Watch as legendary sitcom star is left stumped by tricky Celebrity Catchphrase puzzles – could you solve them?

A BELOVED sitcom star was left stumped by challenging Celebrity Catchphrase puzzles - but could you work them out? Although contestants must "say what they see" on the ITV game show - this is not always easy. 4 4 Stephen Mulhern welcomed Dianne Buswell, Ria Hebden and Neil Morrissey to the studio. Men Behaving Badly star Neil, 63, reached the Super Catchphrase round, with £4,500. The star faced some difficulty as he made his way up the money pyramid. One riddle showed a woman cutting open a pastry, with three fish emerging from it. Neil guessed "fish cake", but later learned the answer was actually "fish pie". Another puzzle featured the show's Mr. Chips character standing on weighing scales. The words "Weight Mate Meeting" were on a blackboard, while he held a fork and a plate with staples on it. Neil tried to suss it out and guessed "staple gun" before deciding to pass. The correct answer was later revealed to be "staple diet". He also reached the prestigious number 11 Catchphrase - but had only three seconds to decipher it. Watch moment Celebrity Catchphrase star Lesley Garrett fails to double her money on tricky riddle The riddle showed a split-screen of two figures of the word HARD. One of them was sat behind a desk in an office and while the other in was in a garden. Neil took a quick guess with "hard copy", which was soon revealed to be incorrect. Afterwards, Stephen informed him that the right answer was "work hard, play hard." Hardest Quiz Show Questions Would you know the answers to some of quizzing TV's hardest questions Who Wants To Be A Millionaire - Earlier this year, fans were left outraged after what they described as the "worst" question in the show's history. Host Jeremy Clarkson asked: 'From the 2000 awards ceremony onwards, the Best Actress Oscar has never been won by a woman whose surname begins with which one of these letters?' The multiple choice answers were between G, K, M and W. In the end, and with the £32,000 safe, player Glen had to make a guess and went for G. It turned out to be correct as Nicole Kidman, Frances McDormand and Kate Winslet are among the stars who have won the Best Actress gong since 2000. The 1% Club - Viewers of Lee Mack's popular ITV show were left dumbfounded by a question that also left the players perplexed. The query went as follows: "Edna's birthday is on the 6th of April and Jen's birthday falls on the 15th of October, therefore Amir's birthday must be the 'X' of January." It turns out the conundrum links the numbers with its position in the sentence, so 6th is the sixth word and 15th is the fifteenth word. Therefore, Amir's birthday is January 24th, corresponding to the 24th word in the sentence. The Chase - The ITV daytime favourite left fans scratching their heads when it threw up one of the most bizarre questions to ever grace the programme. One of the questions asked the player: "Someone with a nightshade intolerance should avoid eating what?" The options were - sweetcorn, potatoes, carrots - with Steve selecting sweetcorn but the correct answer was potatoes. Neil had answered some of the other puzzles correctly and bagged £5,000 in the final round. The actor said: "Wow, that's amazing" upon learning of his winning amount. Combined with his earlier total, it meant Bounds Green Food Bank would be receiving £9,500 altogether. 4
