Tipping Point contestant 'breaks tradition' during exit - and fans aren't happy

Tipping Point challenged another group of contestants to battle it out for the jackpot on Tuesday afternoon.

Host Ben Shephard watched as the latest contestants took it in turns to answer questions, and play the game.

In round one, Ben asks a series of questions with each contestant offered the chance to play or pass a counter - if they answer correctly.

The counter can be entered into the machine in any drop zone they choose.

Each round brings an elimination, depending who has won the most amount of money.

On Tuesday, it was Katy who sadly didn't make it into the second round.

After only securing £150, she had made up the least amount of prize money and was first to be eliminated.

For her final counter she hadn't secured it, after getting her question wrong.

Stefan went on to win her counter, and apologised as it became apparent that she would be leaving.

As Ben said farewell to the contestant, he did his usual "thank you for playing" message.

At this point, the contestant normally says what a great day they've had - but Katy simply said: "Thank you."

While this is a perfectly fine response, not everyone was happy and claimed she'd broken the tradition of Tipping Point exits.

One fan said: "I'm disappointed to see that Katy hasn't had a wonderful day."

Another tweeted: "Katy didn't say she had a lovely day, ignorant cow."

A third added: "Katy had a blast."

Tipping Point airs weeknights at 4pm on ITV.
