A picture that looked impossible to get wrong… somehow left The 1% Club contestants completely stumped. What seemed like one of the easiest visual puzzles of the episode quickly turned into a surprise elimination as players struggled to spot the tiny detail hiding in plain sight before the 30-second clock expired. When the answer was finally revealed, viewers were left split between those who solved it instantly and those who couldn’t believe they had missed something so obvious. Sometimes the hardest puzzles aren’t the ones with complicated clues—they’re the ones that make you trust your eyes too quickly.

Lee Mack, 56, took to the ITV airwaves once again to present the latest edition of the smash-hit gameshow.

The 1% Club is a unique format that doesn’t test players on their general knowledge like other shows.

Instead, it tests them on their logic, reasoning skills and common sense.

100 players are whittled down, question by question, as they are tasked with solving different riddles.

They aim to get to the last round where only one percent of the public could answer the final question correctly. The 1% Club viewers stumped over a trick word question knocking out 11 people

In the latest edition, Lee showed the contestants three images that appeared to be a rope, a rocket and some test tubes.

He then asked them: “What common three word phrase is represented here?”

As the contestants put their thinking caps on, he quipped: “Looks like a selection of ways my wife has thought to get rid of me.”

He then revealed that four people had been knocked out and went on to reveal the answer.

“Not Rocket Science,” he explained.

He then spoke to Daisy, a contestant who used her pass during the round – because she didn’t know the answer.

Daisy explained: “I saw it just after the time as well, but yeah I couldn’t put it together in that time.”

“Are you a competitive person?” he asked her.

“Yeah, straight out of Uni all my friends were signing up to climb Kilimanjaro and I was like yeah that sounds like a great idea.”

“Did you do it?” asked Lee.

“Yeah, I was the only one that got to the top, as well, cos I got that bad altitude sickness, I didn’t know where I was.

“I didn’t know my own name, nothing.” she replied.

Lee said: “You just wandered up there confused to the top?”

“Yeah, I thought my guide was trying to kill me at one point, it was awful but yeah I went to the top,” replied Daisy.

“Well, listen well done Daisy, You’re still with us,” replied Lee before he went onto the next question.
