Tipping Point viewers were left distracted on earlier this week as the show’s ‘most stunning’ contestant appeared on the ITV show in a bid to win some dosh.
ITV bosses are currently showing reruns of the programme as host Ben Shephard recovers from a leg injury, and eagle-eyed fans were left gasping when they laid eyes on flame-haired guest, Bethany.
The Hertfordshire-born beauty attracted mass attention – not just for her looks, but for the rookie mistake she made during the thrilling episode of the much-loved gameshow.
When she was first introduced to viewers by host Ben, mesmerized viewers flocked to Twitter to gush over the ‘lovely’ contestant.
“Wow, Tipping Point’s Bethany is a true English Rose,” gushed one viewer.
“I hope Bethany wins, she seems to be the kindest,” another shared.
Elsewhere, someone else swooned: “That Bethany is probably the most stunning and beautiful person to appear on Tipping Point.”
Although the natural beauty appeared to have won viewers over with her looks from the outset, her decision to pass on a move during the game ended up infuriating fans as she was booted home following the rookie mistake.
Bethany decided to skip her own turn and give it to her fellow contestant Zoe, despite the fact there were counters hanging over the edge of the machine.
And when it eventually came to her go, she failed to get any counters down.
Naturally, fans flocked to Twitter again to share their disappointment after Bethany’s controversial move.
"That'll teach Bethany to pass, especially when counters are hanging over the edge," one fumed, adding: Why would you pass?" one viewer wrote.
Another added: "Well you shouldn't have passed Bethany should you."
“Bethany was doing so well and then she just went and ruined it for all of us,” someone else complained.
Meanwhile, another viewer teased: "Bethany - how generous. What an own goal that was! #tippingpoint ."
It comes amid Ben Shepard's recovery after he injured his leg a number of weeks ago.
Last month, Ben informed fans that he had ruptured his ACL, tore his meniscus and fractured his leg.
Ben has since had surgery on his leg and recently quipped he has the support of a "bionic" leg to help him through his physio and rehabilitation.
While he recovers, ITV bosses have decided to halt filming and instead, are showing re-runs of previous episodes which first aired last year.
ITV Tipping Point continues to air weekdays from 4pm on ITV1 with episodes also available for viewers to catch up on the ITV Hub streaming platform.
