Tipping Point was back on our screens on Monday for this week's first instalment of the popular ITV quiz show.
As ever, Ben Shephard hosted as four contestants joined him in the studio. Pete, Genevieve, Joe and Barbara were hoping to win some cash as they went up against the arcade-style machine.
The aim of the game is to answer general knowledge questions correctly to win coins which you can then use on the Tipping Point machine. Contestants then drop the coins into the machine to knock counters off the shelf and potentially win thousands of pounds at the end of the game.

A recent format change saw the number of players reduced from four to three, however today's episode included four contestants as it was a repeat. Barbara and Pete were knocked out, leaving Joe and Genevieve to battle it out.
And it was Joe's answer to one question that left Ben Shephard cringeing. Joe was asked which Cornwall town was bought by xxx
Joe admitted he had no idea. He said: "I've not got the foggiest, I've never been to Cornwall. I know it's down south, somewhere". Unable to pass, Joe answered: "The London Eye. That's my equivalent of a pass".
Ben was aghast and told Joe he had "embarrassed himself". Fortunately for Joe, he was later passed a question from Genevieve.
After being asked the question, about an historic American president, Ben told Joe it was his chance to restore faith in him and act "as a beacon" to the nation. After Joe correctly answered "Abraham Lincoln", Ben was so pleased he ran over and hugged him.
