Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? viewers baffled over ‘wrong’ Strictly answer-Meghna Amin-Entertainment – Metro

Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? viewers have been left ‘screaming at the screen’ after spotting what appeared to be an error in one of the questions.

Jeremy Clarkson’s ITV gameshow returned to screens last night, and was billed as a ‘New’ episode on Sky, but appeared to be very out of date.

It kicked off midway through contestant Emily’s attempt to score the cash prize, but viewers weren’t happy with the first question.

For £4,000, former Top Gear star Clarkson asked her: ‘Which of these is the only person to have been a regular judge on both Strictly Come Dancing and Britain’s Got Talent?’

The options included Amanda Holden, Bruno Tonioli, Darcey Bussell and Alesha Dixon.

‘I think I know the answer, but I’m not 100% sure,’ Emily said, before using her ask the audience lifeline for the correct answer.

They did manage to help her out, with the majority answering Alesha, which, according to the quiz, was correct.

However, viewers were not as convinced, as Bruno has also become a regular judge on Britain’s Got Talent in the last year.

‘Technically there’s 2 answers to that question now,’ @Samantha22356123 wrote on X, with @lbozza17 echoing: ‘Erm how old is this episode?? That question now has 2 correct answers.’

@NadOngPhotos wrote: ‘#whowantstobeamillionaire what the? The question about strictly and bgt is a weird question as 2 of them was in strictly.’

‘That Bruno and Alesha question is weird. I can only conclude this episode of #whowantstobeamillionaire is old and is a repeat. Anyone? Is this more cheap telly from ITV?’ @Imtherealanon questioned, to which @ushouldbeontv replied: ‘Seemingly these are old ones ‘in the can’ by not broadcast before.’

Meanwhile, @RightEyeReynolz said: ‘I feel like the answer to that Strictly/BGT question was wrong.’

‘Surely Bruno has done both ‘regularly’ and more recently too? ‘@Tweet_Twat_Twot agreed.

‘I can’t be the only person screaming at the screen saying the answer is also Bruno?!! This is meant to be a new episode?’ @adamdowling said.

‘When was #wwtbam recorded? Surely that question wasn’t right?’ @PaulCra47154521 said.

Ahead of the episode airing, an ITV continuity announcer had explained: ‘Allanswers were correct at the time of recording.’

Mis-Teeq star Alesha became a judge on Strictly in 2009, before moving to Britain’s Got Talent in 2012.

Bruno meanwhile was a judge on the BBC competition until 2022, and replaced David Walliams on Britain’s Got Talent the following year.

YouTube sensation KSI has stepped in as a temporary replacement for Bruno this year, as the Italian star is busy filming Dancing With The Stars in the US.

Metro has approached ITV for comment.

Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? is available to watch on ITVX.
