Episode 6853 was broadcast on 22 June 2018, and was the Series 78 grand final.
Zarte Siempre played Philip Aston, with Zarte Siempre winning 128 – 118. The Dictionary Corner guest was Paul Zenon, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
The show's joint score of 246 makes it the highest scoring grand final of a regular series ever to date (disregarding the 30th Birthday Championship miniseries), breaking the former record of 242 set in the grand final of Series 69. Furthermore, not only was Siempre's score of 128 the highest for a regular series grand final at the time (later beaten by Ronan Higginson with 150), Aston's score of 118 is the highest losing score for a grand final as well.
