Tipping Point viewers were left fuming after a bad actor exposed the winner of the game show online during a repeat episode.
As fans took to Twitter to enjoy the ITV show together, one mean viewer left fans up in arms when they announced the winner’s name just a few minutes into the episode.
Causing a stir amongst viewers, one fan tweeted: “Old episode Ruth wins sorry #TippingPoint.”
Angry viewers were quick to express their frustration at the shocking post, with one clapping back: “Why would you do that and ruin it for the rest of us?”
Fans were left fuming that the episode was another repeat rather than a newly aired game, with one writing: “Bloody repeat again!”
“Noooo it’s a repeat!! And why does it always start so early?” someone else posted.
The viewer’s tweet turned out to be accurate, with Ruth beating fellow contestants Roger, Claire and Alex to the final round.
Roger, a murder mystery novelist from Southampton got the boot first after he was unable to score a single drop with his counters. Excited student Alex from Liverpool trailed behind and saw the exit next leaving Claire and Ruth.
Ruth, a regional administrator from London sailed through to the final after winning a whopping £3750.
When asked what she would so with her winnings she told viewers she’d love to pay for her daughter’s wedding and plan a trip to her dream location of Alaska
Ruth was unable to snag the £10k prize pot but left with a generous £4400.
As ITV continues to air repeat episodes, fans have seen a slew of familiar faces return to their TV screens.
Last week delighted fans saw the return of “hot” contestant Kirsty.
In a nostalgic rerun dating back to 2019, fans were thrilled to welcome back the gorgeous contestant, dubbing the sexy Scottish babe “stunning” and “gorgeous” and showered her with love on social media
One said: “I’ve seen her before! It’s that gorgeous Scottish lass! #TippingPoint,” gushed one viewer followed by love heart emojis.
While another Twitter user wrote: “I remember Kirsty. How could I forget what a stunner #TippingPoint”, with a heart-eyes emoji.
A third added: “Don’t usually like re-runs but if Kirsty is making an appearance I’ll stick around.”
The old episode also sparked confusion amongst fans as player Rosie’s mystery prize saw her win a 3 day beach weekend at a luxury location – far better than today’s prizes which see fans winning the likes of a snowball machine and a nice dinner.
“Quite a good mystery prize on this old episode. Far better than the rubbish they win now!” blasted one viewer.
