Tipping Point contestant makes blunder with 'Sauchiehall Street' answer

A Tipping Point contestant amazed viewers across Scotland when she made a shocking blunder.

Lorraine was on the popular ITV quiz show on Tuesday night when she was asked by host Ben Shephard, "in which Scottish city you would find the famous Sauchiehall Street?"

We've no doubt Glasgow viewers were all confident Lorraine had this one in the bag, with Sauchiehall Street being arguably our city's most famous street.

So imagine our surprise when she promptly replied "Edinburgh".

Still, despite the surprising slip-up, Lorraine made it through to the next round of the quiz show with fellow contestant Jim but was put out before the final round with £1,300 in the bank. Unfortunately, she didn't go home with the cash, finishing as the runner-up.

Her fellow contestant Jim later added another 12 counters, leaving him uncatchable. He then took his spot in the final and went home with £3,100.

The new series of the Tipping Point airs on weekdays at 4pm on STV, followed by The Chase.
