A recent tricky letters question wiped out 11 players on The 1% Club – but can YOU solve it within 30 seconds? 

The quiz show, hosted by Lee Mack, sees 100 contestants battle it out to get to the final round and answer a question that only 1% of the country can answer.

Unfortunately 11 people got a question wrong as they took on the 70% round.

Presenter Lee, 56, asked the players: ‘If you write the words HIGHER and LOWER with alternating letters, what do you get?’

They were given three options to pick from in just 30 seconds. 

The options included: A) HLOIWGEHERR B) HLIOGWEERR or C) HLIOWGEHERR.

Trying to keep things light while they were trying to figure out the answer, Lee joked: ‘I think that first one is the name of Hagrid’s German cousin.’

The crowd found his comment funny and burst into laughter. 

Lee then revealed that the correct answer was option B HLIOGWEERR.

He continued: ‘We lost 11 players there’ and went on to speak to those who had to leave the compeтιтion.
