In an unprecedented moment on ITV's The 1% Club, contestant Liz chose to walk away with £10,000 instead of risking it all for the £98,000 jackpot, leaving host Lee Mack visibly surprised. The show, which tests contestants with increasingly difficult logic questions, saw only one player reach the final round.
Liz, who needed the money to fund her husband's trip to the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas, revealed she had a premonition the night before. 'I got to this point in my dream last night. I decided I wanted to take the £10,000 but something went wrong and I played the question but got it wrong,' she told Mack.
Faced with the final question, Liz asked the studio audience for advice—a first in the show's history. Mack remarked, 'We have never had anybody ask the studio that question before.' Ultimately, she heeded her dream and took the £10,000, leaving the £98,000 prize unclaimed.
The final 1% question was: 'If you can roll six different numbers using one standard dice, how many different totals can you make by rolling three identical standard dice?' Liz later admitted she would have answered 102, which was incorrect; the correct answer was 16.
Viewers praised Liz's decision on social media, with one writing, 'Well played Liz. Respect for making the correct decision.' Another commented, 'This woman who had that dream must be psychic.'
