This Morning viewer gets easy World Cup Q wrong & misses out on £6k prize

A THIS Morning viewer left Ben Shephard falling to the ground in shock after getting an easy World Cup question wrong.

The caller, Anita, had been taking part in the ITV daytime show’s Spin to Win competition – fronted by Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley.

But things quickly went wrong when the caller got a VERY easy question about tonight’s England match at the 2026 World Cup wrong.

Having taken part in the first round of the contest, which is a free spin of the wheel ranging in prizes from £2,000 to £6,000, the caller had managed to bag an impressive £5,000.

Soon after, she was given the choice to top up her earnings by answering the day’s bonus question.

Ben asked her: “Who are England playing in tonight’s match…

“Is it Croatia or Scotland?”

The nervous caller appeared to reluctantly answer as she said: “Scotland!”

Ben was left wincing as he pulled his head into his hands as Cat was also left grimacing as it became obvious that the caller had got the question wrong.

In actual fact, England are playing Croatia in tonight’s 9pm kick-off.

Ben later fully fell to his knees as he put his head on the ground of the This Morning studio.

As a result, she was unable to spin the wheel again in order to get up too a further £6,000.

As such, she walked away with £5,000 of a possible £11,000.

In despair, Ben explained how Scotland had already played their first match over the weekend.
