A Tipping Point contestant risked it all by accepting host Ben Shephard's offer of a trade in the final round of the ITV show. The daytime show, which has been running repeats this week, saw budding quizzer Carol fight to win £10,000 after a "cruel" final round. This particular episode of the ITV programme was first broadcast in 2021.
After seeing off competition from her three other contestants, Carol's final battle with the machine was far from plain sailing. Viewers were on the edge of their seats as Carol attempted to win the jackpot. Carol told Ben that being on a quiz show was on her bucket list, along with “starting to grow old disgracefully” and planning a trip to Colorado, USA.
Keen to fulfil her dreams of jetting off Stateside, Carol got to work by planting the jackpot counter in drop zone three. Little did she know, the round was to be "one of the most tense" in Tipping Point history, according to Ben.
