Tipping Point returned to our screens on Monday afternoon with a brand-new episode and fans were quickly distracted by contestant Robyn.
Host Ben Shephard welcomed four contestants to the famous ITV studio as they battled it out to win the highly sought after cash prizes.
Howard, Robyn, Paul and Fran answered a series of questions to win turns on an arcade-style machine.
Dropping tokens down a choice of four chutes, they each hoped to knock piles of the counters off a moving shelf – the more they collected, the greater the prize fund.
Contestant Robyn caught the attention of viewers at the top of the show with her neck tattoo and bright pink hair.
Taking to Twitter, one fan gushed: “Robyn is looking very beautiful with those lovely tattoos.”
Another added: “Robyn is really well mannered. A credit to herself, and her parents.”
A third person posted: “Robyn is beautiful young lady.”
While a fourth viewer said: “I love Robyn’s hair.”
Robyn made it through to the penultimate round of the competition but unfortunately lost the extremely close head-to-head against Howard.
There was just £50 between the two players and viewers were shocked when Robyn didn’t make it through to the final.
One fan tweeted: “Robyn was robbed!!!”
Another moaned: “Oh nooo, Robyn!”
A third person wrote: “I’m available for consoling Robyn, should you need it.”
Howard managed to get the special star counter over the tipping point, meaning he’d be walking away from the show with the £10,000 jackpot.
The excited player later explained that he’d be spending his money on a luxury safari trip to Africa.
“I love that machine,” Howard said after watching the gold counter fall off the edge.
Ben told Howard: “I think the machine loves you as well.”
Good Morning Britain host Ben, 46, logged into his Twitter account last week to inform fans about the new series.
