Bradley Walsh shocked as contestant says ‘I thought I was on Tipping Point’ – and even Ben Shephard takes a swipe

THE Chase host Bradley Walsh was left open-mouthed after one of his hopeful contestants thought she was on a different quiz show.

In a recent episode, the 62 year old presenter brought contestant Kerry Nelson to the floor in the hope of adding to the overall cash pot.

But when asked if she was ready to start the cash building section of the show, Kerry responded by saying that she was hoping to meet another popular TV host – Ben Shephard.

Kerry said: “I thought I was going to be on Tipping Point.”

And a stunned Bradley was seemingly left unsure at how to respond and so simply asked:”You did?”

To which Kerry added insult to injury by saying: “Yeah, I was expecting to meet Ben Shephard.”

Realising that her comment may have offended Bradley, Kerry was quick to try and ease things by claiming that she wasn’t disappointed to meet him.

However, she didn’t stop there as she then went on to ask if Bradley had seen Ben?

In one of the show’s most frank exchanges, Bradley tried to make light of the awkward situation by adding: “I’m not Ben Shephard. More like a German Shephard.”

However, it wasn’t long before viewers took to social media to comment on Kerry’s comment – and so too did Tipping Point host Ben Shepherd.

Taking to Twitter, he said: ” Well you can’t blame her Brad she’s only human! [shrugging emoji] [laughing emoji].”
