All 100 players start with £1,000, but should they pass on a question, it goes into the prize pot.
Each person can only do this once – so it’s important to pick the right moment.
Lee asked for the 45% question: “Which is the odd one out? A) Dapple, B) Slime, C) Spear or D) Rabbit.
Contestants only had 30 seconds to identify the correct answer and lock it in.
Once time was up, the comedian revealed: “We’ve only lost three of you, but there was 13 passes on that one.”
The right answer was: D) Rabbit, as, “Rabbit is the only word when you take away the first letter it does not spell out the name of a fruit.”
“Dapple” becomes Apple, “Slime” becomes Lime and “Spear” becomes Pear.
It’s not the first time that contestants were caught out on a tough question.
A previous episode saw host Lee left shocked as a record-number of players used their pass.
A whopping 46 players were left baffled on a tricky word question and opted to utilise their pass on the show.
As well as the 46 people who opted to pass to the next question, a further seven got it wrong meaning that more than half of the show’s contestants failed to arrive at a correct answer.
The question that caught them out, read: “Which of these words can have two of its letters swapped over and still result in a valid word?”
The players were then given three multiple choice answers to choose from – Conversation, Dialogue and Chat.
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.Lee went on to reveal the answer as Conversation.
The V and S could be swapped with one another in order to create the word – Conservation.
Addressing the astonishing number of passes, Lee said to the players: “Now, you’ve just broken a record you lot, because, between you, you have just used 46 passes!”
The 1% Club airs on ITV1 and ITVX.
