Tipping Point viewers have said they would like to see a shake-up when it comes to the drop zones.
The series – which is hosted by Ben Shephard – sees contestants answering questions to win counters, which are then inserted into a huge arcade-style coin pushing machine.
The machine currently has four drop zones, but eagle-eyed fans claim they’ve worked out that the counters fare better in just two of the zones.
Some have now suggested that hopefuls on the game show only use the two better zones.
The idea came up on Twitter during Wednesday’s instalment of the much loved ITV show.
“Always put the jackpot counter down 1 or 4,” one fan suggested, adding: “Then you don’t have this b******* about having to change zones.”
Another tweeted: “Have these people never watched before. You should choose Z1 or 4.”
When it went wrong for one contestant, a viewer tweeted: “That’s why you don’t pick 2 or 3, can get pushed into other zones easily.”
“And this is the reason 1 and 4 are the preferable zones,” said another.
One posted: “Never ever drop the jackpot counter in 2 or 3, always 1 or 4…..”
One fan had another idea for a shake up, posting: “Why can’t we have a new format where you can save your counters and put two in at once? Asking for a friend.”
The episode saw contestant Emelia beating her opponents to take a run at the big money.
She proved to be popular with viewers, although a couple of people took issue with her interrupting Ben with an answer before he’d finished reading the question on more than one occasion.
One slip saw her answer “Paris” instead of “France” because she hadn’t listened to the end.
After it happened the first time, one viewer tweeted: “You could’ve at least waited for Ben to finish the question, Emelia.”
“Listen to the full question,” suggested another.
When she got answer wrong, a fan posted: “No Emilia, that wasn’t unlucky, your timing was CRAP!”
