One lucky player managed to bag a whopping £96,000 on The 1% Club after answering the final question – but can you solve it?
Saturday night’s instalment of the ITV quiz show, hosted by Lee Mack, saw 100 contestants attempt to win a huge cash prize.
The programme’s questions were put to the public, with the percentage who got it right determining the difficulty of each round. Aptly, the final quiz is one that just 1 per cent of the public answered correctly.
On this occasion, just one contestant out of the three remaining managed to get the very last question correct.
Lee asked: ‘I keep forgetting my four-digit pin number. I know each digit is higher than the previous digit but I need this diagram to remember it. What is my four-digit pin number?’
The question was followed by a sequence of letters.

Lee revealed the answer to be 1489, with the numbers written out in the diagram.
Only one player, called Dominic, answered correctly and bagged the huge £96,000 prize pot.
‘It’s 1489 which means Dominic Jackson, you have just joined the 1% club and have won everything in the prize pot, £96,000,’ Lee exclaimed.
During the same episode, host Lee Mack left viewers outraged after making a ‘brutal’ comment about a contestant’s appearance.
Lee made the comment after asking contestant Diane Moorland what she would do with the prize money if she emerged victorious.
Diane said that she’d love to get a nose job with any potential windfall.
While Lee appeared shocked at first, when Diane insisted that she has never liked the shape of her nose, he eventually concurred that cosmetic surgery would be a good idea.
He said: ‘To be fair, it does look like thought that if you took your glᴀsses off the nose would come off as well.’
While Diane herself laughed at Lee’s response, it did not get a positive reaction from viewers.

They were quick to take to social media so share their outrage about the host’s insensitive comment.
One even said it would only have been acceptable if Lee had cleared the remark with the contestant prior to filming.
The outraged viewers wrote: ‘Gosh, I hope the lady with the nose cleared it for Lee to take the p*** before the show. That was brutal!’;
‘F*** sake Lee. She’ll definitely have a complex about her nose now!’;
‘It was so mean of him.’;
‘That was quite insensitive.’
