TV presenter Ben Shephard has finally answered some of the most asked questions about Tipping Point but some fans have since raise eyebrows over a suspicious counter

ITV's Tipping Point, the popular TV game show that has kept viewers on the edge of their seats for a decade, is more than just a simple game. Contestants answer questions posed by host Ben Shephard to earn the chance to drop a coin into the machine, with each counter equating to £50 in prize money. The stakes are raised in the final round with the jackpot counter worth a whopping £10,000, and the potential for even bigger winnings if it drops with a double counter.

Offstage, a runner steps in to tally the dropped counters, which allows Ben to update contestants on their earnings. This same runner is responsible for clearing the counters that have fallen. Each counter is buffed before episodes to avoid any marks being televised. Though Ben confirms the game's legitimacy, speculation amongst viewers persists, with some claiming 'secret magnets' manipulate outcomes. The rumour mill churns out theories suggesting the show holds hidden elements.
