A Tipping Point finalist lost out on a £10,000 jackpot in what host Ben Shephard described as the 'toughest show ever'.

Wednesday's edition of the ITV game show saw player Yvonne triumph over her two competitors Dai and Amna in the episode which Ben, the players and viewers at home all spotted was unusually difficult.

With the counters reluctant to fall from the machine, Ben could be heard describing the episode as "one of the toughest games [he's] ever seen" and a "heartbreaker".

Yvonne eventually collected £3,450 and chose to go home with her money.

However, a playback showed she would have walked away with the jackpot, had she continued.

Chiming in on Twitter, Tipping Point viewers also shared their thoughts on the tough episode and the hard-to-fall counters.

One viewer complained: "They've made the counters harder to drop on purpose."

Another added: "Six counters in and none out. What witchery is this?"

Meanwhile, a third viewer joked: "Extra strength magnets today on Tipping Point."

Another quipped: "The toughest game."

"This is bloody painful," a final viewer concluded.

Speaking about her decision not to take the trade, Yvonne said: "I don't think [three counters will be enough].

"This machine has not been kind all day so I think I'm going to take the money please, Ben."

Tipping Point airs at 4pm on weekdays on ITV.
