Rob had won the first two episodes and was looking for his hat-trick on Thursday.

The funny man was in the lead up until the last round, Answer Smash, with Phil two points behind.

Phil managed to get the last one before the buzzer went, with Richard the revealing it was a tie, with both men scoring nine points.

The host then showed them one more Answer Smash, and Phil was the quickest to buzz in and get the answer right, giving him the win.

One wrote: "Come on @DeeringRob. Confession time. You threw that didn’t you?!#HouseofGames."

Another added: "Tuffers turns the week on it’s head; fast bowling tonight! #HouseofGames."

But others weren't as impressed with one writing: "#Houseofgames The current players have been a complete turn off.

"Giving each other answers, having to have huge clues. Tedious."
