Tipping Point fans baffled by player’s ‘potato’ answer to Ben Shephard question

Viewers couldn’t help but see the funny side of Friday’s episode of Tipping Point as a contestant accidentally said a weird answer to Ben Shephard's question.

Contestants on Tipping Point are often faced with an immense amount of pressure while on the show and a contestant named Jennifer evidently felt the pressure more than most.

Jennifer was on her last legs while on the show, and though she was given several chances to make money, she was unable to secure any funds in her bank.

To top things off, Ben asked Jennifer a fairly simple question, but her answer left viewers rather baffled.

Ben asked: "Which small round vegetable, shares its name with a bright shade of green?"

Quickly jumping on her buzzer, Jennifer responded "potatoes".

Viewers couldn't help but see the funny side to it all and took to Twitter to air their views.

One Tipping Point fan joked: "To be fair, potatoes can be green."

Another said: "I'm going to paint the lounge potato #tippingpoint."
