Ant and Dec branded their contestant a “mad woman” – after she shoved her mum out of the way on Limitless Win.
The lovable geordie TV duo have graced screens with their latest TV show – Limitless Win – claiming that they could “bankrupt” ITV with the potential for huge cash prizes.
However, things turned tense on the gameshow during Friday night’s episode (January 29) – when one desperate player pushed her mum out of the way so that she could secure her answer.
Sarah and her mother Fiona appeared in the studio – and it’s fair to say Sarah got stuck into the action.
They were asked the question: “What is the highest number used in a standard sudoku puzzle?”
The pair had just selected their answer but hadn’t locked it in, and were still deliberating.
Sarah suddenly pushed her mum away so that she could press the button before Fiona had a chance to finish her sentence.
Ant and Dec were taken aback by Sarah’s panicked move, and they jumped excitedly into the air, shouting: “Woah! Woah!”
A flabbergasted Dec asked Sarah: “What are you doing you mad woman?! You just went in for it!”
Sarah replied: “I said to mum, ‘You’ve got to hold me back because, when there’s a button in front of me, I am going for it.'”
“I didn’t realise quite how much, she literally pushed me out the way then,”
Even mum Fiona looked shocked by her daughter’s dramatic move caught on camera, and she said: “I have a feeling I’m not going to be needed…”
Dec mentioned Sarah being “confident” in her answer, but the studio erupted in laughter when she admitted: “No!”
Dec declared: “This is either going to be the best game we’ve ever played, or it’s going to be over very, very quickly.”
Despite their rocky start though, the duo were delighted when they went on to bag a massive £30k win at the end of the show.
