Tipping Point viewers 'horrified' as Len Goodman shows off cheeky tactic to win

Tipping Point has worked its viewers up into a frenzy despite it being a repeat from times past due to a schedule shake-up.

This week the ITV quiz show, fronted by Ben Shephard, has moved as the Cheltenham Festival dominates the afternoon on the channel.

This has meant that fans of the show have been treated to special editions, with Tipping Point's Best Ever Finals showcasing some of the most memorable finishes from recent times.

On Tuesday, it was the turn of former Strictly Come Dancing judge, Len Goodman, to be taking on the quiz and set social media ablaze with his tactics.

The 76-year-old believed he had a sure-fire may of beating the machine and he pointed out to Ben, 46, that by spreading his legs, he will have better balance and an improved chance of winning out.

Of course, viewers had something to say about this as Len showed that he was fully prepared to follow through with his convictions.

Taking to Twitter, one fan joked: "Len's leg spread. Gonna be like two snooker balls in sock."

Another tweeted: "Spread legs again"

The 'best ever' compilation was not floating the boat of some viewers though, who bemoaned that the compilations were being shown instead of the regular version of the quiz.

One viewer ranted on Twitter: "What's happened to Tipping Point? Are we now seeing the COVID lack of filming?"

Another added: "Best ever finals? Not today!"

While a third bemoaned: "I can't wait for the regular Tipping Point episode to return."

Tipping Point isn't the only show affected by the afternoon reshuffle due to the horse racing festival.

Loose Women has been taken off air for the week but fans will be pleased to know that normality returns on Monday, March 22, with Tipping Point returning to its 4pm slot from then.

*Tipping Point Best Ever Finals continues on ITV on Wednesday at 4.30pm.
