The 1% Club players befuddled by challenging letters question - but can YOU defy the odds and solve it?

Daily Mail​a day ago

The 1% Club players were left very confused by a challenging letters question in a previous episode of the ITV show - but can you defy the odds and solve it?
Three contestants waved goodbye to host Lee Mack, 56, and the other players after being asked the 15% question.
Ten players remained and Lee asked them: 'It's now time for the 15% question...
'Which two words, that contain the same five letters as each other but in a different order, mean the same as the two words below?'
The words below were 'fairly silent'.
Making light of the situation, Lee told them: 'And the answer isn't Silent Fairly.'

After revealing that their time was up, three players were given the boot.
'We lost three people there, let's look at the answer,' Lee said.
He continued: 'It's quite and quiet.
'Fairly equals quite and silent equals quiet.'
Lee pointed out: 'Somebody who got it right is Jackie Eminsang. You have just answered the 15% question...
'Did you think you'd get this far?'
'No, not at all,' she replied. 'I'm getting less confident with each question.'
Lee didn't hold back and said: 'That's weird. But I know what you mean. It gets more tense I guess, doesn't it?
Player Jackie was one of the contestants who got the question right - but did you?
'Anyone waiting specifically to see how you get on?'
Jackie replied: 'I came with my dad, actually.
'My dad is here tonight, we came together.'
Lee replied: 'He's on the show?!'
'He is indeed,' Jackie told him.
But unfortunately he was one of the players who had been booted off the programme.
Lee pointed out: 'We haven't spoken to you yet, but you are in blue...
'So I am assuming you've gone.'
Jackie's dad confessed that he 'went a long time ago', with Lee revealing he went on the 80% question.
It comes after The 1% Club aired an alphabet question that wiped out a whopping 15 celebrity players during the latest all-star special.
The likes of Jill Scott, 38, Iain Stirling, 37, Tony Bellew, 42, and Chris Kamara, 67, took to the studio to see if they could get the 1% question.
But at the 30% question round, a huge number of celebrities got the boot after presenter Lee asked the famous faces: 'Which England footballer is spelt out in this code below?' as they were shown nine different symbols.
The players were given the options of: A) Mary Earps, B) Ella Toone and C) Fran Kirby.
After their time was up, Lee said: 'Wow. We've lost 15 of you...
'Let's look at the answer. It's Frank Kirby.'

This divisive 90s shoe trend is back for summer – and this is the pair to wear

Flip flops have officially been given the fashion seal of approval. From smooth leather iterations to jelly styles and classic Havaianas', the sandal style is just as likely to be seen in the city as they are at the beach this season. Minimalist luxury fashion label The Row led the charge last year with its 'beach flip flop' style, plumped for by the likes of Kylie and Kendall Jenner and Zoe Kravitz. Don't be fooled by the name, as these flip flops aren't seen anywhere near the sea. In fact, The Row's newest take for this season is aptly named the 'city flip flop' (£860, But you don't need to spend that eye-watering amount on the style; Ancient Greek Sandals were next with the Saionara jelly sandal (£125, worn by influencers including Lucy Williams and Lizzy Hadfield. The jelly material and pop of colour playfully nod to the Nineties. A more budget way to embrace the trend, the classic flip flop brand Havaianas is officially cool again, thanks to recent collaborations with Zara, Dolce & Gabbana and Gigi Hadid. Of course, the trend isn't for everyone. Some might look on with horror at exposed feet on the commute, while getting your toes out in the office is a divisive topic among colleagues. I cast my own reservations aside to road test the best flip flops to invest in this season – and one pair has shaped up to be my sandal of the season. Perfectly minimalist but sufficiently stylish thanks to the sleek red finish, Russell & Bromley's radford style is a hero investment. At £125, the flats are a more premium choice on the high street, but feel far less flimsy than many leather or faux leather takes. Here's my case for why you should invest too. How we tested I tested these Russell & Bromley flip flops alongside dozens of other pairs from the high street. Considering comfort, styling versatility, value-for-money and aesthetic, here's why I keep returning to the radford style.

First look at new £165million theme park opening in Spanish hotspot – five years after being abandoned

NEW plans have finally been revealed for the reopening of the much-loved Tívoli World amusement park in Spain. Located in Costa del Sol, Tívoli World closed back in 2020 due to financial constraints and the global Covid-19 pandemic. 3 But plans have been approved by authorities who met yesterday and will see if increase in size to include a large tourist complex with shops. First images of the site reveal that it could have a large wheel and a free-fall tower and that the shopping are will have brands like Domino's Pizza, Forster's Hollywood, Rodilla or La Tagliatella, according to Sur in English. These details will be confirmed at a later stage though. There is also expected to be two new hotels. However, the council has agreed that Tívoli will reopen before or alongside the complete complex. In total, the park is expected to cost over €200million (£165million) to redevelop and estimated to create around 1000 new jobs. As part of the agreement, Tivoli World will rehire previous employees - who over the past years have maintained and guarded the park whilst it has been closed to the public. Many former fans of the park took to social media to express their joy at the news. One user said: "It should be brought back bigger and more beautiful. Great." Another added: "Itching to go back to Tivoli." Kids can enter Diggerland for free with this trick Tívoli World was formerly loved for being a family entertainment hub, having originally opened in 1972. The first owner of the attraction - Dane Bent Olsen - dubbed the park as a "factory of illusions" according to Euro Weekly, with fireworks, a rollercoaster, a Chinese pagoda, a lake with boars and around 20 fountains that offered water, light and sound shows. The Mayor, Juan Antonio Lara commented that it was a historic step and that "we have no time to waste". "We're pulling out all the stops to fast-track the process," said Lara. 3 Tivoli World is around a half-an-hour drive from Malaga or about 40 minutes on the train. According to Experience UK, the park is anticipated to reopen in 2028. There are also a number of other great spots to explore surrounding the park including stunning sandy beaches such as Playa de los Álamos. And if you are wanting another attraction for the family, just down the road is Aqualand Torremolinos - which is home to a range of different water slides, a large jacuzzi, children's paradise and will soon have speed racer slides too. A popular beachfront theme park has also been forced to close twice a week. Plus, a major U K theme park to get huge new land by 2027 with rollercoasters, kids rides and indoor attractions. 3

'Obviously with Charlotte leaving it would have been easy to think you'd never see her again but the character is so juicy that everyone jumped at the chance to have her back. 'Christina will be back to her usual tricks causing chaos on the cobbles. 'There's going to be some incredible scenes with her and Jenny clashing. 'And this time she's back for a long stint. She returned to filming recently and she'll be back on screen later this summer. 'It's definitely going to be explosive.' Christina was last seen on the cobbles in May when her daughter Daisy got the better of her and took Jenny Connor's money for herself. While Daisy is now living the life of riley abroad on the cash, Christina was left penniless after trying to double-cross her daughter. Coronation Street's Christina curses Daisy's wedding by inviting bullies And she'll be back in Weatherfield to come face to face with Jenny once more. But who will come out on top between the battle of the Rovers icons? Coronation Street has been contacted for comment.
