A couple playing Ant and Dec’s Limitless Win game this weekend are on course to win the biggest cash prize ever on British TV – if they can just bank the money.
Daily Star can reveal mother and son team Tracey-Jane and Troy Beaumont reach the highest ever position on the show’s money ladder, climbing to more than £1 million.
The pair from Liverpool – who are Doctor Who superfans – also get a good luck message from David Tennant on the show before answering a series of questions.

But in this nail-biting end to the second series, viewers will find out on Saturday (February 4) night what happens next and if they become millionaires.
Dec said: “We got very giddy as we’ve never been that far up the ladder before. The excitement and atmosphere in the studio was electric.”
Ant adds: “It’s one hell of a watch and you should all tune in to see exactly what happens.”
Troy, 23, and mum Tracey-Jane, 58, went on the show hoping to win enough for a trip to America.
They tell hosts Ant and Dec they’re not just mother and son but also are best friends.
Troy said: “We’re basically the same person apart from age and gender.”
Tracey added: “We love living together.”
On the ITV show the pair take on numerical questions about sports, TV and film , chips and home appliances.
The previous highest amount won on the show was £500,000 in series one.
This series has seen best friends Conall and Michael from Belfast winning £150,000, married couple Crish and Karthy from London going home with £100,000 and Jenny and Clive – from Leeds – who were getting married the following day, crashing out of the game with nothing.
In the quiz, pairs of contestants answer questions and climb up the world’s first never-ending money ladder.
They answer numerical questions and are only able to bank cash with each correct answer.
In order to remain in the game they are not allowed to answer with a number over the correct answer, or run out of lives.
Contestants lose lives if they submit a number lower than the correct answer, with the amount of lives taken off being the difference between their answer and the correct one.
