A contestant on The 1% Club's Christmas special was left red-faced after being the only person booted off the game for an incorrect first answer. Lee Mack came back to host a holiday-themed episode of The 1% Club, with festive questions in the air and participants donning Christmas gear for ITV's popular game show. During the initial round, all 100 contestants were asked to spot whether there were more elves or reindeers behind a fence in an image. Despite majority voting elves correctly, one poor bloke named Colin didn't share their luck. On camera, a mortified Colin confessed: "I don't know what to say, I am embarrassed." Lee Mack offered comfort saying, "You don't have to be embarrassed, it is easily done," but Colin continued: "I can't believe I've done this on telly. I've done it now." Attempting to inject some humour into the situation, Lee quipped, "It's easily done. Well no it's not, you was the only one." Back at home, viewers couldn't fathom someone getting booted after just one question, with social media users exclaiming shock, "How did anyone in the history of this planet get it wrong? ", and others ribbing, "Colin never gonna live that down". Later on, host Lee spoke with another participant named Ray Johnson who correctly answered the query, dressed jovially as Santa Claus. Within just seconds of starting the interview, the host slipped up and mistakenly called Ray by another name, asking: "So tell me if you win, what are you going to do with the money Colin? No, Ray, sorry." The cam promptly swung back to Colin as Lee quipped as if he were the one in the hot seat: "'Oh yeah bring up Colin again, thanks, cheers mate." "'They'd forgotten about me but now they've remembered. Oh, another close-up. Great Lee.'". Wrapping up their interaction, Lee offered his regrets: "So sorry Colin". Colin quietly chuckled over Lee's blunder before the presenter switched gears to converse with the contestant resembling Santa. The 1% Club is available to watch on ITV and ITVX.
