Lee Mack was on top form on the ITV favourite in which he was tasked with finding who was the brainiest of his 100 audience members.
Every week, fans see the players whittled down as they fail to advance past the increasingly difficult questions.
This time around was no different at 11 people failed to correctly work out the 70% puzzle."
Reading the question to the audience, Lee asked them: "If you write the words HIGHER and LOWER with alternating letters, what do you get?"
Three possible options with seemingly jumbled-up letters were then presented to the participants.
They were then given 30 seconds to see if they could work out which one of the three answers would be right.
A total of 11 players failed to identify the correct combination with Lee going on to confirm it was in fact answer B.
This is because it took the first letter of higher followed by the first letter of lower and then continued this pattern with the second letter of each word and so on and so forth.
Would you have managed to get it right in the allotted time?
It is just one of many questions that have managed to stump players in recent times with a tough picture question on Coronation Street also leaving players baffled.
The 1% Club leaves 13 players stumped with tricky picture question - but would you have got it right?
Lee asked: "What is the difference between these two images?"
The players were then shown two images of the Corrie pub - but with one major difference.
Lee then went on to reveal that the name on the pub had changed.
He said: "The image on the right shows Ravers instead of Rovers."
