Tipping Point’s Ben Shephard tears up as contestant wins £20k jackpot – the biggest ever

TIPPING Point host Ben Shepherd teared up on tonight’s show as contestant Clive won £20,000 – the biggest jackpot in the show’s history.

In the eight years the ITV game show has been running, Clive is the only one to tip over a double jackpot token in the final round to bag the maximum prize.



Ben Shephard was teary eyed after a record-breaking Tipping Point win

And he was bowled over by his achievement, telling Ben: “I am knocked over. Thank you so much.”

Emotional Ben said: “Clive, I have stood in front of this machine over a thousand times. The only time that has happened was when it was on a tray that didn’t get taken.

“Clive, you’ve done it. I can’t believe you have done it!”



Clive took home £20,000


He hugged the host after scooping the jackpot


And screamed with delight

The pair hugged, before the prizewinner admitted: “I am welling up.”

“How does that feel Clive?” asked Ben.

A teary Clive answered: “Fantastic.”
