Tipping Point fans were left baffled on Friday after contestant Ashleigh failed to correctly answer a question about herself.
During the latest episode of the hit ITV quiz show, host Ben Shephard asked the hopeful Asleigh “Which sign of the zodiac takes its name from the Latin for ram?”
Despite being on a roll with questions up until that point in the show and making the final two, Ashleigh looked baffled before telling host Ben she had no idea.
The contestant then made the decision to pass over the question to her rival Jeff and risked him getting the all important counters to put into the machine.
Ashleigh admitted she had no idea of the answer
Sadly for her, Jeff’s eyes lit up and he admitted he thought he knew the idea.
Jeff told Ben he thought he knew the answer was Aries as he is also an Aries.
Before revealing the answer the Good Morning Britain regular turned to Ashleigh to see if it rang any bells with her.
Laughing, she admitted that she still had no idea but it would be awkward if it is correct as she is also a Aries zodiac sign.
Ben was shocked Ashleigh didn’t have any idea
Ben confirmed that Jeff was correct and joked that it was even more annoying for Ashleigh due to her link to the answer.
The moment didn’t go amiss with Tipping Point viewers either who flocked to social media to express their shock at Ashleigh not knowing.
Taking to Twitter, one fan wrote: “Tipping Point wow … she didn’t even know the creature of her birth sign.”
Jeff ended up taking home the £10K Jackpot
Another added: “F***’s sake, Ashleigh. It is your own birth sign but you couldn’t guess that the ram was significant?”
“Why is Ashleigh treating this as the world’s most difficult question? #TippingPoint,” a third questioned.
Meanwhile, a fourth added: “I don’t think she understood the question to be fair #TippingPoint.”
A fifth hit out: “Imagine not knowing your own birth sign #tippingpoint.”
Thanks to his quick answers and impressive general knowledge, it was Jeff who made it through to the final.
During the all important final few questions, Jeff managed to tip the jackpot counter over the edge meaning he went home with a massive £10,000.
Beaming away, the star was left speechless as Ben congratulated him on his bumper win.
