A TIPPING Point contestant has made a savage swipe at a rival player.
A question about music in 1980s caused contestants to make digs about each other in Thursday’s episode of Tipping Point.
Contestant Raj bravely joked fellow player Hugh was decades past his prime.
He roasted his rival about his age in front of the nation.
Host Ben Shephard asked: “In 1984, which band had the UK Number 1 and 2 singles at the same time with ‘Two Tribes’ and ‘Relax’?”
Raj said: “I don’t actually know, wasn’t born that year.
“I really feel like he [Hugh] does know it because he was probably in his prime.”
Ben was in stiches and Hugh saw the funny side too as he quipped: “I still am.”
Ben then asked Hugh: “Were you still in your prime in 1984?”
Hugh replied: “I was, actually.”
He answered the question correctly with ‘Frankie Goes To Hollywood’.
Later, Raj was knocked out on £1000 before the final with Hugh sitting on £2400.
He managed to bag the jackpot counter, meaning he walked away with a whopping £10,000 to enjoy as well as a mystery prize gift of tickets to a picnic concert.
This comes after Ben stripped down to his trunks for a freezing cold swim while on holiday in Cornwall.
Tipping Point airs weekdays on ITV1.
