Who Wants To Be A Millionaire contestant explains bittersweet feeling of being on the show after family heartbreak

A contestant on the latest episode of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, which aired on Saturday, September 24 at 9.30pm, has tugged at the heartstrings of ITV's viewers as she explained who her intended 'phone a friend' contact was due to be in planning for her appearance on the show.

The children and family worker, originally from Tipperary who now lives in Buckinghamshire, told the show's host, Jeremy Clarkson - who took over from Chris Tarrant in 2018 - upon bagging the sum of £1000 with a question on where Loch Lomand is located, that her grandmother was going to be the one who she would call should she wish to use the lifeline 'phone a friend'.
