
