Hosted by Ben Shephard, Tipping Point challenges contestants with general knowledge questions and each right answer turns on an arcade-style machine. The contestants get a choice to drop tokens down four chutes in order to knock piles of tokens off a moving shelf.
The more tokens collected, the greater the prize fund. The player with the least amount of points is eliminated and the last one standing competes for the £10,000 jackpot.
During an episode on Tuesday May 24, viewers saw a new set of contestants step up with the hopes of walking away with the £10,000 grand prize. Freya and Rob finish the first round with £500 each, while third contestant Alex was left behind with £0.

However, many viewers were taken back with Freya talking over host Shephard and the other contestants, and failing to keep quiet during the show.
@Animalbonkers tweeted: "#tippingpoint who's the host?? Freya ? Or Ben ? I wish the contestants would keep quiet", while fellow Twitter user @TruckerTimmy75 tweeted: "Freya is one of those “screamers” isn’t she. #TippingPoint"
The frustration with Freya continued with @CarlManc76 tweeting: "Freya is so annoying. #tippingpoint", while @CornHoleDavis tweeted: "Freya would commentate on someone reading a book in a library #tippingpoint"
@arthursummersel tweeted: "Wonder if Freya is this animated at everything? #tippingpoint"
One viewer disagreed and defended Freya, @David_M_02 said "Everyone mentioning the talking that’s going on. The contestants are told to talk more so stop blaming them! Blame the producers!! #tippingpoint"
Another viewer also seemed unbothered by Freya, @Will_Templar said "I like Freya ngl #tippingpoint"
One viewer went as far as naming a hashtag after Freya, @_Rowan_Wallace tweeted: "#tippingpoint Freya is doing amazing #justucforfreya"
Alex gave a better performance in the second round and even won an electric stand mixer. However, he didn't score enough and was eliminated leaving Rob and Freya in the competition.
The third round was intense as Freya and Rob gave it their best shot but luck wasn't on Freya's side this evening and she lost to Rob, who had secured £1750 before heading into the final.
Again, viewers flooded Twitter with their thoughts. @BenBissett8 tweeted: "Freya is out. HALLELUJAH!!! #tippingpoint"
Another viewer also seemed relieved. @arthursummersel tweeted: "Bye Freya. Life will be much quieter #tippingpoint"
Rob, the winner of tonight's episode left the competition with £1850 and a hot tub, sadly he didn't have enough right answers for the dream £10,000 prize.
History was made in Tipping Point last year when two doubles dropped for player Maria, who needed a staggering 29 counters over the tipping point in order to secure a place in the endgame. With the two doubles, Maria got £1800 points and beat a fellow contestant for the £10,000 jackpot challenge.
