Tipping Point viewers crack up over contestant's mayonnaise answer

A mayonnaise slip-up got the better of a Tipping Point contestant as neither fans nor players could stop laughing.

Ben Shephard welcomed another round of players today ready to take on the Tipping Point machine. Nearing the end of round one, contestant Rick was left red-faced after his quick off-the-mark response sent the other plays into fits of laughter.

The question said: "Mayo is the Spanish word for which month of the year?" Confident in his speedy response, Rick said: "March."

After Ben declared the answer as May, the other players shared a few giggles as they revelled in what everyone thought was a straightforward question but Rick managed to take the jokes on the chin as he too joined in with the silliness.

Fans also didn't let him away with the answer as they were quick to join in on the hilarity. Multiple comments surfaced online consisting entirely of laughing emojis, crying faces and the words "March" or "Mayo".

Another viewer added: "Mayo is the Spanish word for which month of the year? #TippingPoint. Dear readers, he guessed March."

A final comment said, "March-O," accompanied by a string of crying laughing emojis.

Rick's quick off the mark responses got the better of him as he answered wrong twice due to not listening to the entire question. He said farewell to Ben and the others in round two.
