Tipping Point fans swoon over ‘stunning’ contestant as Ben Shephard praises performance

TIPPING Points fans were left swooning over a contestant on the show - and she wasn't just a pretty face.

Wednesday afternoon's episode of the ITV quiz show saw Ellie, Kelvin and Carol take on the extraordinary machine in the hope of winning a cash jackpot.

As the trio introduced themselves to host Ben Shephard, viewers soon turned their attention to one contestant in particular.

Ellie made it to the second round and went head-to-head with rival Carol.

And the aspiring actor soon swept her away and placed the £10,000 jackpot counter into the machine as Ben praised her tactics throughout.

Heading into the final, viewers were left in awe, with dozens flocking to Twitter to air their thoughts on her "stunning" appearance.

Alongside an array of red love heart emojis, one person penned "Ellie is actually so stunning. Wow."

In reply to their tweet, someone else said: "You're right, she really is. Imagine that - beauty and brains. What a package!"

While a third remarked: "Ellie isn't just a pretty face, she's quite clever, too!"

In the final, Ellie failed to capitalise on a series of questions as counters went begging.

Despite missed chances, however, she left the studio with a respectable £2,100 which, she says, will go towards a "dream holiday" to Bali with her boyfriend.

Tuesday evening's instalment of the show also focused on the appearance of a player.

Sporting a cleanly shaven head, Tim was likened to Karl Pilkington, best known for An Idiot Abroad and The Moaning of Life.

Tipping Point airs weekdays at 4pm on ITV.
