Tipping Point new rules explained as ITV confirms why the format has changed

Those tuning into ITV's Tipping Point this week might have noticed a big change to the quiz show's format. The popular daytime programme, which is fronted by Ben Shephard, has had a shake-up.

Tipping Point sees contestants take on an old-school coin machine in the hopes of winning big money. With multiple rounds, contestants must answer questions correctly in order to drop a coin and if it falls successfully, their cash prize rises.

This week, however, instead of four players taking on the extraordinary machine, just three have been going head-to-head in the hopes of winning a cash jackpot. With fewer players, there has also been a change to the second round, with contestants getting 45 seconds instead of 30.
