Tipping Point

Ben Shephard presents an arcade‑styled quiz show where participants aim for a £10,000 jackpot. Each contestant drops a token into one of four separate chutes, hoping the chosen path will secure the top prize for themselves ultimately during the game.

The show is a stand‑alone episode of a generic programme, presented as an arcade‑themed quiz. Ben Shephard takes on the role of host, guiding participants through the game’s colourful, machine‑like set‑up. In each instalment, the core challenge centres on contestants releasing tokens down one of four separate chutes. The choice of chute is theirs to make, and the aim is simple: guide the token to the winning path and claim the £10,000 jackpot that lies at the end of the successful run. The format relies on the tension of watching each token’s descent, with the four possible routes adding an element of chance and strategy. As the tokens tumble, the audience follows the suspense of whether the chosen chute will deliver the prize. Ultimately, the episode culminates when a contestant’s token reaches the designated winning chute, securing the £10,000 reward. The combination of Ben Shephard’s hosting, the arcade‑style mechanics, and the clear goal of the jackpot creates a concise yet engaging quiz experience.
