Episode 6815 was broadcast on 30 April 2018, as part of Series 78.
Toby McDonald played Maxim Hall, with Toby McDonald winning 108 – 68. The Dictionary Corner guest was Chris Packham, and the lexicographer was Susie Dent.
NOTE: The score at the end of Round 8 was incorrectly displayed as 56 – 41 (i.e. Identical to that of Round 7), and as an indirect result led to Nick Hewer announcing that result.
