Tipping Point host Ben Shephard could not contain his laughter at a player's very wrong guess during Friday's repeat.
Ben normally remains composed no matter how silly a wrong guess may be, but this time he could not resist.
A delighted Ben told player Sharon that it was definitely in the top three funniest wrong answers he had ever heard on the show.
During her quick fire round, Ben asked: " Papillon is the French for which flying insect?"
After several seconds staring blankly, Sharon replied: "Dog?"
"Butterfly!" replied Ben, and Sharon burst into laughter, realising what she had said.
When her round was over, Ben giggled: "We have had some good answers on Tipping Point, Sharon.
"But I think that's gone into my top three!
"Papillon is French for which insect, the old flying dog!"
Sharon and her fellow contestants all laughed as red-faced Sharon giggled: "I can't believe I said dog!"
Sadly, Sharon lost her place in the game in this round as she only earned £850, while her competitor Carly won £900.
Ben remarked: "Sharon, you have come so so close!
"But let's take the £300 and put it into your bank, we can see there's just a flying dog in it!
"Sharon, I am so sorry it's been absolutely brilliant and hilarious, but at £850 you and your flying dogs have found your tipping point, but great to meet you."
"Thanks a lot, thank you!" said Sharon.
One tickled viewer tweeted: "According to Sharon dogs can fly, I only watch this for the comedy value #tippingpoint ".
Another added: " #TippingPoint just now(I know, I’m bored) “Papillion is the French name for which blind, flying insect?” “Dog.”
"Sharron, take a f**king now girl, that’s the greatest answer to any question I’ve EVER heard."
A third added: " #tippingpoint #Sharron there is a dog breed called papillon.. but obvs it’s not a flying insect.."
"If ever someone has deserved to lose it was sharron after the dog answer #tippingpoint," joked another.
" get that papillon is a dog but f**king hell, it's not a flying insect. #TippingPoint," quipped another.
