Episode 6287 was broadcast on 15 January 2016, and was the second quarter-final of Championship of Champions XIV.
Andy Platt played Dylan Taylor, with Dylan Taylor winning 127 – 125. The Dictionary Corner guest was John Inverdale, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
This episode is notable for two reasons:
- Platt and Taylor's joint score of 252 points was the highest achieved in the new 15-round format at the time, beating 248 just 11 days earlier. It was beaten with 272 on 17 January 2019. It remains the second-highest ever achieved in the new 15-round format as well as the third-highest full stop.
- Platt's losing score of 125 was the highest of all time, beating the prior record (jointly held by Matthew Shore and Chris Davies) by a full eight points.
This episode was repeated on 10 July 2020.
