Tipping Point fans floored as player gives hilarious wrong answer

Tipping Point fans were floored after a contestant gave a hysterical wrong answer to an easy question.

Don was the player to make the hilarious mistake during Monday’s repeated episode of the ITV show.

Presenter Ben Shephard asked him to “name the animal which precedes ‘chestnut’ in the name of a tree which produces conkers”.

Don replied with “chestnut”, getting the question incorrect as the answer Ben was looking or was “horse”.

Viewers found his answer hilarious, and flooded Twitter with comments after the mistake.

One said: “The well known Chestnut Chestnut tree.”

While another wrote: “Chestnut chestnut, so good they named it twice.”

A third added: “Which animal and he says Chestnut?”

“Chestnut is a f***ing animal, Donald?!”, tweeted a fourth.

A contestant named Bethany made it through to the final round, and she told Ben she was playing to win money to go towards her wedding.

She was so close to getting the jackpot, but decided to take the money rather than the trade.

Bethany took home an amazing £2800, which is definitely a staggering sum to add to her wedding fund.

This week marks the final week of repeated episodes, as presenter Ben has been filming the new series which is set to start later this year.

Earlier this month Ben announced he was taking a break from hosting Good Morning Britain to film the brand new season of the television competition.

On his last GMB show, Kate told viewers: “This is Ben’s last day.”

Turning to Ben, she said: “You’re going and having a bit of time off aren’t you?”

Shephard replied: “I’m not having any time off at all – it’s peak Tipping Point season!

“We’re getting back in the studio all socially distanced but we’ve got the set changed to get it all up and running.

“So I’m not going to be here but I am going to be working…”

Tipping Point airs weekdays at 4pm on ITV.
