Difficult question on The 1% Club knocks out a whopping 14 players - but can YOU solve it?
A difficult question on The 1% Club knocked out a whopping 14 players - but can you solve it?
Saturday's instalment of the ITV quiz show, hosted by Lee Mack, saw 100 contestants attempt to win a huge cash prize.
As always, the programme's questions were put to the public, with the percentage who got it right determining the difficulty of each round.
Aptly, the final question is one that just 1 per cent of the public answered correctly.
But, during the episode, it was the 30% question that tripped up several players.

It read: 'Jamil is writing a limerick but needs a word that follows these rules to complete the last line...
'Two syllables, only two different vowels, starts with an even -numbered letter and contains at least three letters from the second half of the alphabet. Which of these words would work?'
Players had to choose between Doggie, Blades, Hotel, Prizes and Rabbit.
After 30 seconds, it was revealed 14 contestants got the answer wrong and were wiped out from the game.
The correct answer was Prizes.
During the same instalment, one contestant, Neil, opened up about his career after he was knocked out of the game during the 40% question.
He revealed he was a 'professional archer' and had been teaching the sport for 'about 24 years'.
Lee asked: 'Do you teach a level, Olympics or something?
Neil explained he taught a range 'from novice up to famous people'.
He admitted: 'I've taught Brad Pitt's kids.'
'What was he like, Brad Pitt?' Lee asked.
Neil then went on to make a shocking confession about the American film star and producer.
He revealed: 'He was very tall, he was a bit smelly at the time, I must admit.'
'Wow, most people end those anecdotes with, "What a lovely man",' Lee quipped. 'How was he? He was quite tall and smelly to be honest with you.'
It isn't the first time people have commented on Brad's smell.
Last year, Canadian actor Jason Priestley recalled how he used live with Brad.
According to Entertainment Weekly, he said on Live With Kelly And Mark: 'Brad wasn't as bad as my other roommate, who was an absolute disaster, but Brad was okay.'
He revealed: 'He was very tall, he was a bit smelly at the time, I must admit.' 'Wow, most people end those anecdotes with, "What a lovely man",' Lee quipped
He added: 'We used to play this game, all of us, to see who could go the longest without showering. I think about it now, I'm like "Dude, how disgusting! What were you thinking?"'
The star revealed Brad would go the longest without showering and often won the contest.
'I don't think he does that anymore, but back then, he could go a long time without showering,' he said.

Cheltenham boy's storytelling method helps others with literacy
A mother and son's storytelling ritual is helping to transform how children learn to write and express themselves through their own 11-year-old son Gabriel, from Cheltenham, would tell her his story aloud as she took notes and it was later turned into a book - called The Adventures of Gabriel. The framework they used was trademarked as said Gabriel is "proud" of how StoryQuest has since been inspiring others and hearing how they have been "slaying UFO's and beating dragons" in their own Hirst, a teacher at Dixon Manningham Primary School, in Bradford, said it has given his pupils, who often struggle with writing, "joy". StoryQuest is described as a therapeutic storytelling tool where the child relays a narrative, normally based on a hero, to someone who then actualises it into a fully formed implemented in schools, pupils share their story ideas with their class and write them down on a specialised Hirst said the method allowed his Year Six students to just focus on "enjoying using their imaginations"."We sometimes forget about writing for pleasure and what that can do for our kids," he said."A lot of boys and girls have a fear of the blank page, you can do all of the teaching - but they sort of shut down when asked to write a story."[So] it was a really lovely experience to see them really joyful, talking about their stories - they loved it."Mr Hirst has now built the method into his curriculum to be used every year. Kate described her role in her son's storytelling as like being her son's "ghost writer"."He just began narrating and I scribbled notes and asked him to tell me more," she added."I then read it back to him and he would feedback his edits."It all got put into a word document and I showed it to Gabriel and he said 'it's a book. Mummy it's a real book'." Since developing the method, Kate said it had been exciting to see how StoryQuest has been supporting pupils in building their confidence, emotional literacy, and writing skills."Gabriel is most proud of how his book and StoryQuest is inspiring other children," she said. "He's enjoying other children collectively taking on literacy and writing for each other."Kate and Gabriel now work together leading sessions with learning groups and pupils across the UK on how to use their StoryQuest method.
