Iceland responds as confusing tenable question baffles viewers

Tenable host Warwick Davis left viewers baffled with a rambling and confusing question.

ITV' s Tenable sees contestants try and guess as many answers out of 10 correctly as possible in order to win a cash prize every day. Among yesterday's players was Zoe who appeared to get the short straw and pulled a question no one seems to understand.

Reading the question, Warwick said: "The 10 frozen vegetable after broccoli sold at Iceland." Zoe was unable to hide the confused expression on her face as she looked up at the board in dismay. Appearing to understand her confusion, Warwick said: "Let me clarify this for you."

"We are looking for the 10 vegetables that come after broccoli, alphabetically, which are sold separately at Iceland as part of their own brand range. There are no potato products on our list."

Warwick went on to explain that the question was formed from information on the Iceland website. Zoe and her team weren't the only ones confused and the clip went viral when it was posted on Twitter by a Tenable fan who said it left him in "total hysterics".

Comedian Greg James reposted the video and said: "THERE ARE NO POTATO PRODUCTS ON OUR LIST". Iceland itself responded to the long-winded explanation with: "OK – even WE don't understand this question..."

Another Twitter user added: "He should have been clearer that 'some items may appear in this list which are not in a scientific sense vegetables.'"

Another viewer said: "There is no scientific sense of the word vegetable. Basically means 'a savoury part of a plant you eat'. But can be defined differently."

However, many viewers saw the amusing side rather than getting bogged down in the argument. One said: "This is really funny, but I can’t help thinking how much funnier it’d be if her first guess was potatoes."

In a follow-up comment to the viral post, the answers were revealed to be carrot, cauliflower, green bean, mushroom, onion, pea, pepper, spinach, sweetcorn.
